Yesterday's Episode Stuff:
Some things I never understood in yesterday's episode:
1) If Bhim can lift a column, smash it onto the ground and break the center of the stadium, does this mean that his feet don't have the same power as in his hands (thinking back to the Lakshagrih track)
2) Right before Shaki told the kshatriyas to raise their weapons, Arjuna and Draupadi were shown about to exit. However, after the other kings and Duri, etc. stopped/left we see Drupad coming down to bless his daughter and as such both Arjun and Draupadi pay their respects by touching his feet. So does this mean that if Shaki hadn't said anything then Arjun and Draupadi would have both left and the entire emotional scene that followed wouldn't have happened?
3) While they are adding random characters, I wish they would bring back Rukmini. Pallavi has great talent and I liked her ... so as long as they are going to distort the story, they could have included Rukmini. It would even make sense, since Draupadi's mom is never shown, so Rukmini could instruct Draupadi about marriage life, etc.
On to today's episode:
1) Ok I have to ask... How did Sahadev fall behind. I understand that he was caught up in all those bad signs, but when he tripped and fell (haha), he laid there as if someone had stabbed him multiple times and he didn't have the strength to get up. He just laid there looking at the sky, as if his final moment was about to come (and he even closed his eyes too 😆)
2) Yuddhi was the first one to say "Bhim" ... so either he was really confident in Arjun (seeing as he takes advice from Arjun, I guess he knows him pretty well) or he made a boo-boo 😆
3) So why did Bhatukeshwar stop after getting the jewelry... i mean he knew the Pandavas secret, and they didn't request him to keep it a secret .. wouldn't it have been safer to carry him along ... i mean that was the initial plan.
4) Arjun interrupted his mother's prayers ... doesn't he know better than to do that?
5) Why didn't Draupadi touch Shikandini's feet (like she did for Dhristi) ... she just hugged her. It would have been nicer to show her start to touch her feet and then stopped half way (since Shikandini would have stopped her) and then hugged... it would have added 5 seconds to the show ...
6) Where is Drupad's wife?? Shouldn't she at least be in this, you know, to bid her daughter farewell!!! see this is where Rukmini would have been a perfect addition ... Krishna is Draupadi's friend, and Rukmini would be Draupadi's mom-like friend!!! Or perhaps Starjuna is trying to tell us that Drupad's wife died, and Drupad in his grief went into an all rage mode (hence his constant yelling and extreme hatred of women), and only when Krishna came did he cool down.
7) If Bhisma's intentions were to bring the Pandavas back, then why did he allow the yuvraaj abhisheik? (speaking of which, it's an earlier episode, but when Duri comes to pay his respects to his mother, Dussala chirps "Pranipath Jyesth Brahta" ... and she was ignored 😆)
8) kya baakhwas episode tha... especially that last part ... the promo seems to be just as crazy
EDIT: oh one more thing -- my prediction for the next episode. the stones Krishna gave Draupadi will fly out of wherever she is keeping it... and will fall near each of the Pandavas who are standing in a wide circle around her (just like the Arjun and Drupad scene)
Oh another question --- this is from wayyy back. But I thought Drupad wanted to kill Arjun (revenge), so a) what made him change his mind (IIRC after Krishna came, he had an instand change of heart, but curious if there are other answers) and b) Arjun didn't know that Drupad changed his mind, but he did know that Drupad wanted revenge ...so why would he enter the contest??
EDIT 3: Oh and I'm growing on Yuddhi too! yay yuddhi 👏
