When Helena first got to know she would be traded off like a property 😢 and her beloved papa would surrender her to save his and his son's life 💔

Nandini never gets justice in popular media. Almost always she is merged with Durdhara 😒 and when she is not she is shown as going against her own father, she didn't go against him, she just chose Chandragupta as she fell for him. Thats it and she chose him as a Swayamvar which Nanda approved as defeated King. 😒💔 Nandini's real life was full of pain and her only joy was her pure love for her husband which didn't waver even when he became indifferent to her. Well it's not written anywhere but hope is that they reconciled and Mahadevi truly become a happy Mahadevi. Oh well 🙄

Thank you so much for the update

Three royal ladies were partying and watching Ashock's family with their DSLR eyes

I bet Helena want to see who's gonna give her par pota

they are so clueless Mann...king is kidnapped is a bigger issue and rescued by bahu is the biggest issue

Now Devi ka jealous hona Banta hai Boss. She saved a Nirbashit Rajkumar but Karu saved the kinggggg

The kidnapping happened right under their nose but they were more interested in finding out Devi setting fire

Helena's motive of going after Devi is so hilarious. She acts like a gareeb woman

I loved how Devi gave a reality check to Ashock. He had no words to say other than saying this marriage was not based on love . I liked her fearless nature.

Exactly and scholars opine he was with Devi to expand his family as he would probably have died like most princes did, after being the king Devi didn't follow him for the reasons unknown, only assumptions, but it's good she was far from him, she was atleast in peace

Also, wasn't Helena supposed to go back to Greece after her husband Chandragupta took sanyas in jainism?

Back in those days kings did not have to worry about cheating and all. Pura harem thi yeh log ke pass. They had fun with them leisurely

But why in India can't you guys also produce it like Turkish shows, showing harems and all that? Is it because of the colonizers which made you fear polygamy or the people who would rebel?

I have repeated that multiple times she was NOT from Greece. Her home was Babylon. 😂 And there was a rule in Mauryan Empire that no queen could go back to her home. She would either live with her son or on mercy of succeeding emperor. It's not known where she lived but wherever she lived she certainly didn't go back to her home, her family abandoned her 😢 because she was a shameful trade for them even when due to poor girl her father's life was saved 😡 Seleucus loved his ego more than his daughters except Antiochus and Apama.

She lived with Bindusara. Her half sister and daughter of Seleucus and Stratonice named Phila was queen of Macedon. So a daughter of Seleucus did go to Greece but she was Phila not Helena.

Helena's only joy after Chandragupta were her children 😢 she loved her husband very much and his death broke her
