Shahab Shamsi, the creative director for Ramayan, remembered the behind-the-scene preparation and said that the most ethereal moment in the history of mankind is the Swayamvar of Ram and Sita. Much before anyone else would reach the sets, around 10 kg of roses and mogras would reach the set regularly for this specific scene Additionally, as Ramayan was shot in Baroda where the temperature was over 40 degrees back then, flowers were brought in from Mumbai on a daily basis by the first flight for an entire week to make sure the grandness of the episode is maintained. A specially erected set of 100 meters by 100 meters was created to ensure that the scene was as real and natural as it could be.
