Chapter 17

Nandini replied to all the questions so politely and courteously
it showed what a well mannered lady she is now
she respects every one and knows her limits too
Acharya tried to test her in as many possible ways as he knew
but she passed them all with flying colors
Of course normally what elders ask us to do is for our welfare
but of course there are exceptions like Nand Avantika

@BOLD - He grilled in all ways possible. He tested her temper by asking "you mean I control your husband" (generally this is where all Bahus vow to take control of her husband from their MIL's clutches), and then her patience by saying "you are a sweet talker" (this is where girls start back-answering their elders) and then by saying "is this how you impressed my boy" (this is where girls in love marriage totally lose their temper and shout) ... and finally after testing her, he wanted to find whether she loves Chandra wholeheartedly and accept him as her husband by asking questions indirectly about Malay.


In a short time she also has understood Chandra Acharya bond so well
she is always so eager to know if she has made any mistakes
and is ever ready to correct her mistakes at the earliest chance
this is another sign of a queen for the people

So True. Unless you're ready to correct your mistakes, you cannot correct mistakes of others in your kingdom.

I think sweet talking comes to her by nature it is not a conscious act of her
she needs to learn though that some people can't be managed by sweet talks
in fact they try to take advantage of her sweet talks and in those cases she needs to use other ways
she is a very eager compliant and earnest student
Wow I am impressed that she knows that just any one can't impress Chandra
she has that trust faith and confidence on him - a really good sign

@BOLD - Yes, she has learnt all books and has all theoritical knowledge. But lacks worldly wisdom because she has never stepped out of the Palace all these years, and now constantly on the run out with her army
She knows Chandra doesnt get impressed with anyone, because this comes from her experience with him. More on that later... 😊

Acharya wants her to explain in detail about her idea of royal blood and birth
she explains it so well and pleases him with her answer
Of course a person is known by his karma and not by birth or blood
How well she described Chandra there - I just loved that part

Glaring examples are Nand, Avantika, Nandini and Chandra and even Malay... he wants to check if she respects the real worth of Chandra or marrying him because he is a King.

I feel if given a chance she can keep on speaking on Chandra for hours
when she speaks of him she has such a dreamy look in her eyes

YEsss 😛

Of course she meant she belongs to him heart mind and soul
but then she clarified when Acharya asked about it specifically

Moora is overhearing the conversation. So, that was for her benefit too - that her Bahu loves her son and that she did not say yes because she wants Nand to be released. .
Acharya wanted to clearly hear from her - that she loves Chandra and that her heart and mind both belongs to him. Why its important for him to hear where Nandini's heart and mind lie comes later.
she also knows he will always be bound to his people
so she can't have him for herself ever and she accepts it so easily

thats such an important realisation for a Royal - that their life is not theirs, but it belongs to the public.

I am sure she will be his strength and not his weakness
she just needs to learn some people skills that is all
Just like in JA just before their consummation scene
Jalal had told Jodha that his heart will always belong to her
and their names will be always taken together
I think CN case is very similar ; their names also will be taken together always

oh, is it?

I love how Acharya blessed her after this and she was so happy
she will really be a great DIL too as she understand her MIL so well
she knows Moora may be a bit apprehensive about her initially
I am sure she will go out of her way to resolve all their differences
She wont ever let Chandra feel sandwiched between her and Moora
she will give her 200 % in this relation it is so clear
she wont ever let any differences creep up between her and Moora

Thats a good sign isnt it? Nandini is aware that she will have to change according to the new family and Moora is aware that Nandini has been victimised - though both dont know much about each other in detail.

I know when she will know of what all Nand Avantika did to Moora and her family
she may have a total breakdown and then Chandra will have to handle her
it will be very hard for her to face him and his family after knowing the truth
she will die in her mind under the burden of guilt and shame

So true Priya ! Her dose of shocks not over yet na?

But she will keep the family intact at any cost now

This is where Nandini proves different from Avantika and Durdhara. There's a similarity here between Nandini and Sujan for this statement.

She already trusts him now and she just has to maintain it
at times it becomes difficult for a girl to trust her partner more than her parents
but in this case she already had a glimpse of the real face of her parents
so it will be easier for her and Chandra will really want the best for her
She wont ever break his heart as then she too will break

@BOLD - True. More on this in coming chapters.

