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.
shooketh！我的妈呀，笑着笑着开始哭！这部电影拍出了我想看以及不知道我想看的很多元素，无厘头恶搞，绝美中年爱情，多元宇宙，年轻一代的nothing matters everything sucks的虚无厌世主义，最终拿什么对抗呢？啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！以及大银幕上听到普通话听到粤语无缝切换，看到两个中年老戏骨挑大梁，看到百变杨紫琼，啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！
大概猜到了是大饼夹一切，可没想到是移民视角的八九十年代港片夹了个索拉里斯
至少，完全对得起“天马行空”这个四个大字。我对于华人脸孔担纲洋人的电影这事的兴奋度不会高于看到一部出色的华语电影，但我们扪心自问，我们办得到吗？搁下技术性层面，就全面包容度而言，100年都达不到。角色可以拿着大型的Dildo当武器，巨大的肛塞可以用来戏谑，Lesbian的亲密亲吻可以自然而然，哪怕略微血腥的暴力美学我们都看不到了，所以我们凭什么自大地觉得人家拍一部电影是会想要“与遥远的东方相关”呢？人家压根就不在意！因为他们知道自己的作品注定不会被大多数中国人看到。
用宇宙来解决家庭问题，有前卫感，也有形而上的深度，但真的绕太大圈子了。感觉有点儿套大马拉小车。
这片子是搞出来精准打击某类东亚女儿泪腺的吗？？很难说前一个多小时大乱炖有多吸引我，但女主问爸爸你怎能如此轻易放弃我＋女儿支离破碎的告白太让人心碎了🥲 我所在的这类东亚女儿人生最大困惑之一不就是「我活成了我妈这辈子最大的报应我妈却觉得我是她这辈子最大的福报」「这福气给她她还真要」妈的，我们太有毒了真的。还好电影不是人生指南，所以电影可以有和解好结局。然后严谨一点，这里头爹不够东亚，所以流派也就东亚北美分支吧。ps 杨紫琼坚持让女主拥有自己的名字（而非直接用她的英文名）是片里片外最温柔的一点。以及这个爹让我想到李翊云Must I Go里的Gilbert.
很有意思！实际想传达的并没有超过《青春变形记》，还是那样的华裔设定，那样的母女关系，那样感同身受的和解方式。但和一个多重宇宙的科幻概念融合得如此自然有趣。点子倒不新（因此倒方便解释），意识转移想到《超感猎杀》、做小概率事件激活跃迁条件类似《黑之契约者》里面的“代价”、乃至贝果黑洞像是《钢之炼金术师》真理之门混搭飞面神教，但敢于逼近极限是科幻的一个特点，这里表现得很好。Everything，Everywhere，All at Once三幕剧的形式将一地鸡毛、一锅乱炖、一个收束融入较为规整的结构，形散神不散。最后是杨紫琼，真是各种“人生”信手拈来。在中段伊芙琳高速切换平行世界的人设和Boss斗法时，突然觉得这整个故事很像《物语》的风格，比如某天垃圾君为了救妹妹可能会激起的西尾维新宇宙崩塌……
P.S.电影名翻译成"无事无处无不在当下"，可能更贴切。可能推广上，不太好传播。
美国主流价值观+瑞克和莫蒂世界观及亚文化趣味+日本二次元剧情逻辑，惟一的中国要素是香港武打/喜剧电影遗风，纯纯的只有我们这个时代会产生的缝合怪，文化景观。不是电影，甚至并不具备任何美国主旋律电影/瑞克和莫蒂式亚文化动画/日本二次元/香港武打喜剧电影的作品完成度。对于导演是华人，我感觉可悲，因为影片里的中国文化刻板印象比白人作品的刻板印象更愚蠢、更猎奇，以及更大无畏的迎合姿态。它确实是只有我们这个时代才能出现的怪胎。几乎全世界网民都期待这样的作品。
瑞士军刀男我就很喜欢。我喜欢一切想象力，和创造想象力的作品。
