Of course a tattoo will increase in size as the person grows up, my dear Mitali. The skin expands.

And it is not on his hand, it is on his left arm.

Random musings... because they are just that...

Caught up with 10 episodes - yes, I did bear in mind that this is Ekta's serial... I've read all the pluses and the minuses over the past 2 weeks... know many scenes are a poor lift-off from BB... and have no expectations of history from it (never did)...

With that, and an open mind, I binge-watched all 10 episodes last night! And these are what I felt as I sat through the marathon...

Lashy!

They have lifted the scenes not only from Bahubali, they have stealthily copied the story line from your HBAS also!😉 The childhood of Chandra is miserable just like your AMK. Akbar was taken care of by his chachajaan, and likewise Chandra is rescued by Chanakya from the clutches of his foster father..The Shezaadi gives him full protection and casts him as a man of steel . Akbar grows up not giving place to weakness for anything- wine or women- in his mind and with the sole aim of service to his Emperor. Similarly, Chanakya infuses in the mind of Chandra, the only aim of "saving Bharat from the hands of the tyrant Padmanand" and shapes him as an unconquerable warrior with an iron will.Like Shyamala Aunty says, he is Chanakya's Brahmastram whose control is in the hands of the Guru.

What do you say?

Periyamma.

Hello Author dearest!

Now that was quite some musing, random errotic or whatever, be it from the point of observations or the sense of humour, that's so typical of you, it was as can be put with a Shymalian flair - sans pareil!! I know you know, but still - you are a ⭐️

My comments -

Awww thank you... 😛

(Btw sweetheart, you mean erratic... haven't yet stepped into the erotic 😆)

3) Nasty Naapit

The barber... oh Lord... when he fell off, while acting like a peeping Tom, I feared he was going to do a Saawariya's Ranbir on us...the state of his hand-towel, at most times, as precarious as the condition of Bharatmata's safety!

You were concerned about that only?! Why I was very much in the mood for searching the state of art gymnasium, that the Magadha empire provided to all inclusive of barbers 😉

Yes, I'd read your concerns... 😆

5) Stumped subjects

With the dialogue delivery of both kings sub-par, I could see why the subjects seemed quite clueless as they were subjected to endless lectures of unity by the two kings! Strangely enough, they had mostly the same expressions when they learnt of their king's demise😆... I'm certain that is because they feared the imminent arrival of another lecture... and lo and behold, that's exactly what happened when Padmanand prakat hua!

Actually, the director did not waste time assembling the prajas again and again... he must have shot their faces only once! Hence the same expression 😉

That is so true 😆

6) Tyranny triumphs

The scene where Suryagupt watches the amorous lovers, and everything after that, has to be the most ill-conceived scene in a historical - the disappearing/appearing guards, the peacock delivery ward... nope... if I go on, I'd run out of laptop ink! (Of course, my worries for the Naapit's handtowel were still on, and with even greater depths during the fight sequences!)

So thoughtful of you! 😆😆

Of course.. koi shak? 😉

7) Hurrah! Handtowel grew in Height (and width)!

😆😆😆

And I like his tri-striped semi-bleached beard too... stylish villain😉. (He looks better than Chetan Hansraj! I just realised we have three giants in this show... This dude, Chetan and the oldest Nand son...😲)

A fact... I realised this after reading your point - the villains or giants, as you say, make RT appear shorter than he actually is. Whereas the heroine makes him appear taller than he is 😉

Yes I realised that one too! 😛

I particularly like one thing he does (his habit) keeping count of any ill-treatment meted out to him, all sprouting from his father's cruelties. I definitely admired him for taking his father head-on.

👏👏agree!

9) Amusing Amartya

Amartya Rakshas sporting a hairstyle like the famous comic-boxer T'? And oh my God... we have a Gollum too! Nevertheless Amartya's 'hatke' character is a welcome relief. But, if Amartya Rakshas has a significant role, I must say he's not a good choice - there is hardly ever any expression on his face and most times I know he's saying his lines is because his lips seem to be moving.🤓

True... but I think Shymala Aunty's Star Trekkie comparison is more suitable 😆

Yup! 😉

11) BGM - I Love the background score they're using for CGM... stolen from BB or not, I love it.❤️ It's royal and it reflects bravado. The westernised la la la' for Nandini doesn't suit the serial... it really takes away from the gravity of the scene. On one hand we have a lady being stoned, and then suddenly la la la... really?🤔

Another great observation... that and the unnecessary use of CGI, what takes them to understand that the combat scenes can come along well even without special effects 😕... Why are they so hell bent on disobeying Newton's discovery!

>>>

12) Chatur Chanakya

I am quite impressed by Chanakya - glad I didn't watch his earlier serial. Glad I haven't watched the other more 'impressive' Chanakyas. Hence, I have no complaints. He reminds me of the Amar Chitra Katha portrayals of the savant that I've grown up seeing. (Btw, I don't know if anyone noticed - one of Chanakya's disciples - he looks very very smart. Ahem... he should get a bigger role!😉)

He is good, and as he grows in to the character he'll be better I hope! 😳

Yup!

13) On to the infamous boar scene - The actual boar wasn't as bad as the dude jumping on the invisible trampoline and landing with his leg gently on top like the boar was Ahalya and he Lord Ram! Hey Ram!😳

Jai ShreeRam!!!!😉

😆 Hayooo
