Why hasn't Astika taken over or usurped the throne??

Ya ur right, but it is just a concept of the show that he is shown blind follower of takshak when according to myth he was the one who save takshak but there insnt any facts that he was severing takshak. or not 😕 and even vasuki is king of snakes but in this show his potrayal is weak.😕😕

I was wondering the same. For Takshak he can kill his wife and harm his son. Why ?

Also why he keeps saying I am not the old Astika anymore ? What does it mean ? He was kind before ?

We don't know what the old Astika was but yes it seems that he was a noble and kind warrior as referred by Vasuki who keeps pointing that his blind loyalty to Takshak is what has corrupted him. However we don't know the reason for his loyalty towards Takshak. Why would a mighty warrior like him now to a lowlife like Takshak?
