Well, seems like he's done too. I don't know for attention or not, he will know. A very big blunder indeed. If I hated him (Viaan) initially in Katha, I HATE him (Ashok) even more here as to the clip above. But more than hate, I feel pity for him having to do all these disgusting performances using the name of Samrat Ashoka! Like I said in some previous posts, Samrat Ashoka, his Queens and gang, they're waiting for Ekta in hell!!

Ekta should compensate them or recommend them to other producers. If they still want to experiment in a Historical or Mythological show, Swastik Production or Sagar Production is the way to go, else, modern hi sahi hai or a recent historical show set in the 20th century. But yup, Pracchi and Adnan as a pair, they definitely are under exploited!!! And please, get the guy a decent director!!

Mallika, what's up with her though? Heard she's not even friends with Sumedh and unfollowed each other?! The fan comments of some shorts said so. She seems like an introvert, nothing bad to it, but on-screen, it looks bad and forced.

Sagars are too moralistic, they always try to make their protagonist king as monogamous, the same they did with CGM by mixing Durdhara and Nand Nandini and now many dumbos think they were same woman and even fight with others who tell them true history. Swastik also sucks at making historicals. Their Porus and CGM were very bad. CGM was all about DhanaNanda and his pathetic nautanki, this loser was highlighted downgrading CGM just because saurabh played DhanaNanda. Swastik plays favouritism and are very biased. A new PH should join historical genre with utmost dedication for the project and it might turn about a true Magnum Opus. Wish someday it will happen but doesn't look like it will come anytime soon 😭

@bold: Really? Didn't know that about Swastik that they play favoritism and are biased.

@red: If those 2 failed, and the world has arrived this far without accurately portraying a historical event or personality, then I doubt it will ever happen in the future!!

Chakravartin Ashok Samrat was inspired from Ashok Banker's book so it was fictional from the start, makers never said they were making true history but this show, they are so shamelessly calling itihas. Gone are days when people were stupid enough to believe such nonsense. 😡 Are they checking intelligence of people? 😡

This is what happens when you choose gian hai aap Chapris to make a show 😂🤣 and actors got entangled because they don't have guts to say no to Ekta, even Siddharth did Chandra Nandini just to work with ekta 🤣

No way Siddharth was there first, then Adnan did the same mistake. Yeah, Ekta has the power to make or ruin someone's career! But hopefully no one is busy watching the .8 TRP!! And can't TRP fall like to 0.08?

Yup, Mallika is also friends with Kartikeya from his YouTube channel. They can choose to be friends and follow or not their co-stars, yup. Also, it seems like the fans were pressurizing them so much that they did just that, unfollow each other. I came to know of such a Turkish TV pair (Beren Saat and Engin Akyürek of Fatmagul) which unfollowed each other because some fans accused the other of breaking the actor's relationship or so. So, I think I get it.

Not those aunties and grandma's lol. If they did not do history or some research, they'd believe it all what's shown in A Shock!!

Looks like he is just going with the flow and doing scenes , that's what I felt with his "Just do it" ! Although I don't agree with his caption of not giving importance to your emotions and just doing it for the sake of it , that's what results in cringe that we are seeing on screen !! You can only do things to an extent without liking and after one point you just give up !!

Friendships in entertainment industry are mostly fake and very fragile !! Now a days most on screen couples (tv actors specially) do too much off screen drama showing they are thick of friends or off screen couple and show khatam hote hi unfollow kar dete hai and don't look back !!

I have also heard Adnan and Eisha were very close during ISA and most of them thought they will get married but last year they also unfollowed and sab kuch khatam Not sure what actually happened though !!

A serious question:

Why isn't Adnan or other cast members rebelling against the story??!!! I mean, Adnan said he wouldn't do intimate scenes or nude scenes, unless it's Christopher Nolan, then he would consider it. Idk what's happening here!! Torturing a woman, that too on International Women's Day, is way worse than intimate and nude scenes!! No matter how many comical scenes are included!!!

I don't think tv actors have much say in the script or story !! About intimate scenes, I thought he did quite a few in ISA with Eisha so not sure if he has changed mind later !!

Yup Swastik play favouritism, the show was on CGM but if you watch it they deliberately made Durdhara his sister not daughter (though in real history she was neither) just to not make the actor play father's role, the whole show revolved around Dhana Nanda and they cast a very poor actor both physically and acting wise so that Saurabh looks better. How awful.

Well we can only hope that someday someone will be sane enough to make a historically accurate series 😭

now every king and his wife has love hate relation ship 🙃

There may be hate but they couldn't be so blunt about it and mixing mirchi in his halwa was an invitation for death sentence. 😒 Kuch bhi dikhate hai. They showed Durdhara in Imagine's CGM as going against her father because she wanted to become wife of CGM. Kuch bhi. 😒 This all happened when Nanda was defeated and then Nand Nandini chose to marry Chandragupta because she found him hot and he was the new king. 🤣🤣A thing which CGM hated about her. CGM loved loyalty, loyalty was above love for him, that's why he made Durdhara his Agramahishi not Nand Nandini. He never trusted anyone of his wives except Durdhara no matter how much he was physically involved, loyalty and trust died with his precious Durdhara 😢 The only loyalty he then got was from his bodyguards 😭His next Agramahishi was only there for maintaining his harem. Nand Nandini was respected but wasn't loved. Like Ruqayyah. Helena we all know was young girl and was heavily infatuated with him.

Ashok chose his Agramahishi also very wisely, he made Asandhi his chief queen who was also his favourite but later did blunder by making Tisyarakshita, a dumb evil woman his favourite queen and Agramahishi.😒

I understand boys not attending the class . If the teacher was female it would have been different

Haan

Just think about my situation when my husband asked me if I was one of those girls who were behind the math teacher?
