tremble humans,

cower, 

you are not permitted to watch

for such it was

Meta : Kattappa’s entry into Kuntala

Summertime challenge @teambaahubali

WEEK 1- Parchay

Kattappa, the general of the armies of Mahishmati rarely unwinds. He doesn’t get vacations. (does he?) He rarely ever gets a minute to breathe and enjoy his surroundings. He is always at the beck and call of the Royal Family. He is always, ALWAYS, standing guard. 

Then he gets to go with Amarendra to roam before the coronation. It’s not a casual vacay. For all their casual banter and camaraderie, both know that it is a mentoring session for the crown prince. It is also bodyguard duty for the general. 

What happens then? When they reach Kuntala, it’s like a whole new world. 

They see a land full of green farms, colourful flower laden hills, animals, and waterfalls. It is a complete new experience, and Baahu is in love. He needs his uncle, not his general 

Their relationship changes.

He becomes the Uncle that he was always called, but never really had an opportunity to play. The ease with which they slide into their roles show that either its not their first time roleplaying, or they had time enough to make some sort of a plan. And Kattappa plays his inner Auntie to finesse.

The most important aspect of Kattappa’s entry into Kuntala is the irreverence he shows towards everyone.

hitting Baahu whenever he gets a chance

flattery of Kumaravarma

the hunched walk that is not fooling anyone

and even asking the Crown Princess for a lullaby

 Kuntala has a more casual attitude when compared to Mahishmati, but even they must draw the line at “ Panniveerar Kumaravarman!”

Here, at Kuntala, he lavishly speaks his mind, something he has never done in Mahishmati. And his inner Auntie approves...!

Only wish, he kept that attitude, but in a little circumspect manner when he got back to Mahishmati. Could that have changed the fate of the kingdom and its royal family?
