Nice update Sia.
Lakshmiji took J's side. If Parvati is sister for Vishnuji, then the Shivansh is a brother for her. Liked the way Vishnuji answered Indra, who came to ask for help but told him it's his duty to save Devas. Let Indra pay for his crime.
So this is what they have changed. In the original Shiva Purana, Lakshmi didn't ask Vishnu not to kill Jalandhar - she asked Jalandhar not to kill Vishnu. There, she knew that in the event of a confrontation, Narayan would get transformed into confetti. So here, the serial twists it around and shows Jalandhar being favored by Lakshmi, and that too, in a manner to put Indra in his place.
Surya above brings up a good point as well - if Lakshmi is so concerned about Jalandhar, where was she when Jalandhar's mom was killed and he needed help? Varuna was MIA when Matsyakanaya's eggs were destroyed, and only appeared to try and prevent Jalandhar from joining the asuras after the damage was done. Somehow, Lakshmi looks like a more of a bholenath in this serial than Bholenath himself.
Dr Vrinda - it's high time Jalandhar kicked her out of asura-lok: the idea that he'd have to marry her, as depicted in this serial, is insufferable. He did the right thing here by telling her not to expect his support from the devas should the need arise. Jalandhar sounds very prophetic here - ultimately, Vrinda does get betrayed by Vishnu (whether they show that in this serial or not is another thing), in the perennial deva road to victory.
