Somehow, there were quite a few things dissatisfactory about what they showed today.

First of all, when Shiva sent Veerbhadra and Bhadrakali to destroy the yagna, all the action took place @ the yagna itself. Here, they showed first Bhrigu on a battlefield, when in fact, he was adding ghee into the kund out of which hordes were emerging, who just got massacred by Bhadrakali and Veerbhadra.

Then today's conversation b/w Vishnu & Daksha was surreal. Even putting aside the question of whether Vishnu had actually promised Daksha his protection, telling him that he'd protect Daksha, but not his life, was meaningless. What did happen was that Vishnu did fight to save Daksha, but got knocked unconscious, after which Veerbhadra was free to slay Daksha.

Also, before the killing of Daksha, none of the Devas or Vishnu or Brahma went to Shiva, much less to apologize, until the damage was done. For them, protecting the yagna was the #1 priority, and when Daksha was killed, the reason they went to Shiva was not to apologize, but rather, to plead for Daksha's life to be restored. In this serial, what was disappointing is that they seemed to be whitewashing the role of the Devas and Brahma in this sordid event.

And it doesn't even make sense. Wny would Brahma et al go to visit Shiva while Veerbhadra and Bhadrakali were still on the rampage? How was Vishnu suggesting that Shiva go and retrieve Sati's body and give her her funeral going to calm Shiva? And if Vishnu had actually said that, why would he cut off Sati's body while Shiva was doing his tandava w/ it? And how does Shiva go there before Daksha gets killed? Is Veerbhadra/Bhadrakali authorized to get Sati's body back?

The precap - if Daksha said 'Om namah Shivaya', at that point, he would have been spared: fact is he didn't. Veerbhadra didn't have the license to forgive him, however, so he beheaded him and tossed his head into the kund. Before that, there was a fierce battle @ the yagna itself b/w the Devas and Ganas, which I hope they show.

Final point - I would have liked it had Mouni played Bhadrakali, even though I'm okay w/ a different actress playing Parvati later.

i am not an expert in mytho...but i find all ur points logical...even i never heard of devtaas going to mahashiv for apology...
and i agree although the dialogue sounded clever at that moment...actually it makes no sense that vishnu is bound to protect daksh but not his life...wat is a being widout life...is he bound to save his body with life or lifeless...rather silly actually wen on the other hand the tandav was being shown with awesome special effects...vadhrakali and veerbhadra's make ups were just too gud...as far as kali goes...i always find her idols frightening...that is one devi i find fearsome...

The crew has so much potential and I hope they don't get a bad feedback just because the story went weird. Though I'm against changing the legends, I can accept a story that is at least almost logical.
