Hello everyone!!

After watching this week's epi, I'm still in a state of AWWW. So much happened in these 2 episodes. Am I watching an Indian show? Conspiracy, murder, blame game, truth came out, court trial, punishment and happy ending. Isn't it like a two hours movie?

Wow!! What these episodes are!! First kudos to makers and then to actors who has blown our minds with their mind blowing performances. Can we expect more ? I think yes, now we can expect more surprises from this team.

Now, come to the main point. Why is the punishment given for a crime? What is its need?

Punishment is given to a person who commits any crime to realise him what wrong has been done. It's a way to make him understand and see his mistakes. It is a way to convert a bad person into a good. That is only possible if the person, himself, repents and redeems and feel guilty for his wrong actions. Repentance and Redemption is most important for someone's realisation.

The whole court room trial is a way to see through different prospectives and ideologies. One side is Sindhu's view and ideology, which is self centered. He can't see beyond himself. He only wants his rights but never pays attention to his duties. He has an ideology that noone can be forgiven who is against him. He wants Mrinal to be hanged without understanding her situation, her revenge. He is ready to do anything for power, for fulfill his ambitions. He was easily manipulated and didn't think twice before killing his father. But is he really as bad as he seems or is he was forced by the situation to do what he has done?

The other side is Prithvi's prospective and ideology. He believes in peace, love, goodness. He is a person who always ready to give happiness to others. He believes in forgiveness. His ideology is to make his enemies to his friends through forgiveness and love. He respects others, their views, their situations. He believes giving multiple chances to others. Usski soch hai. . "Burai ko khatam kro bure log khud khatam ho jaayeinge."

It was not like that he had taken that decision in a moment. He had alot of time to think, to analyse the whole situation, to understand reason behind Sindhu's action, involvements of all factors which pushed him to kill his own father, for whom he was against Prithvi once, before making his decision.

First, When a person is punished, it is expected that he/she will be back as a new and good person. But does it happen all the time? Here, before punishment Sindhu realised his crime. He was repenting and Prithvi (acc to his character and ideology ) gave him a chance to redeem without banishing him from Malwa. If he was banished or hanged, it had been a benefit for him but now he had to face everyday the persons whom he had been betrayed. It would not be easy for him.

Second, by forgiving Sindhu, Prithvi has kept alive the hope for Singhdant's Forgiveness from Mrinal. Otherwise, how could he ask her for forgive his father if he could not do this.

Other question is if he could forgive any person other than Sindhu. Then, the answer is yes, he could because he is Prithvi. He may react immediately but when he has to make a decision as a king, he doesn't make it according to written rules but analyses everthing and gives decisions by his own. He is not a person of rules but of situations.

Maybe it was not a perfect decision or may be it will be. For that we have to wait for next episodes.

Neett I totally agree to what you said I too was bit surprised seeing what PV did in court room trial
But as entire scenario sank in I realized that what he did was apt ... Sindhu is a self centred person with an inferiority complex against his brother ... His weak mentality and complex made him manipulated by Mahakai and he did this blunder ... Prithvi is right burai ko khatam karo bure loog apne aap khatam ho jaayenge ... He even said that human nature is full of flaws ... Like his father failed as s father as he cannot judge Sindhu correctly even he failed as a brother to judge him ... So if now he punished Sindhu harshly his mindset could have been worsened so he took the right decision

It will surely change Mrinal concept of revenge seeing Prithvi forgiveness but Precap we saw was something more interesting

What Sindhu committed was not a blunder. It was one of
the vilest crimes imaginable: parricide, that too committed in cold blood.

Nor is it the sole objective of punishment to correct and reform the wrongdoer. As the word itself makes it clear, it is also meant to make the person pay for his/her crime.


Sindhu should have been sentenced to life imprisonment, seeing that Malwa doesn't have capital punishment.By trying to make Prithvi out to be a reincarnation of the Lord Buddha, the script has reduced a very serious matter to a farce.

