I am sorry if I am stealing your thunder di, but there is already a discussion thread on Mythological Masti forum. Secondly, I was the first (possibly) one to catch the first episode even when the channel hadn't started so yeah!

The series is fantastic as they have provided enough clauses to for every character. So far my favorite episode was that of Draupadi and Kunti! I had simply loved Draupadi's answer to Karna! That was EPIC!!

Panchali to Sahdev - Err, who are you again?

@ashne: I agree. But I do think that Dhirt was the most responsible to spoil Duri. Bhishma & Vidur tried their best, but father's duty comes first IMO, and here father taught him to disobey all elders from childhood. Father was always a yesman for Duri. See, how could Duri make a picnic spot in Pramaankoti at age of 15? He must have enough royal machinery at his hand, no? Also see that Duri wanted to make other 4 prisoners after killing Bheem so that he could rule HP. How can a 15 year boy think this if he was not already spoiled?

Actually its Bheems fault as well, the way he bullied and tortured Duryodhana and his brothers was not good, until then Duryodhana did not do anything which can be called evil.

"..Whenever they were engaged in play with the sons of Dhritarashtra, their superiority of strength became marked. In speed, in striking the objects aimed at, in consuming articles of food, and scattering dust, Bhimasena beat all the sons of Dhritarashtra. The son of the Wind-god pulled them by the hair and made them fight with one another, laughing all the while. And Vrikodara easily defeated those hundred and one children of great energy as if they were one instead of being a hundred and one. The second Pandava used to seize them by the hair, and throwing them down, to drag them along the earth. By this, some had their knees broken, some their heads, and some their shoulders. That youth, sometimes holding ten of them, drowned them in water, till they were nearly dead.."

Duryodhana did not started hating Pandavas from the day he was born, in-fact Bheem was the one who started it all, Bheem actually played a major part in Duryodhanas eternal hatred for Pandavas.

P.S - I don't think dragging Kauravas by their hair and drowning them till they're almost dead can be called childish.

That sounds so heart breakingly familiar😭. Not that it excuses Dushy, of course.

yes the Kumbakonam edition mentions 11 Gandharis but KMG does not explicitly say so when the marriage is narrated.. but later on he does address this blindfold Gandhari as his eldest wife and Dury as her eldest son..

Thats horrible. So how come Dury trying to drown Bheem is always talked about, but what Bheem does is hardly mentioned. So incidents which could have been nipped in the bud by the parents, where ignored and made to fester, till there was no going back :(

Kunti did not have a blindfold, did she? what is more horrible is Vyasa saying Bheem was behaving so out of childishness.. 🥱
