Dear Surbhi,
It is sweet of you to want me to stay on. I remember that the last time I had wanted to quit, after my The death of Alexander post and then Puru's recovery and hijinks, you had stopped me citing the same reasons, that things would improve. I did stay on then, but things are worse now.
The CVs simply don't know what to do, and are flailing about. Unfortunately, the tracks they cook up are each worse than the other. They don't seem to understand that to deify Porus and demonize Alexander - which is very far gone by now - weakens the script and the show. And now you have Chanakya, not like an austere, commanding guru, but like Puru's assistant, or the ADC of a general.
OK, I am prepared to accept fiction, but even as fiction, the material is deteriorating rapidly.
Anyhow, let us not argue about this, or indeed about anything else. I have been in the hospital for a good part of today and I have to go back tomorrow. I am very tired. As for this show, I shall wait for next week and see how things are. If I do stay on, it won't be for the show, but only for the company of you youngsters.
One small point of advice, which I hope you will take in the spirit in which it is meant. Use paras, plenty of them, one for each idea or point. It will make matters much easier for your readers, myself in the first place!

i was talking about involving ladies and using their relations to make other people weak..not about planning and plotting thing...when chanakya gave dhoka to alexander, usne khud diya tha...kisi aurat ka use nahi kiya tha usmein...and moreover alexander did came to kill kanishk...aththi ki tarah woh kabhi aaya hi nahi tha...toh agar woh khud dhoke se maarne ki soach raha tha kanishk ko ..out of the battle ground...so why do he blames chanakya for doing the same...chanakya was also planning to kill him out of the battle field ...i never get the logic that how alex was right doing that while chanakya was wrong...because chanakya definitely isnt known for moral values...he always used to plan things which were needed for the moment...winning is what he always concentrated on...porus failed it on moral values ground and i was okay with it...so was chanakya after a while...okay coming back to today's point...see kidnapping olympia is seen as disgusting because she is a women...had chanakya kidnapped hapestian...toh shayad problem wouldnt have been as big as it now seems ...as it is the involvement of women...though for us all today men and women are equal...but sadly us time par toh exist karta hi tha...moreover its about attacking, about physical capabilities...girls are anyday stronger mentally...toh okay i do buy it...but alexander started using women first to make the other side weak ...so as chanakya said ki jaisa boage waisa hi kaatoge...alex had warned barsine that he will kill his mother if she didnt help him in kidnapping of chanakya..even barsine's mother was a mother only...now chanakya will try to do the same with him. Alexander had not really harmed barsine's mother, chanakya hasnt harmed olympia either till now. If alex can do it...so can chanakya...dono mahan log the na par dono ne kiya aisa show mein...so its null and void for me. If chankya or anybody harms olympia...that obviously will be wrong...except if the situation is olympia attacks and anusuya defends. Because that will be a women v/s women...no injustice to anyone in my eyes. Now coming to you leaving the show...diii this show is nothing related to history...watch it as complete fiction...i can understand you are upset with the way things are being projected on our tv screens as of now...but the show has so many times went down and came backkk...maybe things willl get okay till they reach the fight and will not get worse...kalll hi toh hum end dekhne ki baat kar rahe theee...aaappp pleaseee kahiii nahiii jaaa raheee. Sabbb theeek hooo jayegaaa diii...watch it as fictionnn...itna dil par mat looo...i know main bhi le leti hoon most of times...but aap hi toh kehte ho nahi lena chahiye...it just a show... we just cant afford to loose your precious views on episodes. Please give porus another chance...pleaseee.
