I really liked alexender's interaction with Darius's family, he was humble with them , 3 ladies were speechless 2 see his humbleness. Barsin was fumbling when alexander asked her name.

Yes, this is a very famous scene, described by innumerable historians. Only, it was Sisygambis who took the lead, and pleaded for their lives to be spared.

It is not said in any of these accounts that Alexander used the presence of the Persian royal ladies to win over the Persian populace, though it would have been a very astute move.He is just praised for his chivalry and compassion towards the ladies.

Here, the CVs seem to be deliberately downgrading this gesture by interpreting it as political manipulation, with Puru providing a running commentary like Harsha Bhogle, just in case someone missed the point.😡

As in real life history and also in this show Alexander is portrayed as cruel so one can accept this face that a person who wants to win whole world and can go to any extent also is a cruel person,that person very humbly talked to three ladies respected them.there we see another side of alex
