“Mahatma Gandhi too was insulted and thrown out of the train in Africa and realised that this is not a personal issue but a big concern for India and its people. This brings a big transformation in his life,” Khanna says who draws similarities between Chanakya and Mahatma Gandhi. That thought made Chanakya bet on this boy and convinces Chandragupta to be his mentor. He thought that a person who loves his mother so much will ultimately come to love his motherland as well. One thing which Chanakya found endearing was that Chandragupta loved his mother but never said it openly. He and his gang of friends were petty thieves. “When Chanakya met Chandragupta, he found him to be a carefree child. But how do these two people with such contrasting nature join hands? Chanakya, on the other hand, was a wise strategist with a vision of a united India.
I will be riding a horse, doing masti with friends and create light moments which is very contrary to playing Shani Dev in the serial.”Ĭhandragupta Maurya was a reluctant student who had no feelings for his motherland and harboured only one goal - to earn his freedom from the hunter who he was sold to as a child.

The culture, religion and language of India will be lost. Once Seleucus will capture Magadh, the Greek Army will take over and impose their culture on us. “Chanakya realised that Dhananand has joined hands with Seleucus and is not able to see the future. Before leaving, Chanakya tells Dhananand that from this speck of dust he will create a mighty king who will take the vision forward. After the assassination of Porus by Seleucus, Chanakya takes his thought forward and goes to Dhananand, the king of Magadh, who insults him and considers everyone like dirt. Porus succeeds in convincing Alexander to leave India who leaves his general Seleucus Nicator behind. The show Porus highlighted the king’s journey and how he and Chanakya worked towards the vision of a united India and prevent outsiders to invade India.
