Yesterday (12 April 2012), the TV industry got a jolt with the news of Imagine TV shutting down. <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/changragupta-maurya-aka-ashish-fractures-his-nose-sets>Ashish Sharma</a> was playing the lead in the channels top-rated show <em><a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/chandragupta-maurya-completes-100-episodes>Chandragupta Maurya</a></em>, and in a day’s time he became jobless. Ashish was also left shell-shocked with the news. But now he has got the hang of the feeling and got himself busy with something more interesting.

Tellychakkar.com earlier reported that Ashish Sharma, who plays the protagonist in Imagine's <em> Chandragupta Maurya</em> got a long cut on his nose, which goes up till his right cheek. His nose was almost broken when a stuntman hit an artificial sword straight onto his nose. And sadly, history repeated itself just today (24 January 2012) when the TV actor got a bad bruise on his left cheek. This incident took place at around 2 am.

Actions sequences have to be carefully monitored or else they might end up as disasters. And historical and mythological shows can surely be the ideal place for such mishaps. In fact, the cast and crew of Imagine’s <em><a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/chandragupta-maurya-go-flashback-mode>Chandragupta Maurya</a></em> witnessed something similar on sets just yesterday, 25 December 2011.

It’s time for celebrations. Bring in the cake and let the champagne flow. Reason? Imagine’s popular and successful historical show <em><a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/chandragupta-maurya-be-shot-mumbai-and-baroda>Chandragupta Maurya</a></em> completed a year today since it hit the screens on 19 December 2010.

Imagine’s <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/mrignayni-and-purushdutt-die-chandragupta-maurya>Chandragupta Maurya</a> is one mythological show that has managed to impress TV viewers and critics alike. The show was being shot in Baroda, but the latest news is that the production house has decided to shift its shooting base to Mumbai. However, the cast and crew will go back to Baroda to shoot the indoor sequences as Dhanadanda’s palace (set) is still there.

Chandragupta (<a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/interviews/i-am-not-quitting-chandragupta-maurya-ashish-sharma>Ashish Sharma</a>) has emerged as a great warrior in Imagine’s <a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/alexander-retreat-chandragupta-maurya>Chandragupta Maurya</a> and the person who has helped him throughout is his guru Chanakya (<a href=http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/manish-wadhwa-play-bad-guy-rgvs-shabri>Manish Wadhwa</a>). However, in the upcoming episodes Dhanananda will kidnap Chanakya.

TellyChakkar had already reported about Chandragupta poisoning the soldiers in the Greek army in <a href="http://www.tellychakkar.com/news/mrignayani-come-face-face-chandragupta-maurya"><em>Chandragupta Maurya</em></a>. Alexander’s Army General has finally got to know that Chandragupta <a href="http://www.tellychakkar.com/interviews/yashashree-gifted-me-poster-mine-ashish-sharma">(Ashish Sharma)</a> is responsible for the depletion of the Greek army. In the upcoming episodes he will inform Alexander the Great about this who will then want to sentence Chandragupta to death.
