If Chandra had been shown to have this illness, Avantika my dear, he would have been dethroned and sent for treatment, and most likely killed off quietly by the next in line, in this case Malayaketu, who would have taken over the throne and the kingdom. One cannot have a mentally unstable man ruling a kingdom, and Chanakya would be the first to endorse that.

As for Nandini, if she had been examined in greater detail and cross-questioned, the penny might have dropped for Chandra, for he is the one who knows of most of the contradictions in her behaviour, in Pataliputra and in Pataalgram.

In that case, she would have been sent for long term treatment, and one does not know if they would ever have accepted her back into the royal family. The others, bar Chandra, would always have been afraid of her, thinking that the alter ego might surface at any moment. This is because the vipareet vyaktitva was not a gentle, inoffensive one, but patently murderous.

Or else, the supposed alter ego would have been punished with life imprisonment. Either way, Nandini's life would have been hell.

As I pointed out earlier, Chandra could not have let her off simply on the basis of his personal conviction. The scandal would have been horrendous, and she would then have been boycotted and reviled by the whole royal family, headed by Durdhara, bar Chandra, of course. After a while it would have become unbearable for the poor girl.

The only way out is for Roopa to be found and exposed. I have some hope that the walling in is a means for trapping the real culprit, though Chandra would have no idea of its being Roopa. Let us wait and watch.

Your questions are not in the least silly, and that is why, yesterday and today, I have taken extra trouble to try and answer them. But in general, it is not a good idea to reach a conclusion purely on emotional grounds. One should look at the actions of each character keeping all the angles and the likely developments in mind, and also what that character is aware of at that point of time.

I too agree with you, Aunty. Poison therapy perhaps meant he would survive from poison attacks not that he wouldn't be affected even to the slightest degree by it. Anyways Chanakya was going to feed it to him in very minute and mild doses. We never know the kind of impact a major and potent poison was going to have.

I haven't seen the recent episode but from what I get to understand on reading a few posts, Roopa has escaped, Badi Maa keeps mum, Chandra has ordered the walling of Nandini. One or two hours after this is fully accomplished, Chaaya wakes up and spills the beans. Sunanda is imprisoned. Helena and Aapma go scotfree so that they can create more mischief.

Chandra rushes to break the wall with his own hands. Nandini will be in her last breaths. She will be very serious. Chandra will move heaven and earth to save her. He will be in a deeply self-condemnatory mood that he didn't investigate properly and though the signs and clues were there, he simply ignored them.

In the meantime, Chanakya would meet with an eloping Roopa and make an offer to her to take her to Nand so that she can have her revenge. As an additional inducement, he would offer to get her married to Chandra. Roopa will stab Nand and kill him, while he stabs her in return. Or else, after her work is done, Chanakya cleverly gets rids of her. Another possibility is he leaves her high and dry and says that he never meant to keep up his promise of getting married to Chandra, leaving the possibility of the return of Roopa sometime in future into Chandini's lives to create havoc again.

The most high possibility for now is Chanakya's daughter needing saving by Chandra who has to marry her now for some odd reason. So the mother and daughter will remain behind to create confusion and problems for Chandini. Even if Chandra does not ultimately marry her, this storyline is going to run to its last reel before that marriage is prevented.

Chandra will be madly in love with Nandini, and Nandini for some odd reason is going to shun him because she promised it to Chanakya's wife that she would not get close to Chandra. Though the initial part of this prediction is alright with me, the latter part of this prediction is not at all soothing or pleasing to even contemplate. It promises to be full of melodrama and I dread to see that playing out.

Thank you, my dear Pratiksha. At last something other than endless lamentations! But one need not confine oneself to the argument you have advanced.

Putting the best possible spin on the developments on Friday, see, there just might be a different reason for the walling in method of execution for Nandini. The death penalty is a given, but she could have been beheaded - they never hanged royals. Now walling in is the only method of execution where there is a possibility of extracting the condemned person without anyone else finding out about it.

The sentence was pronounced at the dead of night. So the execution could not be before the next day. Which would leave quite enough time for Chandra, who is now recovered, to have a secret exit built in the back. Once Nandini has been smuggled to safety, he can watch the reactions of the rest and try and unmask the culprit. He need not have any idea of the Roopa angle, only that Nandini has been, as he feels instinctively, framed by the really guilty person.

Logically, that's only way to pull this stunt through. Actually,he has to, writers have to build audience's assurance in the character-Chandra. That the king is not dopey, but is self-reliant and can make shrewd judgment in absence of his guru.

Remember the very dramatic scene in CAS where Helena is unmasked in open court by Ashoka? There too he switches tunnels, and it could not have been easy. When he could have been shown doing that complicated exercise , why not Chandra now, with a much simpler one? Jalal did something roughly similar in the Atifa case, he faked his own death to unmask Maham Anga.

I am not saying this is what will happen - the gang here might turn out to be correct- but that it might. And if it does, it will be fascinating. Surely it is better to anticipate something intelligent that to beat one's breast and wail in advance!😉

Is this the way of saying Am I right or am I right? 😉 . I loved it though.
