The Maurya King Ashoka traveled to avoid the carnage among his brothers. On the way, he met the beautiful Karelga princess Kavaki and became a husband and wife. Everything is as wonderful as a fairy tale. However, the two were unfortunately separated later. King Ashoka mistakenly believed that Kawaki was dead, and was distraught. In addition, his mother was killed by a killer ordered by his eldest brother Susima, so his temperament changed drastically. , Killing countless. Kavaki returned to Kalega to assist his younger brother Aya in governing the country. King Ashoka finally declared war on Kalega, and Kavaki led the people of Kalega, including women and children, to fight in blood. After the war, although Ashoka was victorious, when he saw the corpses everywhere, the angry eyes of his lover Kawaki, and Aya who died in his arms, Ashoka finally realized his brutality and bloody, and the Because of the suffering caused by others, he put down his butcher knife, became a Buddha on the spot, began his own journey of breaking love and violence-free, and became a truly great king.
The most distinctive and indispensable element in Indian movies is Indian singing and dancing. The movie "Ashoka" takes this element to the extreme. The several sections of singing and dancing in it are very exciting, the music is unrestrained, and the singing is charming. The dance is enthusiastic and appropriately rendered the whole plot. The occasional ridicule between the three soldiers also brought some humor to the film. The most exciting one was the Battle of Kalega, although there have been many epic movies in recent years, such as "Queen of Siam". , "King Arthur", etc., all have magnificent war scenes, but the Kalrega battle is even more touching. The soldiers fought decisively to defend their homeland to the death. The spirit of not being afraid of disasters and not succumbing to rape was shocking.
This movie changed some of my prejudices against India, and it also evoked the idea of going to India.
