The way Draupadi looked when she realized that it will be Krishna Charitra -- She will learn a thing or two from Krishna getting separated from his Mayyia and his home forever.

The storyteller was too adorable -- the way he said that he has watched Him from afar but still knows him more than all of those who have been closer to him and couldn't understand the Enigma.

He wrapped his hands around himself when he said Karunamayi i think -- so cute.
The far away look in Krishnas eyes. *sigh*

I know!!!

And I thought-- how would Arjun in that situation feel thinking "Holy Cow my BFF is The Lord Himself"

"He protects me and my brothers"

Imagine if we got goosebumps watching it what the actors must have felt???

especially those who believe

and the bard actor --I know him from other shows; just cannot remember his name😕

Just caught the epi online...a few questions -

So, the whole Pandava family is listening to Krishna's story. With clear mentions of HP, Pandu, Kuntibhoja, Pritha being Kuntibhoja's adopted daughter,etc. (& the precap showing Narayana Himself being born as Devaki's son), will the Pandavas conclude that "Krishna = God" at the end of the story?
Or did the Pandavas realize "Krishna = God" during the VH itself?

How does Subhi NOT know / understand her own bro's story?

Draupadi still looked on tenterhooks in the epi. Do the others really know what's up with her, as well as the fate of their kids?

I think everyone already knows or at least suspects Krishna is God..given what he did at the 'Dyut Sabha' ...in fact this Krishna Leela should have been organized for Duryodhan since he is convinced Krishna is a 'maayavi'😆Ironical bc I thought the whole point of Krishna's birth was to teach futility of this world and its maya..

I think Surbhi purposely pretends to be dumb just so that others get a cue to explain Krishna or they think about him..she is supposed to be a Goddess herself so I don't think she's really that dumb.

I don't know about others but Arjun seems to be in major denial...wasn't there a scene where he told Abhi 'your name means immortal'...the whole point of Abhi's death was to provoke Arjun..so till then he will continue thinking 'I have Govind so no one will ever hurt my side..'

The original Mamashri makes Mamashri 2.0 appear kind. The original killed his bacche. 2.0 attempts to kill for his bacche😆

===

Btw why does MM 1.0 seem so familiar??

It's so sad...Kans actually loved Devki. But moment he heard she was going to be the mother of his killer, all the brotherly love flew past the window..

Before talking about hamaare pyaare Nand Lal😆 I would like to make a dedication to Devaki and Vasudev..

If Vasudev wanted he could have easily left Devaki with Kans and used his political connections to escape and marry some other wife..in 21st century there are very few people who would willingly agree to suffer imprisonment with their life partner just for sake of greater good and to save the partner's life..it takes a lot of selflessness and faith on god to make a sacrifice like that...

and Devaki..such a strong woman..had to see her own brother after the life of her children..had all her children taken away from her..any other woman might have died or lost her mental balance but she stayed strong to give birth to the Lord..

Truly..only people like them could have been the parents of our Kanhaiya..

I've to admit I actually liked the episode. Earlier, I wasn't sure about the deviation from the main track but the way the bard introduced Krishna, I had goosebumps.

I also liked the fact that the story is being told for the benefit of the younger generation- Abhimanyu and Draupadi's kids and not just for Draupadi as the promos were suggesting.

Also, liked the mention of Sanjaya- finally he will be part of the peace process

BTW, the actors playing Devki and Vasudev are spot on- that's how I have always imagined them (including Kans too)

Actually speaking..I don't blame Subhi. Even though she is his sister and might know he is god she is still in a way justified in saying 'I haven't understood him nor has Abhimanyu'.

This is the mistake people make..they think god is some kind of puzzle to be decoded or some maayavi who can be defeated with a magic spell...

honestly Krishna is on another plane altogether so why attempt to understand him or decrypt him..what will you get?

In all stories about devotion I see only one thing 'Absolute surrender to God'. There is simply no room for questioning or debate..be it Rukmini's tulsi leaf vs Satyabhama's wealth or Drau's dillemna with durvasa..you are never going to find a 'logical' explanation for it so why beat your head

no wonder Dury and co are going to lose their wits if and when they see his virat roop and even THEN I think the pigheads are going to scramble around trying to find an explanation..like just give up yaar😆

It's a shame that Balarama wasn't there ... they could have had a sweet side distortion where as they are listening to the pastimes of the Gopis in Vrindavan the camera cuts back to the present and the camera focuses on Krishna, Balarama, and Subhadra. Their faces and body still and perfect, tears streaming down their eyes in divine ecstasy.

It would allude to Lord Jagannath, Lord Baladeva, and Subhadra Devi.

A soft background music would play with Jagannatha Swami, Nayana Pata Gami, Nayana Pata Gami, Bhava Tume. Jai Jagannath, Jai Jagannath, Jai Jagannath Swami Jai Jagannath. Jai Baladeva, Jai Subhadra! Jai Baladeva, Jai Subhadra! Jagannatha Swami, Nayana Pata Gami, Nayana Pata Gami, Bhava Tume

That would have been beautiful.
