...I didn't follow Indra's & Narad's conversation - your account of it was correct. I understand what Narad is saying, but equating Jarasandha, Rukmi, Sishupala, Shalva & Dantavatra to the 5 senses is really... senseless π€ͺDon't know what was the source of that explanation, whether it is there in any scripture or not π...My problem was not so much the actors selected, but more so the make-up & costumes. First of all, the crowns - all royalty wore them, not just Krishna & Bheeshmaka. After that, the costimes that Jarasandha wore looked more ancient Greek than Aryavarta. And the tunics that Sishupala, Rukmi and others were wearing made no sense whatsoever given the period.If they can get Krishna's costume right, why not the others? All they have to do is copy the same style, and maybe vary the colors for easier identification.Yes, costumes has been a problem area of this show from the beginning (remember Balram's head gear π). It seems that they haven't paid much attention to the costumes of all the characters except Krishna, which is the only perfect one...I was refering to the actors, yes... You know Shishupal was not looking THAT BAD π as he should have been, actually he has a nice appearance π... (my personal opinion π)
