One thing about Rama's confusion - if you look at 2 monkeys (of the same species), they'll look the same to you too, unless you've had time to have a really long, close look at them. So just b'cos he couldn't distinguish b/w them during their first fight doesn't imply that those 2 were identical twins. Also keep in mind that in their first encounter, that was the first time that Rama had ever seen Vali. Another thing - men do not notice what clothes people wear, unless they're really outrageously outlandish: therefore, the assumptions that serials make that not only did Vali and Sugriva look alike, but they dressed alike as well, is not well founded. Like Sugriva could have worn a red vastra, Vali could have worn green, and Rama would still have been justified in not knowing who was who. So the garland was a good idea.
In fact, in the story of their birth, Surya's sperms got to Riksh-raj's armpits, while Indra's sperms got to her hair. So these 2 weren't identical twins the way, say, Marie-Kate and Ashley Olsen are.
Yeah, I do appreciate getting the complete cast list of that series' actors.
