MY LATEST PLOT PREDICTION FOR TONIGHT!
Every time I essay a plot prediction, I end up flat on my face. But let me risk it one more time!😉
What if Barsine, to get out of the tight corner in which she finds herself when Alexander enters her room just when Puru has landed up there, has the bright idea of introducing Puru and Laachi as friends from her days in Bharat?
That would instantly defuse the tense situation, especially as Laachi is also there and so Puru cannot be seen as visiting Barsine alone.
Alexander, delighted to find a true blue Bharatiya, would take Puru with him back to the jashn, and would pepper him with questions about Bharat.
What would happen thereafter could be what I had written in my last post but two, The Mystery of the Missing Mother:
What is most likely going to happen is, I think, that Darius having run away without answering any of Alexander's questions about Bharat😆 , Alexander will now substitute him with Puru, who would have met him as a sadharan Bharatiya. They will have extended interactions, like those that Alexander had later with Porus after the battle of the Hydaspes, and in the process, Puru will learn a lot about Alexander and Alexander about India.
Let us see if I luck out this time!
