My dear Prem,

My hand is hurting a lot today, so I will be very brief. My comments are in blue.

Shyamala Aunty

Tour de force:

Aunty till now CGm was taking revege of chankyas aapman now suddenly he finds nand has done a bigger injustice to him and his family. So his goal is personal now and that is why he will put extra effort to kill nand and his family.

The rigorous work out in jungle he does not to get ready for war, he is already ready. He wanted to fell the pain of lashes on his mothers body hence he was pushing himself by doing gym in forest.

But this is exactly what I have said in my post, about his being driven by his guilt and his grief about his mother! I have not said that he was preparing for the war.

In the scene where mura speaks to his other mother, i liked both mothers love for chandra. Lucky chadra will have two moms spoiling him with their love and affection after a few more days.

I am now worried for vaishali and her uncle, aunty. What if nand uses vaishali as fodder in war?
You know a unmarried young sister is the most vulnerable link for chandra now. Nand will not dare touch mura and his parents or uncle aunty. But Vaishali yes, you can understand if he threatens to abuse her chandra will have to surrender(nand will not ask withdarwal this time its too risky) and you know nand is a womanizer so such threats are not my imagination it can turn reality.

Nand does not know who Vaishali is, so even if he had not been disposed of last night, he would not have been able to use her as a hostage. But I miss her!

No matter what people feel that helena is a ambitious and heartless woman who only thinks of revenge, she understands chandra very well. they both are like those twin souls who understand each other without saying and will do anything for each other, if that is not a soulmate what else is? If this is not love what is? Is love only speaking love ballets and roaming hand in hand and all the dreaming together? Is nhelena's love not love because she is a strong lady stronger than chandra sometimes?
Its like todays corporate woman who are considered non emotional or manly because they are ambitious and work twice more than the men - same taboo helena has. But she is an human too who understands pain and cares for her hubby.

I agree with you completely on this.

Chankyaa too for once understood gravity of situation and was not only a task master or guru.

The truth

Chandra was ready to go and spill beans to mura and his parents luckily mura said till he does not kill nand and family she will not see his face.

What i observed was mura was saying my son and his adopted mom also saying my son. In future tug of war will ensure may be eat mine first eat mine first 😆 lucky boy from an orphan to two mothers and fathers within few minutes

😆

I liked chandras reactions as he walked into palace first tears then a broad smile yes i know my wajood my identity and fianlly anger that leads him to nandini. I do not understand why he went to nandini he should have gone and warned nand or his wife na

See Sandhya's post on page 2, She has by by far the best explanation for why Chandra goes only to Nandini's room. OK, here it is!
-
Despite all Chandra's aloofness in the Gurukul and his being his teacher's pet, the 'Charvahe ka beta' taunts of Malayaketu must have pricked him. He might have chosen to ignore considering it to be his unfortunate truth that he can overcome with his abilities. But that he was none lesser than the oafketu or the RajNandini and that he had to be separated from his parents, live a fatherless life, abused by the man he thought was his father, with a mother who ought to have been a queen, chained for years waiting for his return and revenge, were all too many revelations and very strong ones too. What he suffered, how much he had missed in life. Hence his anger is multifold at Nand and more at his putri who enjoyed all the splendor and care at his expense. No wonder his first outburst of anger is against Nandini, whose birthday was celebrated with such grandeur, and coins were issued in whose name, who was pampered and cared for, while he, who was similar born suffered because of her father.

Anyways for his anger chandra treated nandni very well but she shows high immaturity

He is saying your dad killed my dad, your dad made my mom prisoner and abused her and whipped her now and then but nandini is like that casette that gets struck in one dialogue my dad my dad blah blah. This girl has no sympathy and empathy, she is more dangerous than any helena can be.

A person should know right from wrong after a certain age say 9 or 10 years this 18 year old cannot understand right from wrong why and how? all his thinks is her dad and her brothers. Instead she wants to kill chandra and runs after him with sword unbelievable 😲😡 she is pure evil lady.

