You should watch Dharmakshetra. It was a TV adaptation of Palace Of Illusions on Epic channel. Quite nice. It's available on Netflix.

As much as i know dharmakshetra was about mb character s trial in chitragupta s court is this the plot of POI??

Plus POI has drapaudi-karna angle i don't think this part is there in dharmakshetra

Fantastic!! Deepika would be fab!

I quite like Rana as Duryodhana as well - but then he will need to bulk up for that.

Can't wait for the announcement of the whole cast.

Who is playing krishna ? Bheem? Arjun?

For bheem they can take prabhas and arjun can be vicky krishna will be difficult one there are not many eho can match up to kanha s charm

This is fantastic. I do not care about the actress but it is amazing that Mahabharta is being told from Draupadi's POV. It was long due. Mahabharta is always a story of Pandavas, Krishna, Arjuna, and Draupadi was just portrayed as a "Reason of war". Our society needs to know a woman's perspective. I hope they also explore other women in subplots like Kunti, Gandhari.

Deepika is not a bad actress. If the movie is made well, she will shine.

Oh I didn't know this. Will check it out soon! Thanks :)

I am never upset with her. She is wise. It's just the haters who put all DP fans in the same bracket with their notmydp chants.

DP fans who were upset that she chose to do a small role in 83..will now be pleased to see Ranveer doing a small but important role in her latest production.

Co-branding is not only for ads,it works great for films too.

Huge congratulations to Deepika. This is opportunity of a lifetime. I am so happy and proud she got this role.

Oh shit I was wrong. I got confused with POI and The Twentieth Wife which was adapted by Epic for their show Siyaasat. Sorry, my bad.

Where does it say it is a PoI adaptation? 🤔

Also, while CBD is a fabulous writer, PoI is very 80s in its feel. The female main character in love with her assaulter? 🤢 Please! The original author, Krishna Dwaipayana Vyasa, wrote his female lead as magnificent, never, ever having anything other than disdain for CBD's "hero." PoI reduced Panchali to a nincompoop.

So is it the same book where Draupadi secretly loves Karna? Yikees..and if I'm not wrong Karna calls Draupadi a prostitute during the vastraharan right? Yet the feminists of the forum are okay with the Karna- Draupadi angle

BTW.. Epic username😆
