Haan, beta, aur aap aayeen bahaar aaye ! Welcome to my threads once more, Gargi ! 🤗
I am glad you enjoyed this one.
I am of exactly the same mind as you about Chandragupta being royal by birth, and I had mentioned it in the post itself. The same with the dynasty not being named for his mother Mura. Anyhow, what can't be cured and all that jazz.
I too am waiting for Rajat, but that should take at least another 7-10 episodes. There are 18 years at least to be covered, even with the ubiquitous leap, Alexander's arrival and departure, and Chanakya to be trotted out. Then his falling out with Padmanand or his son Dhananand, the
Chanakyasabadam, the famous oath, and then the shift with the young Chandragupta to Takshashila, where Alexander's satraps would be struggling for a foothold with the help of the treacherous Raja Ambhi of Takshashila.
What I want to know is how Chandragupta learns who his parents are. Let us see. I am not doing anything for Episode 2, as there is nothing in it that needs comments or analysis, but I shall open a new thread for the next 2/3 episodes, depending on their content.
It will also be a break for me, Gargi, I have overdone things badly from last night and a lot today, and my fingers are stiff and painful. A day of complete rest will do them some good. Thank you, CVs, for this
chutti!😆
Take care, my dear, and see you again soon. I will PM you.

Though I must admit very much late. 😆
I read your post and very much loved it , as usual. I kinda like your laid back attitude this time. Really , why bother boiling our blood over historical inaccuracy when we can have so much fun with out ?? 😛 This is exactly my mind set because nowadays I'm in too much stress as it is , to worry and crib about historical facts . I'll leave that to better hands. 😉
But I really hated them making Chandra a royal born prince , which is not just far far away from truth , but it also takes away the connectivity factor that is in built within us for under dogs , for dark horses.
It also takes away from Chandra the glory of the founder of Mauriyan empire and royal clan which is the very basis of his story- the journey of a common man to one of the most remembered and revered emperor till date.
WAiting for RT's entry now. The 1st epi was lack luster without his presence. Hoping to see a kickass entry.
Hoping nothing from Shweta. I'm a worshipper of beauty and she has none. 😒
P.S- I read your post from my mobile as soon as it was posted. 😉
