Mohit Malik was excellent. It's a bit disappointing he had to leave, but Avinesh seems to have the right attitude. Portraying Shiva's calm and depth is not easy. Let's see if he can pull it off.

As someone interested in Hindu mythology, I find these shows fascinating. It's a great way to learn about the stories and values. Hope the production quality does justice to the epic subject matter.

Respectfully, I feel these mythological shows sometimes get too dramatic for TRPs. I hope this one focuses on the philosophy and teachings rather than just creating unnecessary family conflicts. The actor's intent seems pure, though.