For now, whenever any citizen of Malwa murders someone else, and then pleads for similar treatment claiming that he is deeply and truly. repentant, he will have to be forgiven, just as Sindhu was. The same would apply for all lesser crimes. The consequences can be readily imagined.

As for Mrinal's father, he was, so far as one could make out, killed in the heat of battle. Not when he was asleep in bed. Her mother committed suicide. The two cases are not comparable

I don't think this unbelievable decision by Prithvi is going to help with the TRPs either. Most viewers would be shocked and outraged by such leniency for such a terrible crime.

@Bold: Mrinal's family were not hurt in anu battle but attacked by deceit during Diwali. So Mrinal's father was killed. And Mrinal's mother did not committed suicide buy killed by Singhdant's soldiers.

Thank you for the corrections. That is why I had noted that it was as far as I could make out, but clearly my memory was at fault.

I still don't understand why there was a sneak attack by Singhdant. A king doesn't lead a sneak attack on a neighbouring country, but as far as I remember from Mrinal's flashbacks, he was actually there and killed her father himself. But I seem to remember something being said about her mother having committed suicide. Even if that was the case, the moral responsibility for her death would lie with Singhdant. If the Malwa soldiers killed her, the culpability is direct.

Anyhow, this affects only my last but one point, not the central issue that put me off badly.

I came to this show with very high expectations because of the leads. But the script is floundering, there is too much of Kosha, her mausi and Jakkala, and now the crown prince of Manyakhet has been revealed to be a revolting, murderous pervert. God help the viewers.

You should wait for more time. You may love the show😊. It's better than many other historical shows. Every character is grey bere except few. Yes Kosha was shown more but it's reduced much now. They can't show the leads all the time. Every characters are necessary to be shown. Now Afghan track is coming and then PriNal marriage track. And also Ankit Arora(the famous historical/mythological villain) is entering soon. Sab show me kuch na kuch galtiyan hoti hai. Par yaha galtiyan kam hai. As for Singhdant, he said to Mrinal when she attached him for the 1st time that 'mera paksh to sun lo Mrinal' which shows there may be more to what we saw which may be shown later. But even if Mrinal's father was at fault he should have killed just him not her mother and sisters. Also he should not have attached from back during a festival.

I agree with you that the impact of his decision will not do a greater good.. But what I feel is that they had to make Prithvi practice what he preached.. Had guessed they would show Prithvi forgiving Sindhu but didn't know that it would be this fast.. Prithvi was and is expecting Mrinal to forgive Singhdant .. If Prithvi does not do that and expect mrinal to forgive whose whole whole family was killed by his father, it would have become hypocritical of him.. So, demand of the story or whatever we may call it but it had to be happened.. Not that I think Mrinal will still be quite impressed but Prithvi stood by his principles.. I don't know but I feel Sindhu's end may also be near.. 😆Mrinal has vowed to kill him and wash her hands with Sindhu's blood... 😆

Sindhuraj does not deserve forgiveness in any angle. It is like feeding snake and expecting it not to bite. What rocky balboa says to his son in rocky 6, is perfectly applicable for sindhuraj. When things got tough for you in life, you started looking for some big shadow to point fingers and say you didnt get what you deserved because of him, her or anybody. Cowards do that.

yes.. Prithvi accepted his flaws wholeheartedly and this shows strength of his character. He realised what pusshed Sindhu to this extent.
Bold.. it will take time because Sindhu again put oil on her revenge fire and now she was in a dilemma not to get for what she was preparing herself for so long. She is feeling betrayed and insulted. Prithvi always easy target for anyone to blame and throw tantrums. 😆

Well, I am really glad that someone agrees fully with me!
Needless to say, I am with you 111% on this.

Apart from the principle of justice and the need to pay for one's crimes, I don't believe for a moment in Sindhu's sudden reformation. He knows Prithvi inside out, and he is playing him like a violin.
