Shiv Shakti - Tap Tyaag Taandav

Everything is perfect. The actor who plays mahadev, hiw dialogue delivery is a 10/10. Only the music is a little annoying. Actors who play shiv and Shakti are perfect for the role but others are not so good for example vishnu, you cant even feel if he is present there or not. Looks like an ordinary person sourabh raj jain did a really good job in playing vishnu in devo ke dev mahadev.

Comparatively to devo ke dev mahadev the actors do not fit into the characters without any fault of their own. Its just a matter of casting. Prajapati daksh doesn't look like a brahmin like the actor in dkdm did.

Totally annoying Serial. The Serial adaption is from Shiv puran but instead sticking to puran they are putting annoying so called Drama shown in Indian serials. Annoying Background Music Devo ke Dev Mahadev has set a benchmark the actor playing Shiv role in this serial does not suit in Mahadev and also the acting skills of prajapati Daksh & lord Narayan is too lame. Also Lord Narayan is shown like a normal God just like Indra, vayu, agni or any other god. Narayan lives in Shirsagar but in this serial he is living in Garden also showing Mahadev in anger Devo ke Dev Mahadev was Best. We want pure devotion not VFX like Adipurush.

Ram, Subha, Srikanth are excellent choices. Ram is perfect as Lord Shiva, Subha makes a stunning Parvati and Srikanth is Lord Vishnu personified.

The actors who play Narad and Indra Dev are good but aren't given enough screen time. Too much unnecessary drama. The storyline is very loosely based on Shiv Puran. More fantasy than fact.

Kartikey is a very popular God but is being portrayed as a brat. There were 6 Krittika ladies not 7 and they weren't wives of the Sapta Rishis. Gross inaccuracies.

The script writing needs tremendous editing. Some of the scenes are dragged out ad nauseam . Do better. Ram and Subha are doing a great job but they need substantial material to work with. Same goes for Srikanth.

My thoughts on Shiv Shakti vs DKDM:

Shiv Shakti is becoming really annoying, and the way they are stretching the final reunion of Shiv and Parvati is beyond frustrating. Currently it looks like a love triangle movie with Parvati trying to force Shiv to marry Ganga instead of her. Beyond ridiculous.

In Devon Ke Dev Mahadev I suppose there was also some fiction involved, but mostly it adhered to facts, didn't it? This one (Shiv Shakti) started out nice, but now I'm so bored with the storyline. They even made Mainavati into a female version of Daksh. And several other parts in this series don't match what I've seen in DKDM.

As for the actors, I like how this actor, Ram, portrays Shiva, and he is definitely a better dancer than Mohit, but I liked Mohit Raina better in that role, and that goes for the rest of the cast of DKDM as well; all of them fit their roles better than the cast of this series. I hope this one will get better, but at this point I'm wondering why I'm even wasting my time watching it. It's nothing more than a cheesy love story.

Oh, and I'm also getting fed up with the soundtracks. I loved the theme song of Shiv Shakti at first, but when they started using it over and over again, using other words and the Mahamrityunjaya mantra on the same tune, I had enough of it. It sounded awful. Whereas the soundtrack for DKDM is still so iconic.

I am not liking the dialogues the way it is shown, it's not giving the mythological show vibe the way it should. Shows like this should give you goosebumps but hardly it gives any powerful vibes. I liked at the beginning it was good but from the time Kartikeya is shown it's not justified, I mean his dialogues are just too harsh for his age and doesn't have respect for anyone besides his so called 7 Kritika matas. Even it didn't bother to show the Brahmacharini avatar, Chandraghante avatar, Skandmata avatar till now. And it is known that there are 6 Kritika mata who bought up Kartikeya and the show made it 7. Anyways the dialogues and script writer of Kartikeya needs to gear up to show Kartikeya as more refined and well bought up boy rather than a Brat who doesn't even respect Parvati as someone who is much elder to his age. Overall the show needs improvement in script writing as well as showing more better emotions.