Acharya should have sent her the Vaid ji
we could have got some more nok jhok and khatta meetha moments
Poor girl she does not know Acharya knows who the Vaid ji was
If she knew she would have been tomato red I am sure

Yesss 😉 she would have been tomato red for sure !!!


Nandini was going through the age old potential test by her would be MIL
here she again passed eith flying colors and won over her
with Moora on her side her battle is half won I think
at times I feel she is like Hermione as she has the answer to everything always

Now that you mention it, yes, even i feel she is more like Hermione. She has all the bookish knowledge and smartness, but lacks world experience and adventure.
Moora on her side is definitely half war won for Nandini.

Now Acharya's words about the near future are scaring me
I assume he is talking of the conspiracy Nand made against Chandra ?
Or is it something else ? I hope CN emerge winners again after this problem
It's not something to do with Nandini twin sister right ?

Yes, for all the questions 😉 ... He made his predictions based on the horoscope and planetary positions.

I loved Chanakya saying about one more day

This was your idea ! You wished how will it be if CN says it? That made me realise that I have given the One More Day concept to all vamps and villains but not the good side of the gang.

Uff I love to hear this one more day thought from them both
I think Chandra is a mixture of Ron and Harry at times
He has a slight disregard for the rules , is brave and can do anything for the people he loves

Yeah, he suits Harry a lot. Chandra is more like Knowing the Rules, Bending the rules a bit, but not Breaking the rules completely. which is why he is more torn between Right and Wrong in his life.

I loved the way Dev can talk to animals and birds
it proves what a golden hearted person he is

He is the Tarzan of the jungle 😊 Chandra tries to live happily wherever he is, be it the palace (he was playing with Pipli Prince there) or the jungle (he was playing with Nandini here). He gels easily in the environment and is comfortable with people around.

Of course he would be popular with the women
I know the temptation of the forbidden is too much
His wish to see the princess staying hidden reminds me of Aladdin
He too had done the same thing in the story

I like the inference you made here perfectly. I too had kinda Aladdin and Tarzan in mind when I wrote it - when they saw a woman for the first time.

Cruel Nand and his obsession with Nandini always goes on
and he wanted to force it on the people too - pathetic
Of course all this was new and strange to Dev and he was confused
so he was curious to see the princess after all this
I think this is the first time he is seeing the major discrimination between royals and the commoners

@BOLD - yes, that was the first time he came out of the jungle, to see the so-called royal princess. His reaction was natural, since he did not see all this discrimination in the jungle.

Wow the way he quenched his thirst it was brilliant
he made up an innovative way to make him drink water

When I went to Rajasthan, I saw this huge turban on each person's head, which is more than 10 feet long. Its always like a rope. When I asked them, this is the reply I got. Rajasthan being a water-scarce state, if they dig the well like in other parts of the country, the water dries up faster when exposed to sun. So, the well is generally dug almost like a pipe. So, when a person is thirsty, they will remove the turban and put the rope-like-turban inside the pipe. The water gets soaked up in the turban. The cloth retains the dust / mud in the dirty water and when squeezed, gives only the pure water. After washing their face and drinking water, they will tie it back on their head. The wet turban of 10 metres protects them from getting heat stroke.

I find him so similar to Amarendra Baahubali too
so compassionate so kind so smart so sharp so just

Yep !! Amarendra Bahubali also was the rightful heir to the throne, but he manouvered his way around Ballala and his criminal father, while doing the right things for his Mom and the People.

Hiding on a tree among the leaves is another brilliant idea
no one will spot him at all and he can see everything
Of course Nandini is totally opposite to Nand
she is everything what he is not and vice versa
It is clear how much Nandini loves to be in the open air
by heart she loves nature and so feels at ease in this surrounding

@BOLD - Have i made it clear? where? how? Which line makes you think so?

So Malay was so arrogant and vain right from his childhood
Of course Dev hated Malay right from his first statement
Dev understood how vile Malay was and he was right

This is like Harry and Malfoy no? Pitted in opposite ends right from the beginning 😆

Fruits are God's gift to humans and one should never disrespect it
Felt so bad for the boy who had come to her with the tamarind
he only wanted her to have some and that brute Malay abused him
Such a behaviour can be expected from Nand easily
This was a small example how Nand treated the commoners

Yes, I wanted to bring that in the story how cruel and insensitive he is.

