I am finally caught up with episodes 23 onwards though having watched them at warp speed have in all probability missed all nuances. And my comments might be all in a disarray.

The Pita-putri prem gets on my nerves. The brothers all seem spineless. One wonders if it is because of their dad's low birth. I seem to believe in 'Paravarish' counts a lot. But as you mentioned in one of your analysis the Barber does not know the ways/training of Royalty. Nandini stays true to that and needs a Rex Harrison(Chandra) to expand her horizons. Don't they have anything else to talk about. Yuddha niti, tax collection, music Adhyayan (Abhyas or studies) as she referred to in one of the episodes. Or maybe they do not show us that part. 😳 I am a little lost with the influence that Sunanda his first wife holds in the palace.

The sets of the palace seemed to me at most times badly animated. Not real or 3D. I take time to like a character hence I am not yet completely sold on the wisdom exhibited by Chanakya. And you can fault me bcoz I was am impressed with the character form the incomplete Chandragupta Maurya. Takshashila seemed more real to me in that serial. I had never thought that TS was in Gandhar nagari or current day Afghanistan. How much have i forgotten from school days or its a twisted fact. ??)

But looking forward to the Chanakya neeti wisdom that is applicable in today's glocalization too. Wonder how they treat it.

Chandra Helena - I agree with you that it has more substance than CN might ever have if Nandini is limited to talking in shrill voice and emoting with raised eyebrows.

Durdhara gives a different Chandra to us..loved the interaction. I cannot fault their acting but Durdhara looks a little more mature for her displayed innocence, but unlike Nandini both Helena and Durdhara can modulate their voices. I am terribly disappointed with Nandini's linear expressions no matter what. Even the dialogues are delivered with such haste.🤢 I think she needs an acting coach if she has to try and match Chandra's passion and single-mindedness

And to out favorite topic ..Chandra.I am amazed at the range of emotions he can exhibit and ur writeup does it apt justice and forces a cynic like me to watch the episodes for him. I am not yet sold hook line and sinker but after reading ur posts I get curious to see what brings forth the jabs you make.👏

I have still failed to understand how a powerful Magadh empire could not defend itself ...and needed Malaiketu at the first war cry.

Talking about this is so much better then analyzing how the liberals lost and worry as to what will happen in the next 4 years.

Shyamala,

I am always reminded of the poem "The Brook" by Lord Tennyson , particularly the lines "Men may come and men may go, But I go on for ever..", when I watch you doing the write ups with so much of zeal and perseverance ..

I have copied below the original and my remix in RED

Affectionately yours,

Akka.

The Poem.

"I come from haunts of coot and hern,

I make a sudden sally
And sparkle out among the fern,
To bicker down a valley.

You come from the hosts of writers in the forum

And create a style that is very unique

Sparkling out and with so much decorum

With your writings that are critiques

By thirty hills I hurry down,
Or slip between the ridges,
By twenty thorpes, a little town,
And half a hundred bridges.

Hundreds of posts you answer

To all the comments that you receive

Without making any delay whatsoever

But firm in your stand in which you are convinced!

Till last by Philip's farm I flow
To join the brimming river,
For men may come and men may go,
But I go on for ever.

Starting with the last famous historical show

You have done your untiring analysis

For readers may come and readers may go

But you will go on with your wonderful diagnosis!

I chatter over stony ways,
In little sharps and trebles,
I bubble into eddying bays,
I babble on the pebbles.

You show your talent in many ways

In your humour, advice and strictures

You do not cross your limits any day

Authentic in the way you plan your structure

With many a curve my banks I fret
By many a field and fallow,
And many a fairy foreland set

With willow-weed and mallow.

The anger and frustration you get

Sometimes upon seeing the readers' poor response

You brush aside like a dirt and do not fret

As seen from your next post you take up at once!

I chatter, chatter, as I flow
To join the brimming river,
For men may come and men may go,
But I go on for ever.

You continue with your task you have chosen to do

Like a Sthitha Prajnan does practise in many ways;

For readers may come and readers may go

But you will do you write ups as always

I wind about, and in and out,
With here a blossom sailing,
And here and there a lusty trout,
And here and there a grayling,

You enjoy even the smallest tribute

That the readers bestow upon you so often

Like the gift to a child that is so cute.

You've also given us a venue to contribute

And here and there a foamy flake

Upon me, as I travel
With many a silvery water break
Above the golden gravel,

And here and there you make references

That show your vast knowledge in every sphere

You certainly are firm in your preferences

Never deviate from them for any fear

And draw them all along, and flow

To join the brimming river
For men may come and men may go,
But I go on for ever.

You are as popular as the show on the screen

Which is a rare phenomenon whatsoever

For shows may come and shows may go off soon

But your writings will continue in top gear!

And out again I curve and flow

To join the brimming river,

For men may come and men may go,

But I go on for ever.

And we , your admirers, request as we do always

Since we want not to miss your ever,

For readers may come and readers may go any day,

But we wish you go on writing for ever...

Thank you, my dear Ankit.

There was no VFX at all in the first battle, Ankit, and only that one flying shot in this one. I would not hold that too much against the director.

Shyamala Aunty

Leave VFX but today they started showing that anything in Chandra life is coz of Nandini no matter it's due to love or hate
Today they showed that he consummate coz of Nandini harsh words especially
The war scenes are good and especially the way they showed 'viyuh rachna' was great
Malayektu is really a creap and coward man who only can defeat Chandra by stabbing on his back but no matter coz "jaisa sasur waisa jamai"

Well, my dearest Akka, was it not the norm in the 1960s and 1970s films for the unmarried hero and heroine to indulge in a bout of stolen passion, usually when they get wet in the rain and end up in some godforsaken shack😆, and for the heroine to turn up some weeks later, with a weepy face, saying Main tumhare bachche ki maa bannewalo hoon?

We have all been raised in this great cinematic tradition of one night stand babies. So why are you so puzzled now?😆

You are beginning to exaggerate, Ankit, and to generalise. Both traits are not good for analysis. You are simply repeating what everyone here is saying, which is taking the easy way out.

How is it that it did not strike you that Rajat's performance during the whole sequence, from the time he approaches Durdhara to the morning after, was quite simply outstanding? It was a very difficult set of scenes to tackle: the awkwardness, the reluctance amounting to distaste for having any such intimacy with his best friend - whether he is right or wrong here is not the point, the point is that he does so feel - the thinking back to Nandini's mad, hateful tirade, the shamefaced reaction the next morning. Every single bit of it was near perfect. I cannot think of many actors, even those in films,who could have pulled that off.

If you are going to be an analyst, you have to look at everything objectively, and you have to take a pran never to follow the crowd. You will then find your own pleasures and your own irritations, but they will be your own.
