Hello People!!!

i think all of youll will agree that DKDM off late has picked up its (running) shoes and has started to run😆

but never the less-accha hi hai,we dont have to see crappy brainless tracks and get to see good enlighetning ones instead!😃

and by the looks of it-after the Ganga track,the next track underway is of Indra slaying Vritrasur(well finally he is doing something🤢) with the help of Lord Vishnu

and with that Dadhichis greatest Sacrifice 😭

i actually felt tears tingling in my eyes...

which is pretty strange-although all of us knew that we would see this day sometime or the other-im still feeling Sad

Dadhichi is one of the best characters in the show...

ill miss him😭

Dadhichi is in this show since 1st day, he has to give up his life for Devatas, it's bad. Why some one has to always sacrifice to protect interests or save these Devatas. Why aren't they becoming strong enough to save themselves?

A part of me wishes that Dadhichi hadn't been built into such a major prominent role, particularly given that I've not read about him doing so many things. The only thing I know about him is his sacrificing his life so that Indra could make the vajra.

The side story - once when Indra refused the Ashwini twins some knowledge that they wanted to gain, they approached Dadhichi. Dadhichi told them that he had been told that if he revealed that particular information to anybody, his head would explode into smithereens. To solve that problem, the Ashwini twins substituted his head w/ that of a horse, and learnt whatever was needed from him. At the end of it all, the horse head exploded, and the twins restored Dadhichi's original head. For saving him, he gave them a promise that they could redeem anytime they liked.

Later, when Indra killed Trishiras, the son of Twastha, for conducting yagnas for the success of both devas and asuras (despite being Brihaspati's replacement as the guru of the devas), Twastha invoked Vritra from an yagna - in fact, that is how Vritrasura was created. Vritra initially played havoc w/ the devas, and Brahma revealed to Indra that only a weapon made up of the skeleton of Dadhichi - whose tapasya matched that of Twastha - could kill him. Indra then asked the Ashwinis to make that request of Dadhichi.

When requested, Dadhichi happily sat in a samadhi stance and his soul passed away, leaving his lifeless body. From his skeletal remains, Vishwakarma made the Vajra, which became the main weapon of Indra.

On the rare occasions that Dadhichi is remembered, he is remembered as one who gave up his life to save the devaas.

@meenaxi-sometimes the devtas remind me of modern day politicians who do absolutely nothing-i guess it proves to us that plain power isnt enough to be great-a knowledgeable person is much much greater than the powerful ones...maybe thats why our Rishis and Munis are greater than some of the Gods as well-because of the sacrifices they gave and thier contribution to society...its Dadhichi who is remembered for his contribution in Vritras slaying rather than Indra-i guess that proves enough!

Very true Shruti, they get a powerful position due to their good deeds & then expect others to sacrifice for them to remain in power. That's why after God & Guru is considered always higher, infact Guru is given higher position then God. These rishis achieve everything through their tough penance. many kings have big rishis as their advisors, may be they were following Shukracharya & Asura's example.

Dadhichi should be in the show for some more time. He will be there for Shivji-Parvati's wedding.

It seems the creatives have forgotten that they've already shown why Dadhichi's bones were special way back during Sati's time: Shiva blessed him and gave him a boon that his bones would be as strong as vajra. So the other story about him hiding the devas' weapons inside him is redundant now.

Regardless, I have to say I'm going to miss him once he's gone. We might joke about him being everywhere on this show but at the end of the day, I think the actor and the creatives have done a pretty good job of portraying the character. His absence will make a big difference IMO. 😒