Crying was a way Nandini protested but Nand did not understand it
he just settled the matted his way and took away Nandini
She was so young that she could not even do anything to help the boy

Yes, he just settled the matter in his own way, coz Nandini is seldom going to come out in the open again. Nandini cried as a protest, but confused at her father's behaviour. She was too young to understand.

Wow so Dev has an aim just like Arjun from Mahabharat
this scene reminded me of the scene where Arjun had to aim at the fish eye in Draupadi swayamvar
with this small action he made her so happy
Of course she did not know how to eat it
poor girl had to hide it from that brute Nand
Wow so she met her future husband today and he gifted her a tamarind on their 1st meet
that was so sweet na ?

Yes... the catapult scene was inspired by Bahubali where Amarendra aims through Anushka's jumka.

Acharya thought it is actually Malay
But I presume Malay had already met her before this day
but Acharya did not know of it so he thought it wrong
He was interested in Dev too but could not follow him then

Correct. This is the first mistake that Chanakya did. Obviously, royal families would land for a particular occasion a day or two in advance, because those days they have to travel on foot, horse and elephant only. Obviously, Malay's family should have landed atleast the previous day to attend her Birthday Function. Acharya went purely by the "horoscope and destined king" thoughts. Thats where he went wrong.

I am amazed that he thought of all that he had learned
and then went to meet her and make her happy
This is the first time he is doing something alone and that too so risky
love had already bloomed at such a young age and it is showing signs

Yeah, total bahubali moment na?

I understand why he found the room familiar - it was his room after all
she was using the room now so everything was different
at such a young age he understood how different Nand and Nandini were
This is their first interaction and it is so sweet
but this is like out of old classic love stories - secret meetings on a night
she loves sitting on the floor again something that means she is so down to earth
it is so clear she does not like the throne and the royal treatment

We show signs of how we are going to be in future from our childhood itself no? I wanted to bring in some signs of Nandini - like gentle, kindhearted, confused, lonely, down-to-earth, friendliness...

He gave her such a simple effective and deep solution
live life your way - he showed her the way at such a young age
In fact this is the first lesson he gave her that can help her later
he taught her to test and do everything and know if it is good or not
he showed her a new way to think that can mould her later

Yes, she never forget her friendship, she never forgot Veer and his teachings! Its interesting to note that he was able to influence her decisions, while Malay was not able to even impress her. This influencing her decisions by showing her the right path - he did it in the Camp also - by saying "you are not your father. Do things for the greater good".

haha I loved how he warned her not to scream
I am sure even if he had not told her she would not have screamed
she would have never let him fall to any danger
Oh wow so from this time she noticed his eyes
I wonder if she will recognize the eyes when he grows up

Yeah, even i enjoyed while writing that part.

how happy he must have felt seeing her enjoy it
I think from this time only their hearts started to unite
her simple innocence and her way of enjoying it is just so special
hmm so he likes to show off his courage right from this time

Especially when he protrudes his tiny chest out , it was so cute.
Here, She is gentle. He is courageous. After Swayamvar, he turns patient, she becomes his saviour.

She is really like an angel trapped in a brute's kingdom
it is so clear she feels suffocated caged up in the castle
she wants to go out and play like the others
and Nand made sure she does not have any friends too
how readily he agreed to come and play with her
he had such a gentle heart from such a young age
I just love this - both having a secret path to meet each other
they are just children but it seems more like a secret love affair
her cute antics really amused him a lot
so he gave her a small bribe - tamarinds - to meet him
he was also equally curious to meet her again
now this was the first safety precaution he took for her
removing the skin of the tamarinds - this is also so special
I am sure he was more worried for her safety
Chandra made her do what he had wished to
but then she also wanted to do those things willingly
but yes he made her smile and removed her loneliness
it was so clear he was very impressed by her

@BOLD - I was trying to bring in the innocence of their age and friendship, which would help them strengthen their bond in future. But after I read your lines, i think this too makes sense.
He could have ended the meet in a single round. He chose to continue it by bribing her with more tamarinds, and she accepted it willingly. I think there's a certain understanding between them from within that shines here. He was impressed by her and she was impressed by him. She was worried about him and he was worried about her. He wanted to see her and she wanted to play with him. Both accepted each other's friendship willingly and were happy within the confined circumstances.


he is slowly teaching her so many things so simply
and yes we should try everything in life
then only we gather experience and know what is right
he is also slowly making her learn to protest against wrongs

I think this is where her inner conscience woke up, but she doesnt know until she grows up and sees Nand's change of colours - which is now.

here he is acting just like a proper king unknwoingly
again this is a major hint that he is a born ruler

Yep ! even Dev doesn't know it!

