Hi Shyamla,
Let me compliment u on your achievements,👏 I'm talking about the videos posted, I believe , on your birthday thread. And I confess, I will address u by your first name, rather than aunty. U r pretty hot stuff, 😉not the stereotypical aunty.😆
Coming to the the show CN, I 'm not religiously following it, kya hai ki hum abhi tak jodha ke atyachar se ubhre nahi hai.😕😡
History has been always fascinating for me. but not the absurd kind that comes out of Ekta's dimag.😡 But could not keep out, wanted to see how the two top guns of Indian history are portrayed. so I read few of your impeccable write ups, ⭐️and watched random glimpses of the show. Was I disappointed? definitely... yes. May be I like accuracy in historical fiction. And previous experience with makers was highly disappointing too.
The real chankya, a teacher, politician, true wizard. Was a man on mission. To keep the foreigners out of land of Bharat, and colossal dream of Akhand Bharat. Love him or hate him, can't deny that guy was Insanely Genius.⭐️ He might have done few dirty jobs to get there. But his vision should be cherished by every citizen of the country. He took Chandra under his wings, groomed him , to be the best of the kind. ⭐️
Chandra, the valiant, intelligent, humble ,young warrior. He was passionate about his matribhumi as his teacher. He had the spark to make mission accomplish. Taking on mighty Greeks and maghad was not a cake walk.
And that's how they should be reproduced on the screen.
I have seen few scenes, so my assessment could be wrong. Feel free to correct me.
Chankya comes across as a pimp rather than a politician,🤢 sleep with Dhrdhara, spend night with Nandini. And why r u falling for nandini ( something like that). When he was flogging Chandra. Seems like he is obsessed with his Kesh, for real chankya it was never about vendetta.
And I read in one of your post, about Malayketu. How he successfully fooled chankya, putting mask of a sudhra huva, loving, doting husband.
Chankya had an exceptional Jasoos networking, You bet , the real C would not trust his own shadow, how in the world a puny guy like malayketu , beat him in this game. Pretty unrealistic...C had an aura of brilliance, which is missing here. They need to make the character stronger, persuasive for the actors to enact it better. Because not even the best in business can act the topsy turvy script.
CGM...was a best student any teacher could ask for , but unluckily the guy has few more classes to attend every day. Comedy class with Javeda/ Dhurdhara , psychology (brain washing) class with nagging ' psychotic wife Helena, And P. E class with Nandini dominated by assault, abuse.
What is wrong with showing history without the touch of natkiya rupantar. Akbar was never a one woman man, but mari jodha begum not only turned him to be so, but also to a whipped husband. Where as cgm was a one woman man. Didn't Helena came to his life much later age. ?
Oh well, all is not bad, I have few good things to say.
Tokas is absolutely gorgeous as CGM, the toned body is tantalizing. Unlike as Akbar he was more leaning to the motu category😉. and of course never doubted his powering skills👏. Talking about the hunk, actor who plays padmanand has got abs to show. No facial hair for Tokas is double the treat. He looks much younger and handsome. I don't believe in Jodi, but this is a love story. And one main ingredient to make it a success is a compatibility of the actors. C and N they look adorable together. Better than the previous jodi. Other day I saw a scene of them in the bullock cart. They r amazingly beautiful and convincing. I don't like bring up JA , but Jodha had a protocol for jalal.
Touch me Not,Never
Praise me for ever .🤢🤢
I like my best for the last.
Nandini is NOT jodha...hooray...👍🏼The scene where C apologize to her for some reason( unknown to me). And N says they r hardcore enemies, she would done same thing if situation was swapped. The girl was no were near ego. 🤗Where as jodha always had a ride on her ego. Very high too.
Actress is beautiful, just don't make her abhushan ki dukan. She's got typical, beautiful Indian, badi badi aankhe.
I haven't watched enough to see if she goes on a bhasan spree every other scene.
That was a nightmare in JA. Most annoying.
And hoping she is not the messiah of the Maurya empire. That's exactly was Jodha's glory, as if mougul sultanat khandit hone ki kagaar par tha , and jalal was inhuman, tyrant, going for massacre his awam. And kuwari jodha abodes from heaven, perfect ( kabhi galat nahi ho sakti) and shenshah ko prem sikhaya, jallad se insaan banaya...Now that was freaking crap.
Just read the comment and pls do not answer, u need to ease on it. Take care of your RA.
If and when I go full force watching the show, which I highly doubt. I will read your analysis or occasionally catch some random scene. And will comment accordingly.
