So finally the much awaited entry of Roxana/Roxanne/Rukhsana happened❤️
I must say I am damn impressed with her👏👏She was fiery and sensible at the same time.
I loved how she called Darius Bhagoda on his face 🤣She is really Alexander's soulmate since both address Darius as Bhagoda.

She was spot on correct when she said that had Darius been fighting for their independence then the entire Bactria would have stood up with him.But why on earth should any citizen of Bactria give up their life for a lowlife like Darius??👏

Aurton ki izzat karna seekhiye👏This girl has spirit.

But Roxy why did you call Alexxy a vaishy person?Anyway yeh misunderstanding bhi bahut jald door hojayegi😳

And Roxy killed Moses.Another parallel with Alexander here.Alex killed Faroos (Darius'Chamcha No 2) and Roxy killed Moses (Chamcha No 1)😉

Dayumm I can't wait for their first meeting.Sparks are bound to fly

Both Puru and Alex are really lucky to have such strong ladies as their partners❤️

My heart went out for AnuBamni😭Shivdutt was so cruel yet I must say the actor did a great job expressing Shivdutt's conflicted and twisted feelings.
Rati was powerful as Anusuya when she gave it back to Shivdutt👏👏

Now Puru,it's your turn.Just reach PR ASAP and destroy Shivdutt and Kanishk 😡

Overall it was a really good episode after a long time.

P.S.I really don't think that the show is ending guys.They gave the new promo in order to promote the changed timings.And what better way to promote it than PorAnder?😆


Edited Part : I totally forgot to add this here.Can I say how much I loved Alexander's dialogues today??👏👏They were beautifully written.

Porus 133: Enter a firebrand!

Attagirl,Ayesha! 👏You rock just as much as Rukhsana (I like that name better than Roxanne, the Greek or Macedonian version ). A sassy, happy, bouncy post. It made me feel good just to read it.

Rukhsana is not precisely beautiful, but she has a very strong, mobile face, and she has that other intangible, very special attribute: personality. Presence. It cannot be acquired, it is there or it is not there.

She has presence in spades, as she socks it to the rat Darius and sends his chamcha No.1 to meet his Maker. And proposes, to Darius' face, that he should be handed over to Alexander as a peace offering. Some girl, this! 👏I have never seen a leading lady quite like this one.

No wonder not just her father Oxyartes, but his Shah, Bessus, both let her say whatever she likes without rebuking her, no matter how blunt her words are. She must have had both of them under her thumb ever since she began talking!😉

Hers is an easy, self assured arrogance, coupled with a laser like focus on the interests of her own people that should be a perfect match for Alexander. When she goes to meet him, her voice is just as steady and composed as if she was talking to her father. No wonder he is intrigued.

When she removes that naqab, he is going to be blitzed! And inlieu, his hair seems (though it was dark and visibility was low) considerably improved!😉

Ayesha, I too loved the lines they have written for the exchange between Alexander and his mother. A very pleasant change from the fire and brimstone fulminations against Barsine the day before. Talking of Barsine, can there be a greater contrast than the one between her and Rukhsana?

I think that Darius will now run away from Bactria to avoid being traded off to Alexander. He will go back to Syria, and the final fight between him and Alexander will be at Gaugamela. Surely they cannot have that encounter here, in Bactria instead? They have so far shown all of Alexander's major battles accurately, so why not this one too?

As for the prison segment, it was ugly and horrible, just like Shivdutt. There was no need for all the Mahabharata style dragging by the hair and the physical humiliation of Anusuya.

But I loved it when, right at the end, she swore that she would kill him with her own hands. The parallel with Draupadi was marked.

The scene where Puru feels the agony of his mother telepathically was also very well done: he is wracked by emotional, and almost physical suffering without knowing why.

PS: For the show to run its full, pre-announced course of 260 episodes, the CVs will have to find a lot more material. As I showed on Priya's thread, they will end up about 70 episodes short, seeing what is left to show.

