After Doordarshan decided to air Ramayan, we were excited, looking forward to Mahabharat. The show ends with Yudhishthir's Rajyabhishek and Bhishma's death.One good thing about the coronavirus lockdown is that many channels have decided to re-telecast iconic shows from the past. Gandhari holds Krishna responsible for her son's death and curses that his family will also get destroyed. The latter shows the deaths of Bheeshma, Drona, Karna, Abhimanyu, Shalya, Shakuni, Jayadrata, Ghatotkacha, 100 Kauravas, 5 sons of Draupadi and many other warriors in the war leading to the victory of Pandavas over Kauravas.
Kunti's sorrow on the corpse of Karna reveals Karna's true identity of being the eldest Pandava.īefore Mahabharata War, Shri Krishna enlightens Arjuna about the " Bhagavad Gita" and showed his Virata Swaroopa to Arjuna. Indra in the disguise of a Brahmin took Karna's armor and earrings. Krishna tries to make peace between both parties.
This conflict begins to sows the seed for the Mahabharata War.Īrjun and Subhadra's son Abhimanyu marries Uttara. Duryodhana argues that the Pandavas violated the condition of anonymity in their last year of exile, therefore they must spend another 12 years in exile followed by another year of exile in anonymity. Latter shows Duryodhana's revenge by trying to disrobe her and sending Pandavas along with Draupadi for an exile of 12 years and 1 year of anonymity. Later, Yudhishthir is made the king of Indraprastha and Pandavas conduct Rajsuya Yagna where Draupadi insults Duryodhana. Duryodhan is made crown prince of Hastinapur.Īrjuna wins Draupadi in her swayamvara but later shows her marriage with all five Pandavas. Shakuni (the maternal uncle of the Kauravas) and Duryodhan hatch a plan to burn Pandavas and Kunti alive, but they survive and go into incognito. Dhritarashtra makes Yudhishthir the crown prince of Hastinapur. For revenge, Drupada obtains Dhrishtadyumna and Draupadi. Pandavas do so and give half of his kingdom to Drona.
The story then focuses on the childhood of Lord Krishna.Įlsewhere, Dronacharya teaches Pandavas and Kauravas and asks to defeat Drupad as Guru Dakshina. He shows the birth of Bhishma and his oath, birth of Pandu, Dhritarashtra and Vidur and birth of Pandavas and Kauravas. The show begins with Emperor Bharata giving more importance to 'Capacity' than to 'Birth'.