She was sad at that painful memory and did not like it
he is inspiring her to use her powers for good causes
but she knows Nand and I thinks she fears his temper
but Dev taught her to do the right thing in any circumstance
all he is teaching her will be useful for her later
I think this is how she slowly went against Nand and Avantika
her subconscious mind remembered all his teachings

Yes .. When a good person directs us on the good and correct path, the directed person turns out good ! Just like Bahubali -2 , Anushka's mama who is a coward turns into a brave person...

Of course all this was a heavy dose for her so he changed the topic
He impressed her by showing his friendship with the owl
I am sure she too wanted to have a life like him then
just 2 meetings and she is so impressed with him
all that he tells is so simple yet so deep and meaningful
She wont ever let her Veer now that is for sure

Veer is special to her .. she will never leave him. 😊 watch how this plays out between them in the coming chapters.

wait how did he get Nandini's chart ?
he had never gone to the palace till now right ?

This will come later in Chanakya's chapters.

Strange Nand wants confirmation about his future
and he will also punish the one who speaks the truth
then he wants to hear only lies about the future
Good Chanakya was smart and he thought of an alternative
This chart reminded me of both Ramayan and Mahabharat
Ravan also had a curse on him and it was said his cause of death will be a woman
In Mahabharat there was a prophecy that Devaki's 8th son will kill Kansa
and Draupadi was born from fire to ruin the Kauravas

All arrogant men who think women are nothing but entertainment piece gets the curse from a woman only... Ravan's curse here suits the profile best ! Nand got the curse, so was worried about his future.

who were the 2 Brahmin women who cursed him ?
I want to know. were both of them wives of priests ?
Cause of his death will be a woman - Nandini ?

Not exactly. But wives of learned people. Nandini is ALSO a cause, but not Nandini alone. The chart did not clearly say the exact number of women who will be cause of his death... After all, Nand did not trouble one single woman like Ravan 😃

Nand killed the Raj Jyotish but why ?
He did not blurt any secret in front of Chanakya ?
Just as he has questioned Nand decision ?

Nand was in a bad mood right? He had got the curse and wanted to find out a remedy. But he did not want the Raj Jyotish to know his weakness... thats why an outsider was pulled to read the chart, so that they can kill the outsider after the reading was done.
But Raj Jyotish came inside with his big mouth, questioned Nand , and bought his own death.

Nand can twist any words to his benefit isn't it ?
Chanakya advised him well yet he twisted his words
Chanakya applied his wits and controlled the situation to an extent

So cunning and cruel he is 😡

He should also have thought of some way to escape the soldiers
So this is when Dev saved him and Chanakya was impressed
It was good that there were only 2 soldiers at that time
else it would have been a bit difficult to manage more
Seems luck was on Chanakya side on that day

Yes, Chanakya had thought of escaping the soldiers himself, but Chandra didnt give him a chance 😊
Chanakya really had luck on his side that day - he met Chandra and Nandini on the same day.


King of the jungle - so he indeed considers himself a king
right at that age - quite impressive I must say
Wow they monkey and eagle really helped him ? amazing
Subconsciously he has already absorbed all his dance master's words
but he does not know it himself
wow he remembers only his mistakes and not his good deeds
another strong sign of a peoples king
Hmm he is yet to make his own identity that is true
What he said about contentment is so right
one should always have an ambition or a goal in life
he follows what he said to Nandini - live by your own rules
he is so matured at this age itself
he wants to explore his potentials and abilities for himself
I think Acharya already saw a potential in Dev then
as some one who could defeat Nand and punish him
Correct me if I am wrong in this assumption
So he wanted to mentor him by himself and teach him everything
Hmm both are very independent minded and determined
One is determined not to leave the jungle one is determined to teach him
Dev wants to take his decisions for himself - he is a born leader
he does not want to follow some one - he makes his own path

@BOLD - Yes, Chanakya wanted to train the destined King and husband of Nandini himself. Why? We will come to know later. Remind me, if I dont.

