Yes, I saw that article on Kaushalya. I was actually concerned about what they wrote since I saw that article, and today's episode only confirmed my misgivings. They are adding unnecessary drama with Kaushalya's character. They can show Kaushalya grieving for Shanta, but for her to be bitter towards Dashrath is against her character. 🤔

Overall, it was a good episode and I do like the grandeur of the show, but grandeur is not enough for me to keep watching. Ramayan is very close to my heart and I can't bear to see any of the characters distorted in the name of drama. As long as the characters remain true to the epic, I will keep watching. Technology and grandeur are secondary to the story and characters.

I have given 3/5.its OK for first episode. visualizations are really awesome. real story starts after teen age. so I've to wait for conclusion. but first episode makes me worry that CVS will project as Ramayana like Mahabharata. in Mahabharata characters were obsessed to advice others but in Ramayana characters are obsessed with their own self morals. so I think CVS should not make over characters to lose Ramayana's originality.

I would rate Siya Ke Ram as 4/5.

The execution was very good, but the long episode introduced so many things. Some of which I was not aware of. Hope I will get aware of them with discussions in forum.

I loved Sumitra & Siya's entry.

4/5 only because I felt something lacking in Kaikeyi Ma and Kaushalya Ma's character. There was this void I felt. I really can't explain. Otherwise, it was perfect.

I have nothing against the fact that they showed the Shanta story in this Ramayan, because it is a popular and well known story, BUT Kaushalya was a very kind and happy woman who treated her husband with the utmost respect and love even though she knew Kaikeyi was his favorite wife. Actually, Sumitra is the queen who is occasionally jealous of Kaikeyi and goes to Kaushalya with complaints of their husband's unfairness, but Kaushalya always assured Sumitra that Dashrath was a fair and kind ruler, and not to think bad about their husband.

Kaushalya is supposed to be kind, wise and just. Why else would Lord Vishnu have been born to her? A woman would have to have an ideal character to bear God in her womb, and the way Nikhil Sinha portrayed Kaushalya, she seems like a very bitter and unhappy woman. Didn't like that very much.

You're only disliked the way they're potraying Maa Kaushalya? I didn't like what they did to Maa Kaikeyi.That was so unlike her. There was a story that Kaikeyi Maa loved Lord Rama more than Maa Kaushalya, Maa Sumitra and Dashratha Ji put together. And that's why she begged Lord Shri Hari Vishnu to choose her to face the wrath of the people for ages to come because she said that she would be lucky and blessed enough to have her name taken in Rama's story, even as the villain. And that was exactly why Lord Rama worshipped her first. She looked like a regular TV soap greyish lady. My heart sunk real bad ever since. After this I saw each and everything with a little doubt. I even ended up frowning at the crow, well only till he came to his human form.
