Really they need to stop showing those gory and brutal scenes now
Okay!! You wanna prove a point?? We got it.Alexander was aruthless guy,kroor,magroor,blah,blah,blah.But what's the need to show this again and again?
The CVs wanna show Puru as the sole hero?? Okay we got it.Puru is the hero and no one is denying it.But you don't need to blackwash Alexander to prove it.What was the necessity to depict the scene of him killing the baby in such detail?For all they could have just got some random soldier informing Alex that Cleopatra's child is dead.
Despite all his ruthlessness,Alexander was not evil.He had a loving and caring side.He loved Olympias,Hephastion and Roxana.He respected Darius's family and took care of Barsine/Stateira's education before making her his wife.
And in case the CVs are forgetting this then it's the same Alexander who asked Porus how he would like to be treated and after getting Porus' answer he not only befriended him but also allowed him to retain his territories.
This is a story which every kid knows and through this story they know Porus.
Don't the CVs realise that by showing Alexander as a multifaceted character and giving him ample screenspace they would be gaining the audience and simultaneously the ratings?
For all purposes Alexander was promoted as the parallel lead of the show along with Puru.They even share a montage together.So the audience who watch the show for Alexander are not gonna like it.
Also brutal and gory scenes like killing a baby are not appreciated by the TRP audience especially if this is a prime time show.So that's another reason why it was an unwise move.
