My dear Adwitiya,

I am getting set to open the bubbly, to celebrate one of the rare occasions when I was right about a plot prediction. Having downed the champagne, I shall then dance as lively a jig as I can manage given the state of my non-replaced knee!😆 Do join me in the celebrations!

Shyamala Aunty


I would let you down the entire champagne all by yourself, but would love to join you in the lively jig, not just at your guesswork hitting a boundary, but also because today I actually managed to watch the episode on Hotstar premium, ie, before 8:30 pm😆. That's precisely why I lauded your tongue in cheek conjecture! 😉

Meri pyaari Shailaja,

Baap re baap! Kitne sawaal poochti ho, aur kitne anumaan lagati ho!

As things turned out tonight, while I got my main prediction right, and am jubilant at this rare success, most of yours seem to have been nixed, though one does not yet know how Chandra is going to get out of the palace lugging Nandini along.

Nor could I understand the Tarzan stunts in the precap. Oh well, we will find out all about that soon enough. For now, my comments are in blue.

Meanwhile, do join me as I practise possessing my soul in patience.

Aunty, I really have nothing much to add. I have exhausted all that I wanted to say in my previous posts in your previous thread. I think the only possible reason is because CVs want Chandra and Nandini to be in the same frame again.

Now, for some reason, I am getting my second and third thoughts about the order of Pathnis. Is Nandini going to be the second wife followed by Durdhara as the last? My CV vibes are giving me this feeling! I may be wrong anyhow! There is no mention anywhere of Durdhara. I don't think they have more than two weeks to waste over getting Chandra married to their lucky number of 3 wives. So, supposing the entire war was done in a week and Chandra got married to Nandini and then the Durdhara drama begins, and that marriage too is concluded in a week.

Who cares, my dear. Not I! Once Nandini is on board, and the catfights between her and Helena begin, the TRPs will soar, and that is all I am interested in right now!

Aunty did anyone here praise Nandini except Bharat Mata of course? Whatever or whoever Helena is, narcissistic or not, she is much better at the present moment than Nandini. As a matter of fact, she is very likable and relatable. She looks just like any other human being I might have met. I just tolerate Nandini waiting for her to grow up and redeem herself. I find her totally unbelievable in some respects.

No, no one else that I know of except that old lady, who seems to have lost her marbles.😉 I agree with you re:Helena, and I have made that amply clear thru this post, beginning with the title! Nandini has not had a single good line or a single tough scene as yet, When the latter comes, we shall see how she copes with them.

As regards, Chandra's disguise, how would one similar to the old school crony of Chanakya suit him? Padmanand, Rakshas, or Nandini, or all three put together will not discover him in such a disguise. I hope something solid comes out of this spying mission:

Like Gollum?? Good Lord! Run away and hide quickly, kid, for Anjali and the rest of the Rajatphiles will be after you with a hatchet for making such a ghastly suggestion!😆 But there was a solid gain from this mission, which did not go off as badly as I expected.

If the heroine of Rab ne bana di jodi could not recognise SRK 1, her husband, in the only slightly jazzed up version of SRK 2, then here at least Chandra has a moustache and a beard!

1) Meeting Moora and Vaishali and finding his truthful lineage and about Nand's atrocities to his family.

Yes, but sans Vaishali for now.

2)Sneaking in a few of his men inside and opening the fort doors for a surprise night attack.

Don't know. Seems to be more a case of sneaking the Nandputri out than anyone in!

3) Winning over Malayketu by clever persuasive skills and switch sides at the very last moment to the Chanakyan side because he sees more benefit in remaining with his former guru than with Nand and his Putri Nandini.

No, dear, I doubt very much if this would work with this Malayketu, though I understand that historically, Malayaketu was an ally of Chanakya and Chandragupta for the assault on Magadha, and that later, Chanakya eliminated him smoothly thru a vishkanya with whom the stupid chap was conveniently besotted.

PS:1) Malayaketu landed fortunately the first time at Magadh for the engagement. The second time, he was already present at Magadh to help them in the second battle. But I feel what is actually helping Nand and Co by having Malayketu on their side is the fact that he was also a very old student of Chanakya just like Chandra. So he seems to be able to put himself in Chanakya's shoes and anticipate perfectly what kind of schemes or war strategies he was coming up with. This makes it easier for the Magadhan side to be fully prepared in war. And I did not get another thing while watching. Was the spy who was caught working for Nand and Rakshas or for Malayketu?

The first point is clever and plausible,but I do not think that the CVs are up to handling such complications. This is not the 1990 production!