@RED - I loved your assessment so much, Priya. This is exactly what i had in mind. My inspiration was Ramakrishna and Vivekananda. Both were fiercely independent. Vivekanand did not accept ramakrishna immediately as his guru. He tested him to check if he has the ability and worthy enough to teach him. Ramakrishna on the other hand was testing Vivekanand and shaping his personality time and again, finally taming him to become his disciple. Vivekananda did not bend easily and Ramakrishna did not break his resolve easily.
Taming is not the exact word - but Chandra had a bit of rawness to him and thinking himself to be a king at that age could be seen as arrogance by some - Chanakya was persistent in picking and "shaping" his personality and future.


he took a day to think and decide for himself
You can take a king out of the kingdom but you can't take away the aura of a king
Chanakya saw that he has all the potentials to be a peoples king
Even though he did not know his identity then yet he saw Dev as a future king
His sharp eyes recognised the hidden talents in Dev
This part again resembles Krishna from Mahabharat
Krishna was actually a royal but grew up in a gwala's house
but still he was a sort of a leader of his group - Dev was similar

So well put, Priya !!!!! You can take Ram out of Ayodhya, but you cant take Ayodhya out of Ram...
Krishna's reference was so apt !! 👏

Dance Master saw this as a golden chance for Dev so agreed
If Chanakya mentored Dev then he could learn everything he was supposed to

Correct ! Its so unfortunate the Dance Master could not disclose all details to Chanakya. They say - sab ke liye time aana chahiye... If only he had met Chandra in the first meet itself, if only he had Chandra 's horoscope earlier...

I wonder if apart from Nandini any one else would also be the cause for Nand death
Is there any chance of Avantika also being a cause ?

She too is a cause ! 😉

Ok so both of them taught each other that they knew well
teaching and learning is also such a great way of bonding
It is just natural that she felt so at ease with him
they are both so alike in this aspect
Both of them understood each other so well
Good that the guards never knew about them

Yes ! I wanted to show that both of them are each other's strength and each other's weakness. Wahtever Dev did not know, she taught him... his refined manners that he learned from Nandini as a royal helped him impress Chanakya. Whatever Nandini did not know, he taught her... his teachings helped her in future to be righteous and his animal language taught her to tame and befriend Badal, a wild horse.

He understood that he had formed a wrong opinion on her
Being with her showed him how different from Nand she truly is
So he wanted to ask her views about him going away
means he was making her a part of his life and his decisions
her views mattered to him and he did not want to leave her
what a deep bond they had formed already they did not know

Even i did not know! I wanted to bring in his feelings that her views mattered to him. he didnt want to leave his best friend coz she will feel lonely. But i didn't know that he had made a part of his life and his decisions. thank you for noticing it Priya ! 😳👏

Wow she is also so matured in her reply
she did not want to be an obstacle in the way of his progress
she took such a decision at that age this is so telling
this means she wont ever stand in his way to success

I just realised... this is exactly what she answered to Chanakya when Moora was listening from inside no? that she will never try to own Chandra coz he belongs to the People... that she wont be an impediment in his progress.

Aww he copied his actions from before how cute is that
Of course their friendship will always remain intact
she has only one friend now and she is about to lose him too
wow what he answered her in reply to what if they meet as enemies
they were doing exactly that on the war field

Both of them had something to lose that day. Chandra lost both his best friend and Guardian Dance Master... Nandini lost her one single best friend she had and her loneliness was back...
Chandra pain is much more realistic and felt, coz Nandini did not know that she was caged for a reason till now... so, apart from her loneliness and her best friend, she didnt miss so much as Chandra.
Yess ! They were doing exactly that on the warfield. I specifically wrote that line to make my reader remember that scene. And you did it perfectly !


hahaha soak him up in a jam of tamarind ? that is a great idea really
wow so he made a special place for her in that tree

I enjoyed writing that tamarind jam part - an easy fruit for civilians, easily avaialble in jungle and not provided for royals, and wierd enough to make a jam out of it 😆
I hope I have not made the "sitting on the lap" part sound vulgar ??? You didnt mention anything about it. I wanted to bring in the innocence of both children and their camaraderie, his care not to get her into trouble.
But I was in two minds writing about it. As a child, uptil my generations, we used to sit on our brother's lap and walk hand in hand with brothers, cousins etc. I dont know how and when the opinion changed that walking hand in hand has to be only between lovers. So, i guess you must have found sitting on the lap of chandra wierd ?

