Kaurwaki was Tishyarakshita

Okay before getting all angry , I tell you i am just quoting what is written in a book which i read ...

"It has been suggested that karuwaki was in fact the real name of the queen Tissarakkha and that she assumed the latter name on becoming chief queen."

I know wiki scholars who have never even read a single book of history are gonna get angry this is just a quote of a book and not some weird stuff of my imagination.

SOURCE- INDIAN HISTORY BY KRISHNA REDDY.

GOOD DAY.😊

My opinion- I don't support this theory. 🥱

Hope the new girl is not karuwaki. I want asoka to fall for asandhi first. She was his beloved yaar. ahnkhoo u must be asandhi otherwise die. 😡

I can imagine CAS Ashok taking the same route as StarArjun. Marrying his lady love first (probably Ahankara) and then marrying the rest because he either had to save them, political reasons, etc, just not because of love. 😆😆

I like ur profile pic Shyam...

Coming to the topic... I dont think Kaurwaki was Tishya..

Also I don want Ahankara to be Ashok 's fictional wife..

If he marries her I want him to marry her as Asandhimitra nt Ahankara..

CVs hv already done a lot of distortions... atlst dis one wont be painful...

Yeah Ileana D'Cruz ❤️❤️ 😆😆 Though I'm curious, which one - the animated one or the non-animated one.

Alas, we must hold hope while they play us. Maybe they will introduce a name change with the time leap.

I lol'd so hard when I found her WIkipedia article:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asandhimitra

Apparently either the editor made a huge mistake and is confusing Asandhimitra with Devi, or he thinks Asandhi = Devi 😆😆

Also found a short biography excerpt on Ashok

https://books.google.com/books?id=chiIAwAAQBAJ&pg=PP4#v=onepage&q&f=false

Few things that stuck out (of course one author doesn't prove anything), but apparently young Ashok loved hunting and games and didn't pay too much attention to administration, despite Queen Subhadrangi wanting him to focus on administration. The author also writes that Ashok had the view that Sushim, being the eldest, should ascend the throne. Also, he didn't want to kill Sushim. He had a lot of remorse

Shyam... if u check pg 5 of historical discussion thread..u can find this same article... so I meant to say I can guess its written by Meself aka Shivani who had researched on Devi.. and its a "she". She had even mentioned in the thread her teacher 's name was Sanghamitra Roy... which I found really awesome... She said her teacher had researched a lot on Ashoka and she had referred to her research papers. Also she told me that the translations of Pali scriptures that she read identified Asandhimitra and Devi was same. The author being from Patna is also in touch with all the folklores of that place. One of my other friend also cited many points which indicated them being same. I don't intend to bore u wid a lecture bt I find such contrasting points in history really interesting... Let's see how CAS CVs play with all the stories they have...

Though I won't mind if they merge Devi and Asandhimitra into Ahankara...

Sidd and Tunisha have a great chemistry..

Oh that is really interesting. I always thought that Asandhi and Devi were two separate characters. Anyway, the topic sounds interesting so I've started reading upon it.
