what's there in the name

Tara's literal meaning is a star. But Tara is also the name of a hindu goddess, an avatar of goddess Parvati wife of lord Shiva. The legend begins with the churning of the ocean between the Devas and Asuras. Lord Shiva drank the poison (Halahala) that was created from the churning of the ocean (in the process turning his throat blue and earning him the epithet Nilakantha), thus saving the world from destruction, but fell unconscious under its powerful effect. Then Tara Ma appeared and to save Lord Shiva.

Mrityunjay is another name for Lord Shiva. Mrityunjay means the one who has conquered death.

thank u for the post

i never thought that names can have such a dept meanings

I love mythology and the meaning behind names :')

They do this in many shows but they make it very obvious and they literally say it so many times in the show that you wish they would just stop drawing parallels!!!!!

However in this show it is very subtle!!!!!They did not use the more obvious ones like Rudra, Parvati, Gauri, etc!!!!!!

Plus it is something which they never mention in the show and the viewer has to find out for themselves!!!!!This is what makes it so special!!!!!

If you look at this not just their names but also their characters are based off it!!!!!

In the relationship MJ is the passive one while Tara is the more active one!!!!!MJ prefers to stay little detached and alone!!!!!!

Also like Parvati, Tara braves the sun, the rain, the fire and hunger to win her husband!!!!!!

Here also Tara has to save him since he is hell bent on drinking this poison!!!!!
