These days when the name of Mahadev is coined, only one image flashes in everyone' mind, that is of Mohit Raina. This handsome man has impressed everyone with his performance in Life OK's Mahadev (Triangle Film Company).

One thing which has been really appreciated is his get-up and make-up as Shiva. But many are not aware of the fact that it takes Mohit a 45-minute long session in his green room to transform into his Mahadev avatar.

"I almost take more than an hour to become Mahadev. I don't have to do anything but just be on time on the sets. My make up team remains ready to pounce on me and begin the process of transformation," shared Mohit with Tellychakkar.com.

He further said, "Usually, it takes a lot of time to get the hairstyle right. Then it's time for the costume, followed by the final touch up. I have to patiently sit for almost 90 minutes at one place."

Well Mohit, all your hard work is paying off!!!

Life OK's show Mahadev has managed to strike the right chords with the masses. Its lead, Mohit Raina, has attained immense popularity, thanks to his superb acting prowess. Now, we wrote about Sati (Mouni Roy) dying in the show, marking the entry of Parvati. There was a lot of hype about the actor who would sign the dotted line to play the role of Parvati. Media reports suggested that Sonarika Bhadoria has been roped in by the makers (Triangle Film Company). So yes, Sonarika will be seen as Parvati. And that is not it…Ishita Vyas has been brought on board to essay Parvati's best friend, Jaya, and a new face Mamta Nagar would essay Vijaya.

Ishita has acted in movies and on television, was last seen in Zee TV's Jhansi Ki Rani as Jhalkari. In the show, Jaya will be the only friend of Parvati.

"Yes, she is a part of Mahadev. She is also doing a project with Akshay Kumar, titled Oh My God and another flick, Special Chabi," affirmed Ishita's Business Manager, Abhijeet.

Mamta Nagar remained unavailable for comment.

Parvati phase of Mahadev will commence from this week

The Immortal

I have grown in a very spiritual and religious environment. Followers of Sanatana Dharma, my family brought me up on a regular dose of spiritual discourse, poojas, mantras and kirtans. Although when I grew up I went further away from religion and embraced my own version of spirituality, I was left fascinated by one aspect of my childhood. Lord Shiva, to whom my family offers prayers.

I have been afraid of the divine as a child - this great entity with insurmountable power and energy, from whom light shines and radiates to all corners of the world. This great person who both gentle and fierce at the same time. This person whom I cannot see, touch, feel, encounter unless I am of divine soil myself. In short, this entity that surrounds me but is intangible.



As I grew up, and my own thoughts took over, the image of the 'divine' changed for me. Gods became people that once existed. Their energies are what set them apart - what make them divine. And all the Hindu deities have their special energies for which they are revered and famous.

Lord Shiva, to me, has remained the humblest, simplest and least assuming. He was powerful but vulnerable. He could create and destroy. He was supreme to all gods but lived among the dredges of society - he loved all the unwanted, rejected, ostracised 'vermin' that others spurned away. He protected the weak, sided with the underdog, and on several occasions, has been the underdog himself. He absorbed the poison of the world and maintained the balance of live and death. Yet, he does not come to the forefront.

And it is rare to find people like him among us now. My fascination with this divine existence remains.

Perhaps that's why I'm latched onto this new TV series called Devon ke Dev Mahadev. I'm not one for Hindi TV serials, what with the current melodrama that's been churning out over the years. But as of late, mythology has become a prominent theme across media - The Immortals of Meluha has a very interested take on the story of Lord Shiva. Even more interesting still, is the TV series DKDM. I didn't think anyone would do justice to this divine existence, but actor Mohit Raina seems to have done hardcore research and hours of method acting to get under the skin of his character, which under normal circumstances can prove to be quite a challenge. Under these circumstances, chances are negligible. But I'm overwhelmed by the depth of him.

Perhaps he is a very good actor. But I like to believe, that somewhere deep down, he has connected with this entity. And for all we know he may not be that religious or even believe in folklore of generations ago, but the intensity of his emotions indicate a deep spiritual connection with hisself. I don't mean he is god, or otherworldly. He is Mohit Raina. It just takes a lot of inner strength and calm to be able to portray such a strong and difficult character. And for that, I respect him. And he is supported by an equally dedicated cast and crew. The graphics are phenomenal, especially in the Indian telly scenario. The music is intense. I can see this show has been created with passion from every person part of it. And I'm a thriver on passion. I am an avid watcher of this series, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in a very refreshing and believable depiction of the life of Lord Shiva.

But, his anger soon comes down when he sees Parvati. However, Shiv is unaware that the girl is second incarnation of Sati. Shiv gets confused and wonders how a girl stopped his anger.

Later it will be revealed that it was Kamdev's plan to bring Shiv and Parvati face to face .
