Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan & Shri Krishna are works of art that deserve to be seen without tampering with the artist’s vision through edits like those in the DVDs. #RamayanOnDDNational #RestoreRamayan @ChikhliaDipika @arungovil12 @LahriSunil @swwapniljoshi

Today’s episode of #RamayanOnDDNational skips Lakshman-Urmila reunion and the key scene of Ram making Bharat forgive Kaikeyi, which is so vital to his character. DVDs have also cut it. Time to #RestoreRamayan @DDnational @shivsagarchopra @arungovil12 https://t.co/y0gOGrMqJ1
