'''''Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev''''' (English: ''God of Gods...GreatGod''; Hindi: ''देवो के देव...महादेव'') is a [[Hindu]] spiritual drama which airs on [[Life OK]]. It premiered on 18 December 2011 and showcases the story of [[Lord Shiva]], lovingly called as Mahadev.<ref>{{cite web|title=''Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev'' started premiering from 18 December 2011 onwards and is the story of Lord Shiva (Mahadev)|url=http://www.techtipspro.com/2011/12/devon-ke-devmahadev-on-life-ok.html|publisher=Techtipsro|accessdate=7 November 2012}}</ref>
 
==Plot==
The drama is inspired by the works of [[Devdutt Pattanaik]]. The story has been researched from [[Bodhisattva]] and has been penned up by Mihir Bhuta.
The show's plot revolves around the story of Lord [[Shiva]], which follows his journey from being an ascetic to a family man.
During the creation of the world according to Lord [[Vishnu]] and Lord [[Brahma]], Adi Parashakti leaves Shiva from his [[Ardhanarishvara]] form. In order to shape the universe, she takes various births to marry Shiva but fails 106 times due to which Shiva becomes an ascetic. Hence Lord Brahma suggests his mind-born son Prajapati Daksh to please Adi Shakti and request her to incarnate as his daughter.
The serial was earlier titled ''Sati'' for [[Star Plus]], but after being handed over to [[Life OK]], the title was changed to ''Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev''.{{citation needed|date=November 2012}}
Adi Parashakti is born the 107th time as Daksh's daughter [[Sati (Hindu goddess)|Sati]]. Meanwhile, Shiva cuts off Brahma's fifth head making Daksh hate him. Sati falls for Shiva and finally marries him, much to Daksh's dismay. Hence, Daksh humiliates Shiva in front of Sati in his yagna. Unable to tolerate her husband's insult, Sati sacrifices her life once again. An infuriated Shiva orders [[Virabhadra]] to behead Daksh. Later, he revives him at Prasuti's request and goes into deep meditation for centuries.
Adi Parashakti then is born as [[Parvati]] the 108th time as the daughter of Himavan and his wife Menavati. She is aware of her divinity as are her parents, and grows up in Dadichi's hermitage. From an early age, she starts addressing Mahadev/Shiva as her husband which Menavati, as a concerned mother, dislikes strongly.
 
When she grows up, Parvati tries to make Mahadev realize that she is none other than his wife Sati reincarnated. But he rejects her and in the process, turns Kamadev into ashes. As a result, Kama's distraught wife, Rati curses Parvati.
==Plot==
[[File:Maa Kali and Maa Durga in Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev.jpg|thumb|250px|left|[[Sonarika Bhadoria]] as [[Kali]] (left) and [[Durga]] (right)]]
''Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev'' is the story of the Hindu God [[Shiva]], lovingly called as Mahadev. The show portrays his journey from a hermit to a house holder. The show started with the tale of the marriage of Sati to Shiva.
 
Parvati then agrees to marry as per her mother, Menavati's wish. However eventually Parvati and Himavan make Menavati realise who Parvati is, after which she gives in. Parvati goes on to meditate for 3,000 years to please Mahadev to marry her. And finally, Mahadev and Parvati are married. Later, Mahadev imparts some tantric knowledge to Parvati that helps her to take various forms like Nav Durga; [[Mahavidyas]] (Kali, Tara, Tripura Sundari, Bhuvaneshvari, Tripura Bhairavi, Chhinnamasta, Dhumavati, Bagalamukhi, Matangi and Kamala) and [[Matrikas]] to destroy Raktabeej, Shumbha Nishumbha, Chanda Munda, Durgmasura, Arunasura, Banasura, etc.
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 Peetha]]s, embodiments of the power of the Great Goddess [[Adi shakti]].
 
==Cast==
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.
