Thank you so much, my dear Charu. I would have replied earlier, except that I am being good and sticking to my laptop limits (after throwing them out of the window over the weekend!😉).
As for writing so much, you know me, my dear! I have only one way of doing my posts, to spread myself, and I would be hard put to edit them down. It would take even more time, and would ruin the prose and the flow. Still, I am perennially surprised that so many of us bear with me and actually like my stuff!
No, I do not think Mahakumbh will degenerate the way you fear it will. The charming thing is that Rudra discovers his powers one by one with a kind of bemused surprise, and then just accepts it and carries on, as when he recites the second verse that the jyotish has not yet taught him. Plus, the side characters are very strongly etched, especially Rudra's 2 guardians.
Then there are the cinematically shot scenes that are delightful: Rudra poised on top of the railway bridge, tensed and ready for the super-Olympic dive; the way the sticks fall to the ground like autumn leaves after he has tugged away the rope that binds them; the sudden emergence of 8 trishuls from under the water.

Fantastic post as always aunty. And that you could manage to write so much about a 4 episode old show says something about the benchmark that has been set.
I do hope the show does not become a ott tale of rurda's superheroic feats to help the needy.
