Really?That was such a nice show bt closed down midway coz of low TRPs.😳
Well I enjoyed the show and morever I loved the sets and the BG and songs selected were mindblowing.But to some extent it was modernasied to a love story coz it was on starone I guess.Originally posted by: JanakiRaghunathI saw only a few epis of Shakuntala, but wasn't really that impressed.😳 It seemed a bit too westernized for a mythological show, especially one that was supposed to take place during the Krita Yuga, which is before Treta Yuga and even more strict in rules.
Was it good?

Janu u are absolutely right abt ramayan n shakuntala.The actor played Dushyant was gautam sharma and he played very well,even though the actress Neha mehta who played shakuntala was also good bt she was looking older than dushyant.That made a huge diff in the show too.And yes they added some fictional chars too into the show.They themselves wrote it.Originally posted by: JanakiRaghunath
I'm guessing someone from the Ramayan Forum knows, I'll ask them. Yeah, Sangeeta Kapure looked too young to play a Rajmata. In fact, even the actress who did Kaikeyi looked too young. Only Rajni Chandra was perfect in terms of age. It seems as if the older mythos tended to use older people for roles, even if the actors were too old, while the new mythos tend to use younger people for roles, even if they are too young. A balance should be kept between both.Seeing as the Sagars took Shakuntala, the songs would obviously be good, and yeah, the sets too were really pretty, but personally I would not prefer a mythological show to be aired on Star One. They tend to romanticize everything and make love stories a bit melodramatic, not suitable for a mythological show. I liked the actor who played Raja Dushyant, but I did not like the girl who played Shakuntala. The story's accuracy was okay...the overall storyline was correct but the small incidents in-between seemed made-up to me. I read a few updates of the epis on the forum and often wondered what they were talking about.
