Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev is the story of the Hindu God Shiva, also called as Mahadev. The show portrays his journey from a hermit to a house holder. In the show Shiva takes many incarnations and many incidents take place. However, this plot mentions only the major events.
The story starts with the tale of Shiva's marriage with Sati. Sati who is the daughter of Prajapati Daksha, a staunch Vishnu devotee, is drawn towards Shiva against the wishes of her father. She finally marries Shiva, but soon dies by self-immolation when her husband is insulted at the yajna of Daksha. The grief-striken Shiva produces Virabhadra, who slays Daksha, however he restores Daksha's life after beseeching of Daksha's wife. A distraught Shiva leaves with burnt corpse of Sati and wanders the universe. Vishnu severs the body into pieces, shattering them on earth. Shiva transforms the pieces into Shakti Peethas, embodiments of the power of the Goddess Adi Shakti.
Sati is reborn as Parvati, the daughter of Himavan, king of the Himalayas and Mainavati. She is also the sister of the river-goddess, Ganga. Parvati is raised in the hermitage of the Shiva devotee sage Dadhichi, who teaches her devotion to Shiva. Parvati grows up and like Sati, is captivated by Shiva. She slowly remembers her past life, then wins Shiva by her austerities leading to their marriage.
Shiva and Parvati give birth to Kartikeya, who slays the demon Tarakasura and his brothers. Kartikeya is also nominated for the throne of the King of Devas but Shiva asks Indra to continue as the king. After this Kartikeya is sent to the Dakshin (south) where he is cared by Meenakshi and here he slays the demon (asura), Tripath with her help. The story goes on with the tale of the destruction of Tripura, belonging to the revengeful sons of Tarakasura, who were earlier given boons by Shiva. And just before the destruction of the Tripura, Shiva and Parvati's daughter, Ashoksundari is born.
After the destruction of Tripura, except Lord Indra (the King of Devas) everyone congratulate Shiva for destructing Tripura and also for being the father of Ashokasundari. Rishi Durvasa gives him a special garland, which Shiva gave Narada as prasadam. When given Lord Indra accepts the garland placing it on the trunk of his elephant, Airavata to proof that he is egoistic throws it. This enrages the sage and he curses Indra and evryone to be bereft of all wealth and fortune. Soon later to take revenge on the destruction of Tripura, King Bali attacks heaven and in attempt to steal Amrita (nectar of immortality). But it falls into the Ocean of milk. To get the Amrit back Devas join hands with Asuras to churn the ocean for the Amrita and to share it among them.
The churning of the ocean, known as Samudra Manthan is an elaborate process. In the process the Devas disadvantage the Asuras in many ways. Despite this, they churn the ocean. In the process Lord Vishnu also takes his second incarnation of a turtle, Kurma.
The process releases a number of things from the ocean. One product is the lethal poison known as Halahala. This could contaminate the ocean and destroy all of creation. To save everyone Lord Shiva inhales the poison in an act of self-sacrifice but Parvati rescues him by pressing his neck to stop the poison from spreading. As a result, the color of Lord Shiva's neck turns blue. During the churning many things are obtained from the ocean which includes Lakshmi, the Goddess of fortune and wealth, who is the eternal consort of Vishnu. Thus, everyone gets their wealth and fortune back. Later Vishnu takes the Amrita secretly from the Asuras and distributes it among the Devas.
The story takes some years leap after which it is shown that Kartikeya has been removed from the post of Senapati(head of the army), which pleases Indra and for the first time after so many years, a grown-up Ashoksundari meets Kartikeya. Kartikeya also meets his parents. He enlightens Ashoksundari about meditation and she inspired by it so much that she renounces her life to meditate, which disturbs Parvati.
Looking at the ill happening of the world, of how Ahalya is seduced by Indra, Mahadev come indside. Even after Mahadev tells that he is his father and many other gods tried to tell him, he still refuses. Mahadev got angry and cut Vinayak's head.
