My dear Pakhi,
Thank you so much for such warm praise of my posts. It is only readers like you, when they write in and say that my analyses offer them a new perspective on what happens onscreen, who keep me going now, when I have bad problems with my rheumatic fingers.
I loved your story about the mother, the kid, the rice plate and Chandra. I had not heard it before. Yes, I am sure the marriage with Durdhara, who made her entry tonight and was very perky and bright, will come first, and then, I think, with Helena. Nandini should be No.3, the lucky one to capture his heart, exactly like the other No.3, Jodha!
My next post is up, so do take a look at it.

Dear aunt,
First of all a standing ovation for all the brilliant analyses for the show. I watch the show after reading your post. And I'm writing just to show the admiration.
Loved the chanakya chandra interaction.
The whole set up of the show at present highlights the fact that the guru and shishya are in a deep karmic connection with each other.
The shishya is busy doing bondgiri in Greek camp while chanakya is busy collecting troops for him. I was too happy not to see that Rahu ketu in the scenes. I wonder what mahapadmanand sees in that guy to handover nandini to him?
What I admired totally was the integrity of selucus character.
He behaved a sample true general to the core.
He said he can't wage a war for a personal reason and snubbed Helena for lack of this thought.
He again was giving a great advice to his master.
Yes the boy is in that state of mind where it is impossible to Harbour any feeling for Anybody.
He held Helena with deep regards but despite admiration he has also noted down the point that for herself she betrayed her people.
Chandra regards everything how ever precious it may be is inferior to motherland and her people.
Yes now I feel chandra will be in a avatar of warrior Prince and I remember reading a story when I was a kid..
A mom scolding her child who was eating rice and chandra was hiding in her house as he was in disguise. The boy happened to burn his hand as he tried to eat directly from the middle of the plate. Mom scolded him that don't try to be a chandra who is directly and unsuccessfully attacking magadh instead of Conquering and capturing the surrounding states.
Try eating from corners as it is cold there and you can easily eat,otherwise you will never be successful.
This changed the tactics of Chandra and by the time he captured magadh he already had some border states in control.
So perhaps me guessing as promos indicate probably chanakya already has fixed matrimonial alliances with some other states and chandra has subdued some and magadh the last to fall and nandini last entrant to the trio we are supposed to get along with minor queens.
Waiting for your next post..
Pakhi.