Chanakya was right he had a chance to meet Nandini now
His heart was right but he ignored his heard and heard his mind
Dev is a royal prince and has the potential to be a peoples king
I can understand he dance master's dilemma
he could not trust a stranger so easily and give him such important info

If only the dance master had told him about Dev... things could have been completely different and Malay would have been out of the picture and Nandini would never have come under the radar of Pervert Parvatak !

So Nand had got to know that Chanakya was not killed so he sent this army to kill him now
I feel so bad for the gypsy men that they died such a cruel death
reminds me of Surya and his men's death in the jungle

Nand did not know dear. Those two soldiers ego was insulted by Dev. A small boy scared them off in a jungle... so they went and brought more soldiers to throw their power around. Also, they had not killed the brahmin as per the King's order.
I did not understand the Surya story dear.. can you explain ?

Dance master asked Chanakya his last wish which was his dream
Chanakya granted him and Dev too promised he will fulfill Dance master's wish
Poor Dev he lost the only person who was with him till now after Moora
This was his first experience of losing a loved one in front of his eyes
Nand really unknowingly made his strongest enemy here
Now Dev and Chanakya both have the same aim
they both have promised the same thing to the Dance Master
He is right overthrowing does not necessarily mean death
Nandini also wont ever knowingly be the cause of Nand death

Thats right. He was 3 years old when he lost his parents and his Nurse - the same age, Nandini found him and was too innocent to understand what he was saying.
Fate chose the right enemy for Nand... Fate was turning for good for chandra because Chanakya took him under his wing on that day, and Fate had turned bad for Nand, coz he made himself an enemy of the Jungle King, an equal, not by age but by worth and credibility.

He did a major miscalculation and blunder here
he decided to train both Dev and Malay equally in knowledge and skills
He should have thought of the chance of Nandini marrying Dev too

I am covering Chanakya's self confession to Chandra of a few mistakes that he committed in his past - in the Camp - along with the love story, so that the reader where he went wrong and how... Writing a separate chapter for Chanakya with this past, i think, would confuse the reader. In that case, i wont be able to cover Nand's feelings, Chandra's feelings etc. What do you feel?

Malay is elder to Dev still lost at his hands miserably
this again proves age has nothing to do with efficiency and skills
Mostly all of Dev's initial opinions were right except on Nandini

Amen ! Nand also underestimates Chandra coz he is just a boy in front of him. Malay also did the same mistake...
Chanakya was the only one who understood him perfectly !
Chanakya's assumptions were mostly right, except for Chandra. Chandra's opinion about everyone is right, except for Nandini 😆 he always makes a wrong assumption coz of his internal fight between his heart and mind 😳

finally Chanakya realized his mistakes with time
Err what tricks and tactics of Chanakya Malay got ?
Please give a few examples if possible

Umm... those gurukul days were different from today's teachings, Priya. Today they teach you Theory first, make you accustomed to all knowledge, and then give you practicals. Thus, you will find all ratta-marofying candidates get so good marks in their exams but fail in their career...
Those days, they will give you practical exams first and then give you the rationale for it.. Such lessons will never leave your mind. Like, when you enter a room, suddenly someone will hit you with a stick. Then, the lessons comes - ALWAYS BE ON GUARD. NEVER LET YOUR GUARD DOWN OR ELSE YOU'LL BE KILLED...
Such lessons are taught to all students. So, even though Malay did not have the proper expertise or the practice or the inclination to learn, he knew what Chanakya would do - rather what Chanda would do - when he takes a certain war strategy.

Good that he knew that Malay is impotent so Nandini wont have a future with him
Of course Malay himself can't do anything so he gave all women to Papa darling
Chanakya should not have shared his plans for Nandini with Parvatak
but again he did not know what Parvatak was in reality
But good that he had heard Malay boasting of the plans
he knew what a danger Nandini could be in and so could make alternative plans
The swayamvar rumor was a good solution now

Cant say whether it was his luck or Nandini's good luck, but he was fortunate to overhear it on time , so that he could make alternate plans... bechara Chandra was put in a dilemma, but yet he didnt say anything against his Acharya and went on his mission.

