RAMAYANAM WITH NEW TECHNOLOGIES ON SUN TV CHANNEL

BY N.THYAGARAJAN

The Sagar Arts earlier produced Ramayanam and was telecast in various TV Channels. Now the very same Sagar Arts has produced the very same epic with the inputs of various technologies to attract the TV Viewers. The story of Ramayana is welcomed not only in India but in other countries. The production company is aware that Ramayana is an epic and would not leave the minds of the people who have earlier read the story. Keeping this in mind, Sagar Arts has produced this new serial in the Baroda Sagar Film City by creating the Ayodhya Country with broad streets and people with a number of houses and filmed this new Ramayana. Besides, one could feel that they are living in the Ayodhya country. The Sagar Arts has introduced various technologies for the scenes of the war between Demon Ravana and Lord Rama and his brother Lakshmana. Each and every arrows of Rama's and Lakshmana's will speak the volume of the Ayodhya King Rama's valour who is said to be the reincarnation of Lord Maha Vishnu. Similarly, the Hanuman's services to Rama and His consort could not be described in a word. His valour is filmed by using the computer technologies. For example, Hanuman's carrying of the Sanjeevini Mountain to cure Lakshmana who becomes unconscious during the Ramayana War. The scene was filmed with Anjaneya appearing from the earth to the Sky carrying and flying towards the battle field to rescue Rama's brother Lakshmana is quite appreciable. Similar, techniques were used in this new Ramayana to be screened on the Sun TV Channel on all Sundays between 10.30 AM and 11.30 AM.

The music of the Ramayana episode was scored by Ravindra Jain and Unni Krishnan, Chithra and Chinmaye have sung the title songs. The Art Director Omang Kumar has made big sets for the Ramayana and the apt costumes were used by Nisha Sagar.
