Chandra Nandini 16-17: Plot on a trot! - Page 9

Patti means grandmother. And it was you, Adwitiya, who were complaining that you were having to call ladies of your grandmother's age Aunty.

Not I. My honorary nieces span a wide spectrum as far as their ages go. I like it that way, and so do they.

Well Aunty, I am only nineteen... as old as HBAS😆

And it's Patti from now on... and not Shyamala Patti... I am liking the sound of this word! 😊

What does Patti mean, btw?

No, Ria, you have got it the wrong way about. It was not for them to call me kanna, which would be ridiculous, but for me to call them so!😆

well aunty I dont know about other ones but it will be so odd for me to call you Kanna😆😆 cause you are few years elder than my mother. So for me. only aunty!!!😛

Well, my Lashykanna, it is still only for you, right? So run get some Fewkwik for that cardiac apparatus of yours, not that I think it really needs that, you little fraud!😉

Of course Periyamma - would never think otherwise!

that confusion was clarified, only so Adwi doesn't get second thoughts and starts calling me aunty 😆

P.S. I thought Kanna was specially reserved for me

X - Ray of my heart ---> 🥺

Khushi... Kanna is dear... which an older one says to a younger one... (not other way around..) Chellam is dear too.

Periyamma is like Badi Ammi (rather, Mom's older sister)

Now this is what I call a sustained comedy track, my dear Shailaja! After reading it, I am duly thankful that the CVs would not have thought of letting Mura's undoubtedly besure vocal chords loose on us!😆

In the end, what I can see is that poor Chandra's goose is cooked good and proper with all these loony, mostly female folk hanging around his neck, and not even his Acharya for moral support!

Incidentally, what is his mission - decapitating Nand? I doubt if he managed it neatly, seeing how he failed to decapitate or otherwise kill (a) the Magadha senapati, (b) Vakranaas, and finally (c) Dhananand. I felt like clobbering him.😡

PS: I have not seen Yaadon ki baaraat, but the title song is very appealing.

This is again a LOL post. Nothing serious. All the previous episodes have been consistently good as have been the performances. This is surely not meant to criticize anyone.

Moora Mata is languishing in her Ashok Van of a prison and Vaishali, her daughter is sewing in gay abandon some chunnaries humming a song beneath her breath there in Vaishali Nagar, while Chanakya and Chandra are outside the prison with the intention of doing one last round of inspection of Magadh before their final attack. Santaram Vidya of course came in very handy.

Trijatha comes with dinner for Moora.

M: Trijatha you told me you did a lot of penance and can see whatever you want to see with your third eye of Divya Dristi. Can you see where and how my son is and tell me what he is doing?
T: Yay! Of course! Tri...tri...Trijatha...the third eye...tan tana that that that than!

Trijatha closes her eyes and is in deep meditation.
T: I see him! Yay! I see him! There...here...
M: Yes! You can do it! Come on! Come on!

Trijatha opens her eyes in exasperation and tells;
T: What come on, come on? I am seeing only his back! My power from penance is also exhausted in this stupid errand. Now I have to upgrade my third sight by doing penance for one more year. I will not get any leave from Nand for that!
M: What?(In utter disbelief before she remembers something and starts wailing in a loud voice)
T: Why are you crying now?
M: No, I am singing my family song to reunite my lost family. It is our code if we get separated because of enemies. (Starts singing again)

Yaadon ki baaraat nikli hai aaj
A procession of memories has come out today

Dil ke dwaare, dil ke dwaare
To my heart's door, my heart's door

Sapnon ki shehnaai beete dinon ko pukaare
A shehnaai (woodwind instrument) of dreams calls out to the days of past

Vaishali gets up excitedly at Vaishali Nagar and tells her Mama that Ma is singing their code song and that she can feel its vibrations and starts walking towards Patliputra while she continues singing.

Dil ke dwaare
At my heart's door

O, chhedo taraane milan ke
Pyaare pyaare sang hamaare

Oh, sing the lovely lovely songs of meeting with me
Yaadon ki baaraat nikli hai aaj

One soldier to other soldiers and Dwar Palaks in Magadh palace.
Soldier1: Stuff this cotton wool in your ears! We are already running short of it!
Soldier2: Is pagal ko ab kya Bukaar chad Gaya?


A procession of memories has come out today
Dil ke dwaare, dil ke dwaare

To my heart's door, my heart's door

Badle na apna yeh aalam kabhi
This world of ours will never change

Moora continues her song interspersing it with rhythmic beats followed by the word "Maharaj Sakuni" at regular intervals.

T(perplexed to the core): Why did Maharaj Sakuni come here?
M: Maharaj Sakuni is our code word for meeting.

At the other end, Vaishali and Vallabh start chanting the word "Maharaj Sakuni" three times before they continue singing while walking towards Patliputra.