She never says nand what chandra said but goes and abuses mura in prison. How will CVs redem this charcater tjhat chandra falls in love its impossible


Light relief: Durdhara-Chandra 1:

The promise that she gives never to demand any rights as a wife from him, and his own solemn warning to her Ab jo tune kaha, use jeevan bhar smaran rakhna! A finger wagging at her to emphasise this point, Aur mujhse bhi ek pati banne ki aastha mat rakhna! , come jointly under the category of "Famous last words"! 😆

Aunty atleast i expected CVs to keep chandra dhuradhara relation non transaction but no to show love with nandini all his other wives are majboori forc ed on him, this is truly bad

And the way chandra was warning her like a head maaster, he is taking piplivan prince role too serious now, requires one chaadi from nandinis dad or a command from chankya. Here honestly i hated chandra because dhuradhara is childhood friend, saved his life from greeks, given food etc yet he says do not expect anything from me your husband. What will she ask? moon or sun or diamond and gold, her dad has everything all you have to give her love and care and may be a child which every woman desires in life(mostly). Especially when husband is emperor and always at war atleast child will keep her occupied. If that is too much of a wife to ask than chandra truly is not fit to be a friend forget a husband. And of all of chandras wives dhuradhara will be least demanding, she is a gem of a person and very co operative a 1950s hindi heroine kind who only gives never demands or takes anything. Chandra m,ust do 100 janam punya to get her actually, he is getting without effort so the akhad

No, my dear, the point is that Chandra is like a bal brahmachari at this point of time, He distrusts the very idea of love and does not want emotional entanglements. It is a bargain between him and Durdhara as it was between him and Helena, and in a bargain, each party has the right to set out his/her conditions, But yes, Durdhara is delightfully childlike (NOT childissh)


I think dhuradhara dad has business links with that old man and can be beneficial to his business so marrying 20 year old daughter to 50 year old man but only child horrible. But i know of such cases where young damsels have married widowers divorcee with kids as their dads are business partners(or other benefits to both families) in 21st century not surprised that this can happen in 300 BC.

Well, Prem, in Love in the Afternoon, a 20 year old Audrey Hepburn fell in love with a 56 year old Gary Cooper, and in real life, an 18 year old Oona O'Neill married a 54 year old Charlie Chaplin and was blissfully happy with him. So it is not just a question of the age difference. It is that the chap is a wife beater. But yes, your advantage in business is a probable reason, the real truth being that Durdhara's father does not care for her at all.

My dear Mansi ( I hope I have got that right!),

Thank you!

As for what Helena says to Durdhara, she is like a lioness marking her territory and saying No trespassers!😆

Durdhara is a delight. I was interested to see that you agree with my theory about her. As for our main heroine, what one has to hope for now is that Nandini improves.

Hi Shyamala Aunty,
Lovely write up as usual 👏...enjoyed it thoroughly...👍🏼

..but frankly, with so much going on in our country, m really unable to focus on anything else except the news channels😆...trying to absorb as much as my "non-commerce" brain can absorb, esp coz I'm a science graduate 😃

Hence m watching CN in ff mode usually...n all I can notice is Rajat's brilliance...in fact, even Manoj was lacklustre in yesterday's epi, I thought...n Sweta is simply not performing!...at all!...

So, all in all, I'm enjoying CN because of RT & MDSA only...(MDSA - My Dearest Shyamala Aunty 😃)

Well, Mandy, I do hope you are able to join us in the fullest sense soon, as a regular viewer. I try my best, but no one can compensate for the absence of the visuals! So fingers crossed! And I am very glad you enjoyed what I have written so far.


Affectionately,

Shyamala

My dear Tejaswini,

My hand is hurting quite a bit today, so I will be as brief as I can. My comments are in blue.

Shyamala Aunty



Originally posted by: tejaswiniwenham

hi aunty! excellent post as usual! but coming to yesterday's episode, i have realized that I am going to miss helena-chanakya buddhi duets. it is bound to falter once he announces (as is legend) that a mixed child cannot be on the throne...which is understandably frustrating for her- who will be maharani (im gonna be hella pissed if that title doesnt go to her- the one whose contribution to this war as chandra's teacher, wife, confidante, guide, council and provider of his army, far surpasses the others and is equal to chandra's own effort at war) that her child will not succeed a throne she has fought the hardest for- but a part of me is wishing hope against hope that they dont have a fall out...may be even more so than chandra helena 😉 😆 a girl can dream right?

Well, my dear, they need not show it that way here, as they did in CAS, that Helena's son is deprived of his right to the throne for being partly a foreigner. Such historical data as has been unearthed about her, and whether she had any son at all, is indeterminate. But I too very much hope they do not have a falling out.

now coming to chandra durdhara and aunty, your suspicion- idk i feel like shes a goody two shoes but her less than warm response to helena and the shock at chandra's marriage makes me think you may not be off the mark. in that case, i may respect her a wee bit more. topi pehna diya apne bachpaan k dost ko. 😆 but i am curious to know why you felt that way. so far i have felt nothing for her other than- oh thats sweet. chandra has a friend...kind of in the same way i feel whenever i see my son with a new female friend. nothing more and nothing less. but one thing for sure, all these bharat mata ki putris seem to be completely underestimating their father's greed...😕 they live with them right? how the hell are you so oblivious. i get positive thinking about your parents but this is just silly.

