Do you see any mistakes here?

Hello!
Do you see any mistakes here?

In the Vedic epos Ramayana, it was the magical deer (demon Rama had turned himself into a deer) which caught the eye of Gita who wished to capture the creature and, therefore, to the satisfaction of Rama, he got to marry Gita.

Thank you a lot!

'Epic' is the normal term. Parenthetical comments, particularly when they do not intercalate with the matrix grammar, are generally unacceptable in formal writing. 'Gita' is a defining name, so the following clause should be non-restrictive.

  • There are too many commas in the latter part; it should be recast to minimize thern.
