Designers defend modern look of characters in 'Ramayana' film

The costume team for 'Ramayana' has spoken out following negative reactions to the characters' outfits, explaining that the choices were driven by artistic vision rather than historical precision. They stated that their goal was to help an age-old epic resonate visually with a modern audience. Much of the backlash focused on the attire of Lara Dutta, cast as Queen Kaikeyi, who is seen in a bordered saree, and Sai Pallavi, who plays Sita, whose saree during her 14-year exile has been described as too contemporary.