比两位导演的前作《瑞士军刀男》要强，但还是有开了脑洞不知道该怎么收的问题，看到第三幕就感觉累了，根本不关心母女如何和解，就希望赶紧结束。
哭死我了 一份对家庭 亲情 暴力 仇恨 爱情 梦想的无价答卷
当然，这片子也给众多文艺逼工作者一个启示：文艺不是装逼，文艺也需要落地。接地气的东西，才是最浪漫的。
期待太高，果然會出事。很像這個時代的產物，類似instagram和facebook那種動不動就更新的換皮膚遊戲，只是一直不停切換宇宙和服裝，看得很疲勞（我相信用電腦看會更累），直到最尾也沒講清楚她們兩個到底怎麼了，但就要收尾咯——就像一個精力旺盛的單身漢，眼見夜幕終於降臨，於是熱切地把媳婦推倒在床上，最後急不可耐地拉上床簾一樣地，得出了那個萬能結論，「愛拯救一切」、「要活在此時此刻」。
太精彩了，啥都好，但是最后为什么一定要和解呢？用爱解决一切问题本来已经够烂了，结果还是用嘴炮让对方缴械。我在看什么日本动漫吗？
披着科幻外衣的亲情电影，软弱的丈夫，叛逆的女儿，报不完的税单，生活糟糕透顶。但如果给你一个机会，可以有完全不一样的人生，你干不干？答案是不，生活中的烦恼来自亲人们，但乐趣和开心也来自他们。人生本来就是无法割裂的矛盾统一体，多少个宇宙都是这样。
让人能全情投入的电影，无论是走肾还是走心的部分，都太棒了，人生的喜怒哀乐都浓缩在这看似中二却把用爱拯救世界这个母题表现得不那么中二的电影中，剧本和想象力太强大了！！！还有视听感受，玩的太溜了
为杨紫琼量身定制的武打动作片，实在抱歉，对这种胡闹的无厘头恶趣味接受无能，但是主旨与内核倒是挺温馨的，verse-jump的设定和概念也新颖有趣，2001热狗手指那里直接看不下去了，此后就戴着耳机用音效煲耳机。第一次打开这部电影评分是8.6，现在降到8.0，不知道此后会不会跌破8分。剧本像是ai随机生成的。宇宙就是一个百吉饼，迟早要塌缩，一切都毫无意义。taxes suck！【WEBRip/DDP5.1/264/NOGRP/6.4G/英字】
造型视觉创意喜剧，梗，致敬，这些都很有意思。我是觉得对于导演来说应该这些比故事内核更重要。然后你要用什么来串起这些东西呢，比爱情还简单，普世的故事就是家庭😂😂在讲故事这一块是比较糙的。比如除了说女儿是个拉拉以外，什么也没讲。之后我们也知道，女儿不住在起，也不太联系。没有太多打扰了。小时候发生了什么也不知道。就自动脑补😂 最后收尾也怪怪的。就反派被逼做实验，然后玩坏了可以同时体验宇宙，因此emo了。然后要找到妈妈，让妈妈也体验一下，然后帮她理解这个世界？然后妈妈也emo了，但是想到老公非常kind，然后自己也应该用乐观视角来面对世界。她就好了？然后就让反派想死就死吧。然后跟女儿说我不会管你了。就和解了？就都拿这个和小熊猫比。我倒是觉得小熊猫是以母女关系为核心来做的。这个只是串一下😂😂
最好的部分都在前十分钟里，之后垮得无可救药，把疯癫玩成俗套，无休无止地折磨观众的神经。但凡亚裔电影必有干涉一切的大家长，剑拔弩张的家庭关系，而编剧还挣扎在和解的泥淖里。
多元的形式感碰撞出属于移民一代的文化激荡，中国式的戏曲、功夫以及蹩脚的普通话糅合进现代的欧美风潮，在平行宇宙的设定持续炸裂，即使平行宇宙的设定在如今漫威或DC对大荧幕的巧取豪夺中已屡见不鲜，可观众就是在面对这似蒙太奇一般高速地声光交叠中逐渐在屏幕前疯狂。不得不佩服两位导演，也不得不佩服杨紫琼，屡见不鲜的社会议题讨论在导演惊奇的脑洞下一个个被引爆，杨紫琼完美地完成了文本赋予她的一切任务，同时在导演各种梗玩到飞起的时候她本身又自带黄金年代的港片遗风，所以这是一场为她量身打造的独角大戏，其他人在她的光芒之下皆黯然失色。 By the way,看完之后感觉引入内地的可能性不大，毕竟有的地方太羞耻了～
