Rimple Narulah defends Ramayana costumes amid accuracy criticism

Rimple Narulah defends Ramayana costumes amid accuracy criticism

A new movie called Ramayana, based on a very old Indian story, is being made with famous actors.

Before the movie even came out, people saw pictures of the characters' clothes.

Some people did not like the outfits because they thought the clothes did not look like they were from the olden times.

Many people asked why Sita was wearing a blouse.

The person who made the clothes, named Rimple, explained that she did a lot of research.

She said she used natural colors and fabrics that people used long ago.

She also said the colors of the clothes show what each character is feeling, like sadness or goodness.

She asked people to wait until the movie comes out before judging.

She said the costumes were also made so actors could move easily while doing fight scenes.

Rimple hopes the costumes will one day be shown in a museum.
