Question for indians here, regarding Ramayana and Mahabharata

[HariPrasad]

1. Do educated Hindus in India even religious ones regard these epics as just mythology or fiction?

Epic.

With Satellite pictures of Ramsetu, our beliefs are reinforced.

Trikuta was the name of mountain ranges in Lanka.

But I haven't familiarized with that word, do you know the present name?

Looks like Samanala mountain range.

Tamil Hindus consider it as the footprint of Lord Shiva. It is also fabled that the mountain is the legendary mount Trikuta the capital of Ravana during the Ramayana times from where he ruled Lanka.

Hollywood has no idea about Indian mythology, they can't make it. BTW I have seen folks from South Europe complaining that movies made on Greeco-Roman mythology features North European actors and such actors of North European origin who don't look like Greeks or Romans.

I have only watched BR Chopra's Mahabharat numerous times, never tried to read it.

almost 3 decades back, we read Mahabharata through Amar Chitra Katha series. It was published by Pai&Co back then.