Acharya is a strict tester as he checks from all angles
But Nandini succeeded beyond her expectations
To have a flawless empire you yourself have to be flawless first
Yes she has all the bookish knowledge
she just needs training on practical matters
I too gathered this much that Chandra is not easily impressed
Some of the so called royals in this story behave like cavemen
I understand both Acharya and Moora needed some assurance
that they had chosen the right girl for Chandra
I assume heart and mind is related to loyalty
so Acharya wants Nandini to have it fully for Chandra
I feel bad for the royals at times - they have no privacy at all
most of the times they are surrounded by people
yes JA had such a scene just before the SR
Yes both Moora and Nandini know what to expecr
Nandini is very flexible as it is so she will adjust
she is like the water that takes the shape of the container
Moora too will handle Nandini with care
I just feel so bad for her thinking of the shocks she will get
when she knows what Avantika and Nand has done to Chandra family
I got that Nandini is very similar to Sujan
Both are adopted but both grew up to be good persons
I know it will be hard for her to believe Chandra over Nand
but she already has a small idea how cruel Nand can be
Oh I would love to see a blushing Nandini
Having sasuma on her side is always an advantage
Loved to see the good people also say about 1 more day

Childhood friends now in adult stage... Feelings changing without both their knowledge... hmm... 😉

Chandra got to know that she still remembers Veer n he has a special place in her heart 🤪But will she accept HIM if she gets to know Veer n he are same?

Hmm... Dont know if she will come to know ... 😊

Ahha Sujan loved duru...Nice twist 😉But she is so greedy 😡The person who taught her everything she forgot about him when Chandra came 😒Good decision by him but 👍🏼

Didn't want Durdhara as a stupid maharani who jumped like a bunny everywhere in the CN Show. Want to bring in a grey shade to that character.

Chandra is like both Harry and Ron
and at times I feel he is also like Shri Krishna
but he hesitates a lot while breaking rules
He is like Tarzan and also like Mowgli
all the jungle animals used to love Mowgli a lot
He can blend in any place very easily
and win the hearts of every one around him
Both Aladdin and Chandra saw their ladies hiding
and also both the ladies were surrounded by the kings people
Of course in jungle there is no discrimination at all
Humans are far worse than animals when they stoop so low
Any one will be confused seeing this
wow that is a very good way to use the turban
I did not know that they made wells like pipes there
Amarendra did not manipulate that much
he was always on the right side of the law
Bijjaladeva and Bhallaldeva were too much for him
he could have easily stayed in Mahishmati
but he chose to leave with Devasena and lead a normal life
I wish he had acted a bit more clever
then he would not have died an early death
you wrote that she had a bright smile on her face
then also her talks with Dev at nights about being trapped in the castle
that easily tells that she loves to be out in the open
you also told she longs to go out and play like the others
Oh yes Malay and Malfoy sound so similar as well
Thankfully this Malay has no Snape with him to help him
I can't call Parvatak Snape as that will be an insult to Snape
plus their characters are totally opposite and polarisingly different
We have seen so many examples of Nand cruelty already
he never thought Nandini can come out in the open again
he will keep her shut in her own castle right ?
he never thought that fate can change and turn the tables
It was his advantage that Nandini was too young then
oh yes there was that human catapult scene in Baahubali part 2
where Mahendra sens soldiers inside the castle very cleverly
yes that was a major mistake in Acharya horoscope reading
from such a young age Nandini had captured Chandra heart
and he did not even know this at that time
they say morning shows the day similary childhood shows the future person
it was clear how Nandini will grow up to be
but strangely Nand missed all these signs in his carelessness
It is said that some thing leave deep impression in th childhood
and that affects out whole life - same case was for Nandini
Malay had met her so often yet she was impressed by a strange boy
Chandra always influenced her right from her childhood
I enjoy their childhood nok jhok a lot
they compliment each other always so well - a perfect match made in heaven
their was both innocence and friendship but also there was a deep boon between them
He would have ended the meeting in a single meet if he was not interested
but he also wanted to meet her talk to her spend time with her
so met her whenever he could and spent long hours with her
this is a 2 sided relationship right from the start
a perfect 2 way relationship where both the partners are equal participants
Chandra had sowed the seed of justice in her mind
that took time and grew up and when she matured she became very just
then she started to question Nand and his actions
of course Dev did not have the maturity to understand the value of his decisions then
yes with good guidance even the weak and downtrodden can become very worthy
neither of them will leave each other as both are very special
