Hi all. I agree with you but I need a suggestion from you. I recommended this show to my relatives and friends and forced them to watch this show. And they finally watched some episodes especially the Mahakali episode and they all are saying"rubbish" "what is this?" Now my some of my freinds belong to very orthodoux family and from my relatives, my paternal aunt is vaishnavite,my uncle doesn't take a drop of water before he finishes his daily worship of 'Narayan Shila' and my uncles who live in our ancestral house in village are Shaivite and worshiped Lord Shiva everyday.Some of them are not so enlighten of puranas and some has good knowledge of puranas and vedas. They start scolding me for recomending this show. Now please suggest me what should I say to convince them?I love this show and want my dear and near persons also do watch this. So what should I tell them?


That was a big mistake - since they are genuinely religious, they were watching this show for authenticity, and not finding it, they refused to keep watching. You shouldn't try to make them continue. Recognize that while this show delights those who watch it for entertainment, it falls short for those who watch it for both entertainment and religion, and would definitely turn off those who watch it for devotional reasons alone. For that last category, this is certainly not the show for them.

Minakshi is right - it's surprising to see a Mahadev centric show have the sort of pro-Vishnu propaganda that one can expect in Vishnu puranas, but does not see in the Shiva purnas - like Vishnu making Parvati's lingam resistant to Mahadev's attempts to knock it over.

@mrmrfrever, convincing our elders is difficult at times😆There are risks of recommending a show to them, it doesn't turn upto their expectations as the approach of the makers is different compared to other Mytho shows. Actually strong Vaishnavites are happy at the way Vishnuji is shown here. Generally Shivites are broad minded, they'll like everything is centered on Shivji.

actually Shivaji is shown in good light only but it's Parvati who is not being shown right

the disclaimer of the show says everything-as to what can be expected from the show
"its a daily based on mythological events,created solely for the purpose of entertainment"
and this is the very fact that made mahority of us watch DKDM in the first place is because it is diffrent

regarding the stories i agree with meenaxi too,its just an interpretation of the stories...they can be interpreted in any means ANY way...thats the beauty of our stories that they have more than one side to them...there is no one way to any story here
so many things may be put in a way not agreeable to us
its hard to make each and every person happy!-its impossible actually,even God cant do it😊

i sometimes find my self comming to the forum,reading something and getting hyped up-and then the flow starts
the constant critisim somehow gets to you and begins to affect you...

watch this show as an enetetaining show-youll have no headache what so ever,and will enjoy DKDM better

reg recommendation-i havent recommended it to anyone!but i know people(they are anything but mytho lovers mind you) who love the show and rave about it all the time(specially about Shiva and Parvati),they watch it and love it

its all about the way you look it at

Well said shruti,
Our Puranas's stories are interpreted in different ways. Criticizing a track once, twice is ok but constantly going on & on about it affects our state of mind. They do mention in the disclaimer, there is no intention of hutring religious sentiments of people. Even in India itself Kartikeya's Northen & Southern versions are different. Showing any one version may displease others. It is bound to happen with most of the stories. In such cases it's better to accept what we agree with & ignore the rest. Atleast we do learn some exceptionally good things at times.

Well said guys.this post came just on time as I am seeing many members getting extremely disappointed with whatever is shown recently.We should realize this show is competing with many popular shows of primetime so they have to show it in a way so that people can watch this show too.They very well know people mostly don't prefer to watch mythos so it has been a big challenge for them and they have really worked very hard for it.It's an achievement for them and us that this is among the top 10 popular and successful shows.
Certain things we should believe and accept and certain things we should not,that's it!Just because they are showing Kartikeya and Parvati in a different way,that doesn't mean they are trying to prove that what they are showing is correct and what we know and believe is wrong.They have NEVER said that whatever we are showing is only correct so why should we bother?Let them show whatever they want.In the end of the day,we all know it's just a serial.
We shouldn't forget they have shown us many good episodes too and have increased our knowledge in many aspects specially the spiritual one.We should have zero expectations from the show then only we can enjoy watching it.
