actually the Sidhidhatri avatar was mentioned once by Mahadev

and the story behind it mentioned during Satis time-of Mahadev being ardharaishwar with Shakti

i would like to see the story too

maybe in flashbacks

but my question is when they show Mahadev becomming Ardhanarishwar(this is before Sati and Parvati being born) who will they show as Adi Shakti?
