The latest Ramayana series has sparked online trolling over its costume design, prompting a revisit of Ramanand Sagar's 1980s production, which set a high standard for authenticity.

The new Ramayana series has faced backlash over its costume choices, with social media users calling them inaccurate or low quality. Critics argue that the costumes fail to reflect the epic's historical and cultural context. In contrast, Ramanand Sagar's 1980s adaptation is often cited as a benchmark, praised for its detailed and authentic costume design. The comparison highlights the importance of cultural accuracy in televised retellings of religious epics.
