@ Jayatifirst of all welcome to the forum friend...good to have u here...but i m not going to vote in this poll...i have a strong reason for that...i have stopped watching this show...and i'll never watch it again...the way they distorted history...i cant digest it anymore...cant afford to watch Alexander the great in India for 6 years...alex in india for this long is a question mark on our existence as an Indian...if alex wud have stayed in India for 6 years...then i must have been writing this post in greek language😆 ..so coz i dont watch it anymore ...who so ever comes and goes..it doesnt matters to me...now i dont even have any probs wid mrignayani..they can show her as bindusar's mother too...thumbs up from my side...or they can add thousand fake/true stories and have their creative liberty to any extent🤢
@ Sara
i totally agree with u dear...makers don't need to get worried if audience is ready to watch true history...i watched a show on DD years ago...it was based on nawab siraj-ud- daula...and the makers executed the history very well there..they showed his first wife and second wife...they showed him as the way he was..a careless youth at initial stage...then he slowly realized his love for the country...how he become a patriot etc etc...i mean they never tried to show him as a superhero like cgm and chanakya are being shown..they sticked to reality...imagine has portrayed that somehow directly or indirectly chanakya was the reason of alex's death...i find it next to impossible...may be i m wrong coz i dont know whats going on in the show...but still by wu i came to know abt this... even historical characters were human beings...they have their own strength and weaknesses ...acc. to me alex and cgm never shared envy on personal grounds...but here they are showing alexander next to dhananand ..just because the show is based on cgm and he is the hero of the show...they have to show him bigger and better than anything...that too at the wrong time...coz acc to real history..when alex was in India...cgm was a teenager...he never had such a big army at that time...its after alex went back..cgm and chanakya made an army of well trained tribal people...and they also took porus's help to fight against dhannu...that's a different story anyway😉
Note: I mean no offense to any historical characters that i've mentioned...just shared my views coz i think exaggeration of anything more than required can be injurious😊
