Very Very Excellent !!!

His Holiness, His Divine Grace, Maharishi Ramanand Sagar has done excellent job.

From all the characters in the epic, I like His Divine Grace Ram and Her Divine Grace Sita.

I would like to add that in reality Ram or sita could not have been better than they appear in epic.

Thank you very much for your kind considerations.

With Very Best Regards.
