I'll just add a few lines worth here... about the latest one???

Strangely... despite the negative reviews on the forum.. I liked it overall... 😲

What I didn't like

1) Helena and the constant focus on lips and eyes and skin pores that'd been poorly masked by layers of foundation... and again lips and eyes and skin... and lips and eyes Hey Bhagwaan! And she looks much older to RT too... almost like his aunt!

Lashy, I think the cameraman takes a fancy to show these parts in closeups, for all the characters. When Chanakya was first introduced, all his uneven bottom row teeth were exposed.. And so also with Nandini. In this latest, Porus ws also shown like that. It looks funny when his mush and beard move synchronisingly with his lips!😆😉

2) OMG Why was Alexander talking to Porus in English and to Selucus in Greek.. Alexander's Hindi is like those English actors from our British-Freedom-movement Bollywood movies... understandable!
But Selucus' attempts sound like he's sporadically reading and joining any syllable from any word together... incoherent babble! He must just speak in English.. I'm sure the non-English population would eventually deduce what he's on about!

3) Editing/Screenplay - Why are they running from one scene of Porus' 'Bharat Mata ki jai', to next scene battlefield, to next scene cliff top (I actually thought Alexander was going to push Porus down😆) and then, that wooden vantage point that looked like it'd come out of a set of Angry Birds!
The simple tent was much better... and all those scenes could've been carried out in just tents...


What I liked

1) I liked Chandra... the saucepan-skirt comedy (with the repeated focus on the twirling pleats of his skirt) was silly, but intentional/believable unlike the unintended comedy that the VFX is causing... if CGM ever had worn that Western attire, I can imagine him feeling a bit... (for lack of better word, as the Scots here call it) 'uncomfortably airy'

Now yes, him going 'Chandra this Chandra that' to Alexander is unnecessary... how sophisticated he would seem if just kept quiet and took it all in with a slight smirk!😉 But I guess that's where he differs from Chanakya... his need to advertise his bravado constantly... is innate pride... stems from his bloodline... makes for 'royal' material! He is a king's son after all!

I thought you would classify this under"What I Didn't like"

2) I actually liked SBP's sword fighting.. especially when compared to her first practise promo... she's been practising... that's for sure... (I just have to remind myself not to focus on the flab and the clothes😔)

3) I know the upcoming sequence at Parvatak is filmy.. but I think it'll make for an interesting meeting of all characters under one roof... and this time, with CGM as the soldier... let's see what all Tashans we get to view! (And sadly, with a generous amount of VFX helicopter stunts, trampoline jumps and animals that they surely intend to thump on us!)

😆😆

Not just aunty. Many here like dissection and analysis.

The definition of enjoyment varies from person to person.

Listening to music is one kind of enjoyment. But deriving their swaras analyzing the ragas and dissecting and discussing them is another kind of enjoyment. It depends on what your taste is.😊

Ankit,

If I were not feeling sorry for you, I would scold you for trying to type with part of your hand, or the whole, in plaster or bandaged. Rest it, my dear boy, or you will prolong the healing process. My posts and your comments can wait.

Take care and be good.

I am very glad that you enjoyed this post - which, as I had noted, was an afterthought - so much, my dear Manasi, that it helped you get over the after effects of the fever! I hope that you are still being careful to that there is no relapse.


>> yes yes...😃

Yes, my dear, I have to be careful and pace myself. If not, I shall be heading for a collapse, which I would not like at all, for I would miss all of you more than you would miss me!

>> 🤗

Affectionately,

Shyamala Aunty

What they needed was Lashy's nattuvakkilli, the giant and extremely venomous red scorpion. That would have explained why Chandragupta had to jerk the dupatta away, for he could not have knocked it off her shoulder without getting stung himself.

The VFX really does take away part of the magic in a scene

Dont mention the lizard...I am ashamed of the CVs for making that an excuse🤢

Yes 😆
Porus' Pink lips with lambi lambi mooch... like our yester years' heroes... how might we forget that

Now yes, him going 'Chandra this Chandra that' to Alexander is unnecessary... how sophisticated he would seem if just kept quiet and took it all in with a slight smirk!😉 But I guess that's where he differs from Chanakya... his need to advertise his bravado constantly... is innate pride... stems from his bloodline... makes for 'royal' material!

I meant it would have been better had he not opened his mouth...
but they're making CN like our action heroes... who cannot do without his punchlines... after all, CN is influenced from Action BlockBuster BaahuBali..so, the hero's dialogues are also like that...
Like Rajni doing 'Naan late aa vanthaalum latestaa varuven' to CN or Salman Bhai going 'Zindagi Mein 3 Cheez Kabhi Underestimate Nahi Karna, I, Me And Myself.'
