In India, Goddess Sita is considered the epitome of devotion, tolerance, and sacrifice. Almost 99 percent of average Indians know Sita only through shows like ‘Ramayana’ or tales related to the same. However, all these TV Shows show the same thing. No doubt there are many books penned by celebrated authors but most of these either portray the same stereotypical images or try to draw the out feminist perspective. That is about to change. For the first time ever audiences in India as well as across the globe will get to know an all-together different facet of this divine character.
How it is destined to be a Kangana movie:
Yes, you guessed it right. We are talking about the upcoming bollywood movie ‘Sita: The Incarnation’, which stars Kangana Ranaut in the lead. The makers have finally locked Kangana for the role after contacting almost all the ‘A’ list actresses. Alia Bhatt was the top favorite of the makers, as per the producer Prem Joshi. But according to reports, Alia interfered in the script and wanted to scrap the child part of the character, and emphasize the youth part. The makers couldn’t agree to her terms. SO shw out. Next on the list was Deepika Padukone, but the NCB summons and drug consumption allegations made, had the makers thinking twice. In fact, they received a lot of flak on social media just by announcing her name. Kareena Kapoor Khan’s name had also surfaced for the project, but the makers made it clear that Kareena was not approached for the ‘Sita’ project, but for another historic movie.
The Sita without Ram
Anyway, the project was destined to fall in Kangana’s kitty. Kangana is indeed one of the finest actresses that the Indian film industry has witnessed. The makers also seem quite happy about having her onboard and have enough confidence that Kangana will be able to pull off this INR 150 crore worth project. It is reported that the movie will not be about her abduction, 14 years of isolated forest living or anything about her post-marriage aspects. Her (Sita’s) excellence in scriptures, her skill in horse riding, management, etc will be shown in the movie. Interestingly, the movie will start from her childhood and end at the ‘swayamvar’. Hope, Bollywood’s “Sita” almost without Lord Ram manages to deliver something new and inspiring.
