Sangeeta this was your best and most important chapter till date. The C&C combine have used palace gossip to their best advantage by driving a wedge between all the accused in this case, Aapma, Helena and Megasthanese.

The original historical one was only a diplomat on duty, but the current one on our show is a slow motion Machiavelli, with an even slower and exasperating dialogue delivery. I bet there are times when I occasionally end up watching this chap in action, I keep commenting in the background "Sabdh ke moti ab girenge...nahin ab girenge!" (His words of pearl are going to drop down now...now...) But the actor keeps me waiting forever for the dialogues to emerge.

Since your SS is based on the story track on the show, you made Megasthanes the reason why Helena and Aapma finally fall out with each other and the villain of the piece. Neither will Selucus nor the Greek Army protest even if action is taken against all three of them if the allegation of adultery is proven true. They will definitely wash off their hands and simply withdraw to Greece.

The whole action was very crisp, succinct and racy. Very intrigued to see where this game will lead to and how all the villains of our show get exposed in your SS.

Sangeetha 👏
So Chandra using divide and rule policy against the greeks, and trapping them using their own strategy. Great thought and wonderful execution. Its all going according to CC plan, and hiting the right target at right time.

A special mention to the part you wrote where Chandra's heart singing in joy on collecting all evidences proving Nandini's innocense. This is the instance for which is most awaited in the show.
Thank you so much for this update. Waiting for the next. 😳

It's such a wonderful update dear where you make us see what Chandragupta Maurya is actually made up of...he was smartest strategist the maurya dynasty has known, to be only upstaged by his grand son in near future...

Divide and rule never really fails if executed properly...glad to see chandra using that strategy and succeeding too...your CG is so much better than whats been shown off late though yesterday was good...

I'm a new viewer...earlier when the show started i was interested but somehow lost interest...mostly due to Nandini's screeching post Nand's defeat...recently i saw an epi and came across vishkanya...and then i happened to visit the forum and read few posts...and i think the post by siva and other stories by the talented writers of the forum made me want to give the show another try...and boy am i glad i did...now i do believe that i love both Chandra and Nandini 😳...i've been binge watching previous episodes and the dynamics of Chandu and nandu won me over...

The way you have built your story is pretty engaging and it really hooks a reader/viewer in to thinking what will come next...needless to say I absolutely love the way you write...though i might not comment often please believe that i love the way you have woven this story and always wait for an update...

Though i've never read chanakya neet ( Arthshastra)i, i really appreciate the fact that you have undertaken a meticulous research of the same to incorporate those in the story...kudos to you...

In the end all i would like to say is "do update soon "😛

Khush kar diya Sangeeta 👏 Wow, getting to read and visualize such raw, hardcore intelligence of both Chanakya and Chandragupt - the way it should actually have been in the show - was blissful to say the least!!! Loved this chapter, loved how you framed every nuance of it.

And gosh how do you do this man? Every time you beautifully weave the important excerpts and events from the past and bring them up with apt relevance to the present.

Like when Helena thinks how the past rumors had turned out to be true - your mention of Chandra and Nandini's "apparent" Suhag Raat, the infamous Hamam fiasco, the time when Helu got to know about Roopa, while she had locked Nandini away - and all this how they must have been perceived by Helena herself, not how we know it.

Brilliant! Stuff that CV's themselves have forgotten. Please don't call yourself an amateur writer anymore 😎

And I just had to quote this incredible piece of classic Helena dilemma:

If I stay here, Chandra might just spare me, because I am a woman and his wife. Or, he will kill me on Chanakya's instructions. If I run with Mother, she might spare me because i am her daughter. Or, she will kill me for Megasthenes. Should I run, or should I stay?


What a deliciously planned divide and rule between the Yavan team. I am LOVING this! And especially, it was fantastic how you specified the Saam dhan dand bhed. Must repeat, your clarity and attention to detail is extraordinary.

This is now getting reeeallly interesting, intense and ingenious! (Yeah, I love alliterations 😳)
And irrespective of the fact that I am all geared up and raring to read the next chapter, I'd rather ask you to take your time to frame the next one, because I can imagine how much time, energy and headspace these chapters must take to compose.

Intelligent content usually does ... too bad Ekta and her CV's will never know 😆

Out of 5, I'll give this...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
+ ⭐️ stars!!!

The extra one for the intriguing pace and crispness 👍🏼

Thank You uuu 🤗 You created the Benchmark for me . Now i have to excel it with another chapter.


The C&C combine have used palace gossip to their best advantage by driving a wedge between all the accused in this case, Aapma, Helena and Megasthanese.

The gossip maids are also Chanakya spies. Nobody in the Palace knows except Chakku, Chandu and Family.

The original historical one was only a diplomat on duty, but the current one on our show is a slow motion Machiavelli, with an even slower and exasperating dialogue delivery.

@ BOLD 🤣
Seriously, whenever Appu and Meggu come on screen, I feel feverish.😆 I immediately start doing all other domestic work - cutting vegetables, attending mails etc. The comfort of TV Rewind button and Hotstar makes me click and do Fast Forward of their scenes.


Since your SS is based on the story track on the show, you made Megasthanes the reason why Helena and Aapma finally fall out with each other and the villain of the piece.

Villain ? Wait till I make a Comedy piece of him in the upcoming chapter. He is my vadivelu. 😆


Neither will Selucus nor the Greek Army protest even if action is taken against all three of them if the allegation of adultery is proven true. They will definitely wash off their hands and simply withdraw to Greece.

Adultery of Queen is a delicate issue to handle. I checked out the historical Greek punishment for Adultery during the medeival period and used it here to trap Apama.
Also, its the same Adultery game that Appu and Hellu played against Chandu and Nandu. Chandu's statement of "Tooth for Tooth and Nail for Nail" had to resonate in his plans somewhere.

The whole action was very crisp, succinct and racy. Very intrigued to see where this game will lead to and how all the villains of our show get exposed in your SS.

Chanakya's words - Power does not corrupt. Fear of losing power corrupts. The Fear Factor is at play with both the ladies.
Chakku and Chakku uses the weakness of ladies for Gossips (i can see a huge line waiting to hit me here) and uses it to their advantage. They dont want the ladies to plan for an Escape Route. They want to distract their thought patters with suspicions of their Partners in Crime.
They need to shake the tree first, to check if they will get their fruits or not.

Lets see how the Show takes us through this...
Me too can't wait for Apology Track and Chandini moments 😛...


Thank you so much for this update. Waiting for the next. 😳
