yeah but still need more ref if you guys have read it that she is princess of kosambhi can you copy or paste that info here for readers. it would be really kind but all of you have only given 1 ref so you havent won debate yet. you have to give 4 reliable sources which say she was princess of ksambhi and not daughter of dhannu plus also give name of dhannu daughter.
I disagree coz CGM married dhanadand daughter who is his first wife and we all know name of his first wife durdhara

i can't copy paste it as its in the text book of history for gradun students which is recomended & approved bt Central Govt.!!
so u can't say that dhurdhara was D's daughter.
i agree that she was his 1st wife but not D's daughter!!

well you wrong i got 3 references and found it khushi has cleared this fact so i want you all to agree on this that Durdhara was dhanadand daughter
here they are:

1st according to Tribhuvan das L shah ( historian ) ,
2nd is from the book of Radhakumud Mukherji's book of History,Chandragupt Maurya and his Time...
3rd ref book is Virendra kumar gupt's novel Vishnugupt
Chanakya,Amarsatya prakashan-delhi. ..
** From all above resources - we can say that Durdhara was daughter of Dhananand !!

khushi posted this now tell me you guys have less evidence everyone posting 1 source and some are posting source from net which isnt even sourced.

durdhara was not diodoara neither was she princess of some other state. dhanadand daughter name isnt kalyani or nandini. i read that on net again that was said without evidence.

i have request before saying anything see if that info is from reliable source. Many books say dhanadand was sent to exile after defeated and chanakya got durdhara married to CGM so he can get the throne as there were some people who wouldn't allow CGM to sit on throne as he did not belong to royal family.

Acc to this source it shows CGM got married after defeating dhanadand.First wife of CGM was durdhara. In some books it mentions that D daughter was given to CGM but it doesnt give their names which can imply it was in fact durdhara. Now if they D daughter is different then how can CGM marry both at same time. He doesnt seem king who would waste time in marriages. His other wives must have come from different stages in his life as he must have been into polygamy like other kings.

its shown in chanakya serial which was based fully on Mudhrakhshahsa.

Now give more evidence than this also give name of dhanadand daughter and put source down so we can check it out. I appreciate your views but each of you have only given 1 source telling us. People are more likely to believe what most historians say which is that D was dhanadand daughter. some books say CGM married D daughter but name isnt given so we cant say she wasnt.

hey arushi thank me looks like your thread big hit so to make bigger hit i will introduce another fact. This isnt related to show but history of Ashoka Maurya 😉 so here the fact its in 2 parts

1)Princess Kaurwaki is not fictional character i know what they portrayed was total fiction acc to you. But I tell you in some parts of India Kaurwaki is idolised because she lead a war against Magadh when Ashoka attacked kalinga. she got women and men to fight against Magadh.

2) Kaurwaki did marry Ashoka but no love story like shown in movie. Kaurwaki was daugther of fishermen but unlike movie Ashoka was so mesmerised by her beauty that he forcefully abducted her and got married to her. Ashoka went on 2 year exile and not much is known so its possible that he met kaurwaki during that period anything can happen 2 years is long time. Unlike movie he cant have got married to her. She converted to Buddhism and became Ashoka's 1st wife. She was immortalised in the Queen Edict which was one of the minory rock edicts erected by Ashoka. The edict identifies her as the second queen of Ashoka and mother to Tivala. Legend also tells of a daughter born to Ashoka who died not long after birth named Jo-sanne, born after Tivala (the origin of her name is unknown but said by some to be given by a Kalingan priest who had envisioned her birth and name). She is still venerated in parts of the Kalinga district as an immortal princess- protector of her father's throne.[1] I found this on wikipedia but its sourced and many internet sites claim that Ashoka met kaurwaki during his 2 year exile although that contradicts my theory.

Ashoka before attacking kalinga also said he had old relationship with that state i read it somewhere need to get reference but surely i will post it

I have heard this from some indians and they say then been there.

so you guys bring out your sources and prove she is not real person. Acc to me she was and some texts also say that. How true well all up to you go on then start to prove me wrong😉