The last point was not clear, though Chanakya referred to his spying for Magadha, not for Malayaketu,

2) Is Chandra going to steal Rakshas's royal mudrika and are Chanakya and Chandra going to use it to weaken the Nandas as was shown in the classic ancient Indian play

Now this would be something! Maybe, like the hot roti sequence, they might use this one too!

3) According to history, Chanakya used dancers and courtesans as spies in his spy network along with male spies. Will that happen on the show?

I would want that only if they can produce a slinky, gorgeous temptress for the role. Not an overweight female shaking her limbs arhythmically!😆

Chandra-Helena are obviously my point of interest in the show..true to say, till Helena's entry only Rajat's performance caught my eyes. Other's were not bad... But i can't say enough impressing when it goes to the point of characterization...
I truly feel that when comes to Chandra-Nandini... the makers are trying to express that as the battle of mind and heart which has turned out too old fashioned and dramatic for current day.. I truly feel that mind and heart are not different... they are just different perspective of human thoughts..
Coming to Chandra-Helena... they came up as something very different and unique... and true to say stronger than the so called amar prem bounds... they somehow knew each other's strong point and weak points really well and know how to make out the best of each other.. and the cherry on the top that these traits come naturally, not with some over emphasizing romantic angle... thats why it looks more realistic and they got a proper build up... I would really like to see Helena as one of the Chief adviser of Chandra along with chanakua after he gets the kingship... i really wish EK makes good use of helena's character and Chandra-Helena partnership... cause by far these two are my most favorite characters of CN nd just for these two I am watching the serial ignoring the weak points...

(Can EK maa listen to my prayers and change the serial name into Chandra-Helena...😆😆)

Chandra-Nandini on the other hand still didn't have any proper build up... They are just like the bickering school going child to me who gets annoyed and angry on each other for silly ego clashes... I do hope that once their story starts, it comes with proper build up... RT and Shweta both are good performers to me... they just need a proper build up that's all... and mostly Nandini's characterization should be improved...

Aunty
Your guess was perfect. This visit was purely with the purpose of past revelations. 👏👏👏

But it was funny that the infrared eyes that could scan Chandra's face from such a distance in gloomy light amidst the dust of war, could noy scan through a beard and mole at such a close distance!

The height, general build, voice, nothing gave anyone a clue!😲 If the makeover was something like Chanakya's at Parvatak Rajya, it would'vebeen believable.

And the way the soldiers swooned as Chandra passed through them with the fainting smoke!😆 Couldn't the soldiers see/ hear the other soldiers fall!

And what was Chanakya's purpose this time? To learn what was precious to Nand/ what his weakness was. Didn't he know it was Nandini from his previous encounters at Magadh and Parvatak Rajya?

Shatru ka sach jaanne aaya tha! What sach????🤔

And didn't RajPurohits have companion Purohits or helper Purohits to conduct an important function as this! Did Chanakya substitute the whole lot of them??? Wouldn't it have been sensible to send Chandra as an unobtrusive soldier/ worker like Dushyant? The whole purpose of Purohit swapping seems to be to make the water over Nandini's hands fall on Chandra's.

Aunty my side splitting script for the great grand revelation of Chandra's identity came about in a similar way to what I actually predicted. Now it means I still have my hope for the Chandra Durdhara marriage option scripts.

I could also do a jig and party like you Aunty because my prediction on Nand kidnapping Chandra's foster parents and keeping them in the prison along with Moora came true. My side splitting script for this came true! There is hope for my Durdhara Dreams now! Similarly all my open air Udhyanvan Snankaksh dreams and my bees and wasps ideas are still open.

Why Aunty? My Gollum disguise was perfect as a disguise. It was not like I was going to condemn Rajat to this get up forever. I just wanted him not to be discovered like the previous spying fiasco. Nobody would discover him with a disguise like that even if they have met him 100 times before. Looks like Sir Galahad Gupt has learnt his lessons and quit his chivalry and is trying something devious! Good going!

Thank you, my dear, and if you do not mind, what is your name?

Yes, at this point of time, it is Helena who looks like the female lead. Let us see how long it lasts!

OK, OK, I give up! I shall keep my fingers crossed for all your predictions to come true, right down to the bees and wasps. Just make sure they do not sting you!😆

I was not particularly taken with Durdhara tonight, and I would not mind if she came in as Wife No.3, and in any case, it has to be because of some social compulsion, as in Ashoka the film.

Gollum looks too awful, kid, and Rajat's fans would not tolerate his being made to look so horrible even for a short spell. As things are, they are now busy swooning over the Tarzan shots of Rajat in the precap! 😉

I don't suppose anyone is going to unmask him now either, and I expect he will get clean away with that wildcat of a Nandini trussed up on his saddle (don't ask where the horse came from!)