Jeevan mein bichhdenge na hum kabhi
In life, we will never separate

O, badle na apna yeh aalam kabhi
This world of ours will never change

Jeevan mein bichhdenge na hum kabhi
In life, we will never separate

Yun bhi jaaoge aakhir kahan hoke hamaare, haan
Ultimately, where will you go, being mine, yes

Chandra and Chanakya walking outside the prison.
C: What exactly was that wailing, Acharya?
C: With my Khoot Nithi Gyan I presume somebody is sending a coded message. Let's go in and see!

Yaadon ki baaraat nikli hai aaj

Nand wakes up in his palace and asks for some cotton to stuff in his ears.
Soldier1: We ran out of cotton Maharaj!
N: Then what is it in your ears. All of you hand over the cotton in your ears and take the night off!
Nand stuffs all this cotton and gives some to Avantika and Priya Putri Nandini before going to sleep shaking his head.
N: Moora! Tum bhi na...


Aage bhi hoga jo uska karam
Whatever happens from now, it is a blessing

Yeh din to manaayenge har saal hum
I will see these days as every year

O, aage bhi hoga jo uska karam
Whatever happens from now, it is a blessing

Yeh din to manaayenge har saal hum
I will see these days as every year

M: Maharaj Sakuni...Maharaj Sakuni
Mera Chandra Aayega Mera Chandra Aayega
Nand ka vinash Karega...

Vaishali is a bit confused.
V: Maa is singing using the wrong lines.
Val: Your mother was always a bit loony. She must have added a few lines for effect. Keep on walking.

Apne aangan naache gaayenge chanda sitaare, haan
Upon our frontyard the moon and stars will sing and dance, yes

Chandra comes with Chanakya into the prison. Moora sees him and the pendant and tells him about their family history and Vaishali comes with Mama and a family reunion happens. Chanakya contemplates running away to Taxilla leaving these loony people to their own devices but decides to stay behind for his Pratigya.

Trijatha barges in telling to Chandra.
T: I saw your back...I saw your back with my third eye..
C(perfectly clueless): You saw my what with your what?

Yaadon ki baaraat nikli hai aaj
A procession of memories has come out today

To my heart's door, my heart's door

Sapnon ki shehnaai beete dinon ko pukaare

Dil ke dwaare

Chanakya reminds Chandra of his mission.
C: There are no soldiers around. Attack Nand now and complete my Pratigya!
Chandra takes Chanakya's ashirwaad and leaves.

O, chhedo taraane milan ke
Pyaare pyaare sang hamaare

Oh, sing the lovely lovely songs of meeting with me
Yaadon ki baaraat nikli hai aaj

A procession of memories has come out today
Dil ke dwaare, dil ke dwaare

To my heart's door, my heart's door

Chandra finishes his mission and comes back. Chanakya ties up his Shikha and leaves as all the others continue singing in chorus.

--CHORUS--
(Yaadon ki baaraat nikli hai aaj
A procession of memories has come out today

Dil ke dwaare, dil ke dwaare) - 2
To my heart's door, my heart's door

There ends this story. I hope all of you liked this family reunion.

There ends this story. I hope all of you liked this family reunion.

According to this post he actually manages to decapitate Nand and Sons because they are sleeping with their ears stuffed with cotton wool to escape the besure singing. Everything was over even before they knew it like the Greek Agamemnon who was murdered in his sleep. In the show, Nand and Sons are still alive. I knew despite all this build up and rousing speeches both by Chanakya and Chandra in different places, it was going to ultimately fail though they succeed in causing heavy losses to the Magadhan army.

One, their army has to be better organized and trained to face the mighty military machine of Magadh. Theirs is a ramshackle, rag tailed army at its very best. A big empire like that does not fall apart in a single day or with a single battle. I was very certain that Chandra and Chanakya were not going to manage to win the first time itself. According to history also Chandra is routed the first time when he directly attacks Magadh.

Then Chanakya has his Eureka moment seeing a mother scolding a child for attempting to eat a piping hot roti from the centre. She advises him to eat from the edges. That is when Chanakya advises Chandra to weaken the borders of Magadh by eating away it edges before launching an attack on the centre, ie. Patliputra.

I am glad that this war saga is going to continue for some time at least without being a one day wonder just like my one post victory of Chandra here. Glad that Ekta is showing at least this much of history. I never actually expected her to. And coming to the Great War scene of CN, it was infinitely better than the four strong armies of CAS which looked like a concert with just the performer and mike set man to keep him audience and an empty auditorium. I will have only good words for the action scenes in CN after my CAS war scene disasters.

Yay, sure Sandhya! You know I always have my strictures and commandments ready at hand if only somebody is going to take them. But I hardly think the CVs need much of them at present. They are making a decent job of the story and characters. They are actually overflowing with ideas at present that they are running at Usain Bolt speed. It is when their ideas are over and their story gets saturated and they have a paucity of ideas to churn out episodes without any of the two, then we can surely expect to see the real loony side in them. We still have time to get there.
