good review , Harshu... yes, episode was good one, again..and as we all know Balaji will survive this time...afterall , Baji's 3 more siblings r yet to born...😉😆
just kidding...😉😛
anyway, Balaji was way too brave and the one to raise Baji to become a fearless warrior ...but just like Balaji, Radhabai too was equally responsible for the good values , and soft-heartedness in him...
Rau ...Bajirao was popularly called by this name, which means respectful person or a father figure, or a eldest brother who is in father's place..the warrior brahmin is born...will discuss more abt him as show will proceed...
anyway, now coming to my fav part...just the second episode , and the bloopers started...agreed, Tarabai is a queenmother..but she is a widow, that too in 17th century, and more specifically a Hindu Maratha widow, who lost the right to call herself a queen, the moment her husband / king died...and so according to that era, even though she is a queenmother, she is supposed to wear only white saree with minimum of jewellery, or to be specific , to wear the jewellery of pearls or a simple gold chain..and here our queenmother is decked like she is a new bride, with all colourful saries and so many ornaments, and all set to be declared as next Maharani...
sorry, if I sound rude...and I m certainly not proposing that widows should wear only white saree...but that was the custom in that era...and even Tarabai, never overruled that tradition...
so I think , we better don't keep much expectations for the show...coz just in 2nd episode such big blooper happens, then many will follow in the show...coz Tarabai's get up is very big thing for that era's culture and traditions...and frankly, I m surprised, how Pallavi, who herself is a marathi girl, and known to be perfectionist abt her roles, missed such big thing..
anyway, the interesting part will come in future, while Baji will have to face Tarabai, protecting Shahuji's right as a king...
and yes, Tarabai, will be a very much gray character , who is ready to do anything to keep powers in her hand...she was that ambitious, and never accepted Shahuji as rightful heir of the throne...and finally, the throne was split and power was divided...the original throne remained with Shahuji at satara , while parallel govt was formed at Kolhapur as a capital for Tarabai's son...that part will be very interesting...
and like we saw in today's episode, all those ppl , whom Tarabai, removed were loyal to Shahuji and stayed with him throughout their life...as far Shahuji, he was the most beloved king , just like his grandfather, thought he didn't need to fight many wars like Shivaji, coz Peshvas took care of it... but Shahuji was knows for his great sense of justice, and his passion to do everything for his subjects that will give them prosperity...he was a great visionary...
so let's see, what we get to see next...