I felt so because, as I wrote, I could not see any financial benefit for Durdhara's father in marrying her off to that nagarseth. She is very sweet and childlike (not childish), true. But that does not preclude her from having pulled off a non-harmful trick like the one I suspected. She rattles off her reason for marrying Chandra so fast on their wedding night that it sounds rehearsed, and I still feel the same. As I said, I would like her better if that was true, but it probably is not, alas!

now chandra...everytime he says i have no hriday, i feel like a needle piercing my brain and he says that a lot. cos its a reminder that although his titular counterpart in the show is an insufferable self-righteous shrew, somehow he will shown as wrong and she will bring back his hriday. 🤢 i wonder how chandra will use his hriday to win wars for akhand bharat nirman. maybe he will just set his third wife loose upon them to bhashan them to death.

🤣
and now the most discussed scene of the day yesterday- so i dont understand that scene, like AT ALL. i dont understand why it happened, why the cvs included it, what it was supposed to prove...i just dont get it. what purpose did going to tease mura serve? did she, who shall henceforth not be named in my posts as i fully plan to ignore her or just refer to her as the nadan or the shrew depending on absolute necessity and my mood, just do that out of pettiness? in which case 🤣 🤣 napid ki putri vapid. i really hope mura gets on team helena and keeps chandra's brain and the shrew under control. and if she EVER dares to lecture them on anything or if as per my prediction durdhara gives her saath, they should lock them both in a tower in the middle of the indian ocean. just saying. but if there is some other reason that she went to mura cos sometimes i tend to tune out, please do enlighten.

I can think of none, and my post makes it amply clear what I now think of her!

Sandhya,

Two points here.

One. My objection was not about HOW their lack of funds came out. That is perfectly clear. It was about why Chanakya raised this objection only now and not earlier, before he sent Chandra to Pataliputra on a wild goose chase. At that time, he was behaving as though once they had identified Nand's greatest weakness, they would have the thing in a bag!

In fact it looked exactly as I said, as if he was now digging out one problem after the other all of a sudden. Like the lack of soldiers, which too must have been evident after the second battle.

Two. That mayurpankh design is NOT drawn on the baby's arm. It is etched, by cutting into the tender skin with the sharp edge of an ornament that Mura uses. That is why it stays and expands as Chandra grows up. What is the difference between a symbol like this one and a seal or lettering anyway? Those too could have been copied. As could the rajamudrikas routinely used in historical narratives to identify a trusted messenger.

The question is: WHY should it have been copied and engraved on this kid's arm at all?

You have missed Chanakya's main reason for blaming himself now. The design is not some random one. It is clearly a specific one used by the Maurya royal family and he knows that. He now feels that he should have guessed then itself that the lad he adopted belonged to that family, and he should have probed the charwaha family about it.

Not that it would have made any practical difference, but it would have completely altered Chandra's self image and boosted his self-esteem, even if the truth had to kept hidden till the right time.

So, let us just acknowledge that old man Chanakya slipped up in these instances. He is only human, after all!

OK, this is it for now. I will come back once I feel a bit better.

Shyamala Aunty

As for Chanakya considering lack of wealth as a problem now, may be he did save money over the years for the big day by donations, bullying, etc that might have got exhausted during the 2 battles.


Also, the peacock feather symbol was just drawn on his hand ( God knows how it stayed on without being properly tattooed). Anyone could have done it or copied the symbol. It wasn't any seal or lettering or any specific traditional symbol or emblem. It might have meant something or nothing at all. There was no reason to have any suspicions on his parentage.

My darling pet,

🤗🤗🤗

One bit of advice. Stay off the news channels. The newspapers are better for solid info. As for the tax implications, I find TaxGuru useful. There was a bit today at

http://taxguru.in/rbi/6-major-benefit-demonetisation-do-not-see-media-coverage.html

which flags that key point I had made to you about the fake currency menace.

It will all settle down soon.

Shyamala Aunty

PS: I love your MDSA!

Hello Aunty🤗
I'm having a lot of trouble opening this site on my laptop 😭

the whole, splendid display of unbridled masculine oomph

^this whole scene made me laugh out loud😆 I was like what is he doing, show off. I know they put this scene for oohs and aahs from young girls. . And I really think they overdid it.

I have missed watching some parts in between but nandini Annoys me. She is one confused character on one hand she jumps in the well to save a goat on the other hand she is seen taunting Mura . I don't find her very consistent... She behave like she is one warrior princess but with malaiketu turns...she couldn't just stand up to injustice. . . Waise toh prem prem GA rahi thi. . Ab kya ho gaya. . And has she never noticed the way Nand treats Avandia?
