Is history real or fake


                  Is history real or fake ?

                       We don't know what really happened in history. There maybe fights, comedy, love, friendship, sorrow and many more . There are many serials and movies based on history. One of it is Chandra Nandini serial on the life of emperor Chandragupta Maurya and his wife Nandini.
           


In history Chandragupta had 2 wives they are Durdhara and Helana (daughter of Selucus). There was no character called Nandini. There are many similarities and differences between the serial and history. They are:
In the serial the father of Chandragupta Maurya was Suryagupta Maurya but in history it is said as Sarvarthasiddhi Maurya.

The mother of Chandragupta Maurya was Mura Maurya which is said in the serial and in history.

In the serial they say he thinks with his brain and never with his heart but there is no reference on this in history.

Chanakya was the mentor of Chandragupta Maurya( who everyone knows).

Chandragupta Maurya defeated Dhananda given in history but in the serial he defeated Mahapadmananda (father of Dhananda ).

Both the serial and history say Amatya Rakshasa is the chief minister of Nandas.

Both the serial and history say the king of Parvataka (the brother of Porus2 ) Vairochaka and his son Malayketu helped Nandas in the battle.

The first wife of Chandragupta Maurya is Durdhara(the daughter of his maternal uncle) in history but in the serial he first marries Helana (the daughter of selucus).

As said before Chandragupta Maurya had 2 wives said in history they are first Durdhara(the daughter of his maternal uncle) . He married her at a young age. Then after the death of Durdhara at a age of 40 he married Helana. He lives with her only for a few years .

But in the serial they say Helana is the first , Durdhara second and Nandini is third. Nandini is the daughter of Mahapadmananda and married Chandragupta Maurya on a compulsion. After few days they fall in love with each other.

Durdhara gave birth to Bindusara which is said in both history and in serial. Durdhara dies after giving birth to Bindusara
These are the points I collected. Saying this I conclude by asking a question is history real or fake?
