At the age of 10 Chandragupt Maurya was lean & fit, tall for his age (was
taller than all the other boys of his age). He had sparkling eyes, fair
complexion & sharp features. He had a rebellious nature and had a winner's
attitude. He was extremely loyal to his friends, possessed this sense of
fairness & rationality. Was a born leader, very brave & alert by
nature. Had affinity towards animals and could easily control them. He was
extremely instinctive and impulsive about people. He would never hesitate to
speak his mind and had this raw & rustic quality about him. At 17yrs he had
a muscular physique, intense eyes & was agile in his movements. He had a
warrior's attitude. Macho. Kingly. Witty. Charming. Intelligent… fought with
his mind before fighting with his body.

A Brilliant scholar who became a teacher in his alma mater Takshshila
University at a young age. He had a rebellious nature and had a winner's
attitude. He was a visionary & had a vision on united Bharat. His
intentions and dreams were unselfish, but being blessed with a shrewd mind,
when faced with obstacles he would use methods that may be termed unethical.
For him the ends justified the means. Also, with his wit, he was able to
overpower most obstacles. He himself lived a very austere life.He was fair with
a lean body of a yogi and Brahminnical features. With a very powerful & a
magnetic voice he was a great speaker. He had a sardonic sense of humor &
an aura that attracted people towards him.He always walked fast like Mahatma
Gandhi. As a teacher, he was highly inspiring was unconventional in his teaching
methods. And would rather teach through experience than by words. He maintained
his distance from the students yet was accessible when they needed guidance.
Dhananand: Age 40 years & was the
king of Magadh
Resided in Magadh
Played by : Sooraj Thappar.
Dhananand was tall & dark with unusual features that stopped him from being
good-looking. He had a big ugly birthmark on his face that he hated.
Consequently, he was a fussy dresser and even puts some make-up like kohl in
his eyes and a red stain on his lips. He had a regal grace and a slight hint of
feminity in his carriage. He loved fine arts, and had contempt for all things
scholarly. He was arrogant and self-indulgent & always slightly intoxicated
at all times. There was an air of decadent around him at all times. Most of
all, he was extremely cruel loved sycophants and hated anyone who questioned
him.
