TFS such an interesting story :)

Dharma was the chief queen and still she is suffering so much. Ashoka is a prince and still he is suffering so much.

Initially when the show started, it was so full of action and the episodes used to be happening ones. But this Dharma death track is being dragged endlessly. 😕 Makers should realise that now viewers are getting irritated. Viewers know that it is Nirjara who died in Dharma's place. Then why maintain the so-called suspense for so many days? Why don't they now reveal that Dharma is alive and unite her with Bindusara and Ashoka?

Chanakya - supposed to be ruthless. But in this show, he is perhaps the most emotional character. He is always questioning himself, feeling guilty and repenting his actions. He is easily outwitted by Helena. And he is always shedding tears. True, his acting is very good. But if we compare him with the real CHanakya then there is a vast difference. 😲

Hopefully Dharma and Bindusara will get united soon and then we may see the story you shared coming true.

Just now saw this post , And i agree the show is OTT dramatised with the characters of dharma , bindusara , ashoka n chanakya 😕 ... I m still reeling from the shock of showing , a queen having illicit relationship with king's brother itself (??) and still it is unnoticed by everyone in the palace 🥱 May be that part is of Dramatisation , but i doubt that King B is not that much fool 😕 And with helena , i remember some known charcs of JA n JKR 😆 Who knows everything before in hand , while the leads will roam here n there for some clues 😆

And About REAL B , its really sad to know abt his likings for Ashoka ... Its really unfair to hate a person , just on the means of complexion

Hi friends, just figured out that Vaishaki is celebrated across the country, to be precise the country of Ashoka the great (given the geography it spans), in its own style. Unity in diversity indeed! it is this culture that binds us all together as a nation though so much variety.

So, let us celebrate the spirit of the nation along. here's wishing all, all of these:

Special wishes for a very happy

Vaishaki (Punjab)
Bikhu or Bikhauti (Kumaon region of Uttarakhand)
Tulu New Year
Rongali Bihu (Assam)
Edmyaar 1 (Bisu Changrandi) - Kodava New Year
Maha Vishuva Sankranti (Odisha)
JurShital (New Year) in Mithila (parts of Nepal and Bihar, India)
Nobo Varsho or Pohela Boishakh in Bengal and Tripura, Nepal and Bangladesh
Navreh in Kashmir
Official Nepalese New Year (Nepal)
Sinhalese New Year (Sri Lanka)
Songkran (Thailand)
Tamizh Puthandu (Tamil Nadu)
Vishu (Kerala)

Thank you Wiki!

All, Have a fantabulous year ahead!

I had completely stopped watching the show.

Just recently, while changing channels few days back came to know that, Chanakya has been missing ? What is the new twist ?

And i find it very absurd that, till now they have shown Bindusara unaware of Dharma.! This is height of drama.! The very foundation of this supposedly historical show is fiction.

Abhay, you started watching Ashoka?

Ahankara is teenaged daughter of King of Ujjaini - Rajajiraj.
The story of this track is - Rajajiraj's elder brother (who was king before) is killed in war by Bindusaar. He had daughter named Agnishikha. They vow revenge.

Helena plots with Rajajiraj & Selucus Niketar against Bindusaar. Marriage between Justin & Agnishikha is proposed to end this feud, by Helena. Rajajiraj requests Bindusaar to let him build a palace for Agnishikha as wedding gift in Ujjaini style. Under pretense of getting material they get & build palace of "lakh".

The plot is to get entire Maurya dynasty in new palace for wedding and after wedding burn the palace down, while Helena Justin Agnishikha etc. escape through hidden tunnel, so Justin can become king & Agnishikha the queen of Magadh.

Ahankara becomes friend of Sushim & they showed a budding romance. She is bratty arrogant & joins Sushim in insulting Ashoka.

Ahankara doesn't know of this plot, so when she overhears the plot after wedding, she refuses to leave & be part of this. She is concerned about Sushim's safety.
Agnishikha is killed & Rajajiraj escapes leaving Ahankara behind.

Sushim promptly dumps her & proposes to Bindusaar that announcement be made holding Ahankara responsible to be killed in 3 days unless Rajajiraj surrenders.

Ashoka believes in Ahankara's innocence. So is becoming friends with her, while she is in captivity.

Abhay, do you think Ahankara can be Asandhimitra? Was she from Ujjaini?

BTW when Rajajiraj is captured, he puts condition that Ahankara be freed & sent back before he names conspirators & he names Chanakya. Chanakya agrees plotting, throwing Helena Justin in confusion.

You only asked who Ahankara was and I ended up writing all this!

Maddy,

Yes, after reading your reply i do think that Ahankara / Ahamkara can be future Asandhimitra, but this is just a guess..

As far as historical inputs are concerned, i have not read any "historical" text which tells us about the place Asandhimitra belonged to.

I decided to make a new post about wives of Ashoka as a forum friend asked me long back. Have collected the inputs, just need to arrange them and make a post.

Seems you are enjoying the show, seeing the flawless desription you gave here.
Thanks a lot. :)

Hi abhay.. i jsut wnted to say ur blog of history is fab! thank u for takin ur time n writing it n giving us the right info. but about this Ahankara thing i wanted to ask u a ques... if u dont mind, the question is
Couldnt it be disrespecting to the history if they showed Ahan as Ashandi? Becos as far as we no NONE OF THE WIVES of ashok have every flirted with sushim or had relationship.. as ashok hated sushim so much. n if u havent seen in the show it showed tht ahan and sushim almost kissed. n the real ashandi could never do tht. if they had shown ahan as ashandi in the first place i think it could been better... bt wat do u think??
