Not to sound too much political but our 'secular' gov'ts in north n south are bent upon in proving that Ram and Ramayan are a pure fiction (the serial just goes to vent this feeling)the govt even produced false verses saying that Rama broke the Ramsetu before returning to ayodhya with Sita n others . which is not at all true, infact our (ancient) Purans always mention as Ram-setu as sacred and appeals to all citizens that it should be a protected site .
On the lighter note: 'All popular folk tales does mean :
arabian nights, Vikram -betal , Vidhi ka vidhan et all
all these have been included much to our dismay and screwing up Ramayan