Just watched the episode and loved it! Roxanne was dhamakedar. 👏I loved her! They chose the perfect person to potray Alexander's love interest. Strong and beautiful as a person, and a strategic thinker like Alexander. I loved the scene where she explained how to cool down a fire with an example - Alexander has also done this sort of thing many times.

She must have some sort of fighting skills too that Alexander is bound to be impressed by at some point. I hope he and we get to see her in action.

I guess the CVs are building up the soulmate connection so that it will be easy for us to accept her as his other half when the time comes - they are a great match! Now all that remains to be seen is if it's love at first sight for him or he starts to fall for her over time. So many possibilities! Despite our recent frustration, I must say Roxanne's entry was worth the wait. Thank you CVs!

I don't think Roxanne will fall for him at first sight though. She's out to save her country by using her intelligence and understanding of human psychology again, just like Alexander and that's her primary focus. Somehow he'll have to win her over by getting past the bad impression she already has of him. Another instance of how his name and fame are going to work against him (at least at the beginning).
I just hope we won't have to endure "Roxanne ne Alexander ko bhediye se insaan bana diya".

Precap: OMG, why does Alexander want to see her face? Is it out of curiosity because he can't see past her veil or is it because he's suspicious of people/women after what Barsine did? Or maybe he's intrigued that they'd send a woman to deliver a message considering how precarious Bactria's situation is, and the fact that, according to the makers, Alexander has never signed peace treaties yet during his conquest. Maybe this is what Roxana will show him, that it's not always necessary to conquer through battle, peaceful means could also be a great alternative.

Curious enough, we're seeing Olympias more insecure and it will contrast with Roxana's bold avatar. I love the fact that in the same episode we got to see both Puru and Alexander's strong connections to their mothers, that they could feel their pain and emotions without any words being spoken directly.

@LawlessLawyer, Alexander's dialogues especially when talking to Olympias about taqdeer vs tadbeer were definitely beautiful, and mirrored the beautiful things what he told her in Macedonia when she tried to stop him going to Bharat in episode 98:

People invented the idea of fate, but everything happens according to planning and efforts. A person's hard word decides his destiny, not the lines on his hand.

People have the ability to influence their future by their effort and determination and not because of fate, that people use fate as an excuse for their failures instead of taking responsibility for it.

He also told her back then that if people knew about their future beforehand then there would not have been difficulties or efforts, or failures or tragedies, that destiny is a tool to scare people.

He doesn't want his mother to be scared and for her to experience this storm of emotions in the name of fate. No matter how determined he is to be victorious, he is still sensitive to his mother's emotional state and her fear of losing him. This is what makes him Alexander and why I love him (real and Sony version)!!

I recommend you go back and watch that scene from that episode again and then rewatch today's one. The CVs have created a beautiful link.

Yes, there will definitely be fireworks and I'm sure we're going to love their interaction. I've also started wondering if they deliberately showed Barsine as a mouse to contrast better with Roxana's personality and show viewers how differently they impact Alexander.

I can't wait for tomorrow's episode!!

Glad to have you back Aunty. Hope things went well at the doctor's. I just saw your post after I added mine and it looks like we're both on the same page about a lot of things. 😃

Yes, my dear, we are usually on the same page, are we not? For we think alike about most things.

However here, your take is significantly better than mine. Mine is impressionistic, but yours is much more substantive, with links to Alexander's earlier arguments with his mother. Of course what he is saying is not 100% correct. If man could mould his destiny by effort alone, there would not be so many tragedies and unfulfilled dreams in the world. But he was raised to think that nothing is beyond him, and in fact almost nothing was beyond him!

I would have written more about the Alexander -Olympias exchange, and fleshed the post out a bit too, but my hands hurt a lot tonight. It is sweet of you to be concerned about me. I hope things will improve in a few days, but the truth is that I have had zero self discipline and have been overdoing things badly with endless posting. At my age too! It is ridiculous!

Still, I just had to do this post! Things are really looking up for us, are they not, kid?

I shall go to bed now. Good night!
