When I first saw the promo of this show my reaction was ROFL 🤣 The reason is the 'love triangle'. A love triangle between Karna, Arjuna and some princess sounds ridiculous. And given the fact that people know they're brothers makes it all kinds of wierd. I think that's what worked against the show. They marketed it like a love triangle and not a unique perspective on Mahbharata through the eyes of Karna's wife. There's nothing wrong with showing Uruvi as a close associate of the Pandavas/ Arjuna, for the conflict it provides but they've overstretched the Arjuna/Uruvi/Karna thing even more than the book. People see Karna and Arjuna as brothers at conflict. To see them as fighting over a woman would not be palatable to many.

I didn't have more than basic knowledge of MB then and learned a lot from people like you, amritat and many others. I am not watching KS anymore but loved your 'lazy thoughts.." wala post 😆 checked for a few days whether you are still posting any gem like that. But you have dissapointed me big time..😭 I don't get time to post myself very often..this is a new id of mine...forgot about the last one...😕previously due to inadequate knowledge and now a days a thing called life outside virtual life got in *sigh* Hope you will start posting few more gems full of humor again. Will stalk you again to see if request is granted if you don't mind😉

Hey, feel free to call me Jamy. I remember a similar ID, but not any conversations. Anyhow it is nice to know someone who has been observing me very closely. And thanks for the complements. 😊 This show has became too dull for me to post anything about. Still I come here only for old friends. So please forget my 'perspectives' on MB. They're no better than the barking of a stray dog. And stalk me indefinitely. I don't mind at all.😉

Thank god..Jamy is far less exhausting to type...nah.. previous id was named after some movie character ...:-( Posted in 'arjun' and 'manmarziya' forums very few times.You find the show too dull to flex creative muscles... So no worth stalking anymore you say? 😉anyway deviating from the topic. Do you seriously thing this show could have been better considering the 'not so good' book it is based on? I think @sweetrougue has a point here. love triangle between brothers (may be unknown to each other) is hard to digest for serial addicted aunties too..

I think there are a lot of factors working against the show.

Mahabharat on star plus was aired just a couple of years ago with top notch music which became an instant range.
Amazing sets and actors yet it garnered criticism for not portraying grey characters.

Karna's wife though a good book was not a national bestseller .
Added to that it shows a fictional character never heard of by most of the TV audiences.
Mahabharat is viewed as having a lot of divine and supernatural elements along with the divinity angle of Krishna.

The show would have worked much better if they actually made a modern contemporary adaptation of the book. Also showing a modern and innovative twist to it, maybe even a happy ending
A story maybe about a either royal or rich family business rivals with uruvi a rich family friend choosing an outsider than her childhood friend.

Something on the lines of a Raajneeti or the old Rajnikanth movie Thalapathy ( all the characters were very sensitively portrayed and you fall in love with Rajanikanth's character very similar to Karma's)
In fact there was an old serial in Star plus called I think Saarthi , don't remember the name which was a modern day Mahabharat.

when they said its a mytho with contemperory storytelling even i expected a modern story.. new generation karn and arjun.. not a mahabharat background.. that would have been perfect

Well buddy, if you say so. 👍🏼
I think that this show is better than the book it is based on. Despite the warnings I've been given, I went ahead and read it. I couldn't get past a few pages. And all sensible persons I knew avoided this book. I am watching it for the PH, Aashim & Madirakshi. Let me see how far I can go with it. I think this show is better than the book, but not good enough to catch most audience. Not just the brothers triangle, Kane's take on Karna & Draupadi could also be a reason for less viewers. Who knows! The point is, people cannot see it only as a means of entertainment as the makers claim it to be. And saying that shows like these don't fulfill the established notions make no sense as most people who watch it are aware of the fact that it is based on Kane's FF.
