Great discussion. Absolute delight to read the comments. Will respond in details asap. Just dropped in to make a short reply.
First,
Great to find you here Maddy. Long Long time. Almost 2 years. I knew, for sure, you would be here anytime. Good to see you as well as Diksha. :)
It has been 2 years?! I remember our JA days, frenetic consumed by JA days and nights! Remember our 12-1 am discussions? I remember Radhika and I used to exchange crazy PMs starting after 12 am! Writing pages and pages on JA. Big part of wonderful JA experience was of course the wonderful writers, your threads and my psunami of questions as you called once πIn fact, making this reply after reading your comments about the aversion to kids love story. ROFL.
You are lucky you did not watch how CAS got butchered after the love saga. One min Ashoka is vowing revenge on Chankya's killers & promising to fulfill his dream of Akhand Bharat and next epi running after KVK π‘π€’ I mean literally running after her π‘
Young Mastani is not going to enter, Maddy. That is an old article of November. At best, rumor. Even the child Kashibai had not started regular shoots till early last week, even though she was introduced in the press launch. For more details, you can watch the press launch video on Peshwa Bajirao's FB page where the makers have gone at length while explaining when they will introduce love story.
You can also read the article which appeared in the Indian Express last week. Just searched on Google and found it.
http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/television/sonys-peshwa-bajirao-will-go-beyond-love-story-of-bajirao-mastani-say-makers-4481916/It says - ' The brief given to us was
a biopic so, like a biopic, the show will cover all aspects of Bajirao's life " the war and his personal life. We will show the "
so-called love story" of Bajirao Mastani but it will be just a part of the bigger story that we have. The
show is not a love saga. It is about all the aspects of Bajirao's life, of which the love story is one small part. We will treat it like that. '
And again,
just now the creatives of the show also confirmed that they are going to show all aspects of Bajirao's life of which Mastani was an important but a small part.
In their words - "Mastani was only a small part of Bajirao's life, albeit important.
His achievements were unparalleled and we will show all aspects."
Bottomline.
Mastani is not coming anytime soon. For Mastani to come, we need Raja Chatrasal Bundela too, and there is no news about his casting yet. Lot of people will withdraw if they turn this into a love story.
Thanks for sharing this information. I so want this to remain about Bajirao only. He was so much much more than half part of Bajirao-Mastani - hope we get to see him like you have described in the thread here. It was wonderful reading about his bravery, his political acumen, his wars and strategies and so much more.
