My problem is not with Ashok himself, I understand that it takes transit time from a common boy to a prince n one can not leap through this change , his struggle, confusion, thousand questions n even rebel against royal ways of life and the way he was brought up n taught by his mother during 14 freaking years of his life - it's natural, n any thing natural is interesting to watch.
So what am I complaining about here ,exactly ??
I've trust issues with the CVs , if they take time to build up Ashoka's character keeping the innate goodness intact , yet slowly adding that dash of quintessential cunning , ruthlessness , I'm fine to wait it out , I'm fine with his journey to being a royal n slowly becoming a bit less innocent , more power hungry , but never loosing touch with the "mitti ki khusboo " , that down to earthness, which should n must take time n can't be achieved within 24 hours of revelation.
But are the script writers even planning to get there ? Will they ever show us Ashok being a ruthless larger than life soldier in the battle field , or not ?? Or will they keep him in his Ahimsa , daya , karuna, shanti ..etc. phase in every situation to every person status quo ?? 😕
If you get what I mean ! 😕 😆
