Thank you so much :-) I just finished watching the mahaepisode here in the UK, what a treat not to be able to wait a week!

I have a doubt - when they say simulataneous telecast - does that allow for the time difference - for eg will Navya still be telecast at 10 PM UK time or will we get to watch it at 5.30 PM UK time (ie 10 PM India time)? Sorry for the confusion...

I haven't watched maha episode on tv yet just quickly saw it on YouTube! Can't wait to see it on tv, It feels nice when watching it with English subs!! 😆...I think it will be still aired at 10pm uk time or else there will be too many confusions and a lot of changes in the schedule!! And star plus shows that navya is still at 10pm!! Hope I got rid of your doubt!! Lol