难以评价的父亲，毕竟天赋才是更多的决定了一个运动员的上限，如果不是两个女儿恰好有这样的天赋，她们的生活又该有多凄惨？更不用说私生活一塌糊涂，让人敬佩，又难以喜欢
可是抄得不好，摄影机靠理查德或者大威都不够近，难以打动人。加上夹带了不少私货，观感直线下降。
鸡娃鸡到这份上也只能说真牛逼（没有任何讽刺或者说反话的意思，是真牛逼）But，作为一个已经躺平了的人来说，鸡娃是什么，娃是什么，我过好自己的人生就真的够了啊！
国王理查德，但却没有把这个理查德的人物立起来，大小威更是宛如没有性格的工具一样存在，种族议题大于性别议题，但却偏要加入母亲的那段演讲，难看
一切成立的前提是，大小威真的是冠军苗子，不过爹的确是有格局三观正且拼命，各位家长看完快卷起来
所有人都爱我的女神。她去小公园遛个弯，一不小心就成了小说家的缪斯。我的缪斯光芒万丈，卑微、自恋、才智平庸的创作者都只能苟且在自己的小阴影里。为了爱她，我要把自己藏进摄影机，藏进玻璃后面小女孩的眼睛，藏进黑白镜头里一束雏菊与狗尾草的缝隙。从那里仰视她的下巴，鼻翼，和扑朔迷离的一双眼睛，那是宏大宇宙在这个逼仄世界里唯二的美丽入口。
中规中矩的传记剧情 看到久违的威尔史密斯出演美版《摔跤吧爸爸》总是带着极高的期待 《当幸福来敲门》的那些感动在本片变成了冗长的剧情 没有运动励志的热血与激情 时间线在推进时没有标志性事件 父亲这个角色也不够立体真实 那些坚持似乎都是没来由的异想天开 叙事节奏和对白也没有足够交代好整个电影的基调
大威已经够委屈了，而小威委屈的更加彻底，明明我最强，结果连个故事线都分不到
AMC Hoffman Center | 同场的几乎都是黑人，威尔史密斯演的真好，大小威之间的sisterhood真的让人羡慕，最喜欢的是母亲在厨房的那段戏：如果不是两个女儿我早走了！（大概是这样。可见两姐妹的父亲有多爹味。
# 有赖大小威姐妹的参与，服装/装备的高还原程度令人信服。
【7.5】自己的成功需要谦虚，他人的尊重需要赢得，不公的权利需要斗争，实现这一切，还需要整个家庭的互相理解与支持。运动片的尾段总有一场盛大又揪心的比赛，没赢也算是不落俗套，而这一切又是成功的开始，是必不可少的过程，这让片尾罗列的“实绩”更加震撼。全片生活气息很浓，所有人都活力十足，观感自然舒适，非要说差点什么，可能就是太“正”了吧。
interesting angle..but sports are all about the winning spirit, passion, obsession..just not feeling the excitement..the father/coach figure, if only it did a decent job as Dangal. such an inspiring journey, this movie seems barely do justice to their stories. the Williams sister endorsed it so maybe it's a love letter to their parents not for fans
算得上是好看的电影。专制父权下的黑人鸡娃家庭。父亲给女儿规划未来并严格执行，难能可贵的是女儿们都能“服从”父亲，内心喜欢打网球。全家人朝同一个目标努力，这样的家庭氛围让人感动！这个父亲说，第一天带她们来球场就知道她们一定会是世界第一，这样的判断性格而来？她们后来的确成功了，但是如果相反，这样的父亲评价或许只能是独断霸道固执…黑人社区和黑人人权的问题，影片也有涉及。
也太尴尬了。一个人摸了两副同花顺，非要炫耀自己牌技好。全片就是父亲角色在四处嘚瑟和摆谱，故事镜头却忽视了威廉姆斯姐妹本身的努力。拿着所谓的另辟蹊径的破题点，蹭着黑人、女性平权的浪潮，却忽略伟大女性的努力本身。就仿佛威尔·史密斯最终凭借这部电影拿到奥斯卡影帝，凭借的都不是本身的能力，拙劣的道德绑架吧。有些人的“终成影帝/影后”是长篇励志故事，有些人的则是差强人意。
黑权、女权是政治上的光环，然而对于父权的崇拜才是内核，可以说这个题材有很多种拍法，我没想到是这样的呈现，最突兀最割裂就是结尾的冗长的比赛，这样一部电影，真正运动本片不重要，对于我这样对网球本来就不熟悉的人，真的是食之无味，弃之也不可惜。威尔史密斯的表演也挺尴尬的，结尾真人少数的几个镜头，就让我对这个原型人物感兴趣，本质上还是一部父权赞歌，可能在国内还能讨论下，但是还是落后于时代。
拍片的水准很高，故事也讲的很走心，特别一颗星献给理查德，虽然很多人想他如此坚持都没有成功，但因为他的存在让更多人有信心坚持做自己！
推荐星级：★★★
20211205-cinemark theater-扎实的起承转合，无功无过，也许是因为真实改编，所以颇为动人。在废墟里看星星——每当看到这样的场景就想起《平凡的世界》里在废墟读书的孙少平，《女心理师》在堕落环境里寻求改变读书的贺顿，是这些信念成就了这些人，环境也无法毁灭这些信念。
KingWIll，体育励志，美国人的网球情结和黑人梦。
挺流畅的，因为是真实事件，所以不算鸡汤，不过也就成千上万个家庭里面出现这么一个，所以这也是能被拍出来的原因，没啥普适性。当网球来敲门，来打网球吧，爸爸。那几段留白恰到好处
