The other mix of characters of Laxmana, Lord Hanuman, Vibhishan, Indrajeet try to hold their own in the retelling of this epic. The answer to this lies in the nuanced portrayal of Ravana in Sako’s adaptation, something that Khan should have taken inspiration from. But Ravana is a tricky character – he was a learned scholar and Lord Shiva’s devotee, but also the antagonist who abducted Sita. Having played some iconic bad guys, Khan’s Lankesh is a half-hearted or rather confused mix of all the other bad guys. Khan, whose acting prowess is known to all, seems lost in his portrayal of the bad guy. Moving on to Saif Ali Khan’s Ravana – there is much left to be desired. Most of the scenes involve Sanon’s Sita waiting patiently and in constant consternation for Raghava. She is present only in two primary settings – in the forest before ‘Sita haran’ and then in the garden in Lanka. However, she has barely been given any dialogues.
