Why is Arjuna shown as leader of the Pandavas? - Page 5

Lo ab shuru ho gayi arjun ki lovestory with subhadra.[/QUOT

I hope they show Draupadi with her 5 husbands in a dignified manner not in sleazy thing 🤢🤢🤢🤢
but wouldn't be surprised if they give it a twist of their own too

I don't think so ... Arjun indeed is key character.. if not leader .. It was Arjun who married Draupadi and then she was shared with others and then there were incidents, dice game and all where Pandawas lost berthing .. Arjun was hiding as (I forgot) ... then in the war field it was arjun who was leading the Army else why krishna ail teach greta to arjun .. and why not to all..

I dnt knw abt u ppl bt whn I first heard the mahabharat story evn I thought arjun was the hero... u knw like sachin tendulkar in indian cricket team...whr everyone contributes bt ppl wait fr sachins battng...tht kinda thing.. m overanalyzng it..sorry if I offended anyone...

I think that every since the show started, more attention has been given to Arjuna. It's got little to do with the actor and more with wanting to glorifying the character, I think. I don't know why that is because whenever I have read or seen Mahabharata, the Pandavas have been led by Yudhishtira only.

Don't get me wrong, I love the character of Arjuna ❤️but I did not like how the new promo showed him as the leader of the Pandavas. 😕All the other Pandavas seemed insignificant next to him, and it was weird seeing him lead the pack when both Yudhisthira & Bhimawere older than him. In the epic, Yudhisthira always led the Pandavas, followed by Bhima, Arjuna, Nakul, and Sahadev in the order of their birth.

It's not necessary to make the other Pandavas insignificant to make Arjuna seem great. What did you all think? If you are Shaheer's fans, please do not be offended or anything. This is not about Shaheer. It's about the characterization of the Pandavas by the CVs.

Fully agree with you.


Arjun was a brave warrior but he always stood behind Yudhishtir. They shouldn't show it as if he's the hero.


Arjun always respected his elder brothers and never tried overshadowing them.

agree with the TM. tho arjun is a key character in the saga, this is starplus version of MB, so i feel they may be catering to trps and fangirls by glorifying arjun more because shaheer is a recognisable face. the problem with this that it makes the other pandavas appear somewhat redundant and as if they are his followers.

i also feel that the character of arjun (and perhaps yudhishthir) may have been somewhat miscast as they are simply using a popular name for a popular character rather than go by the skills/attributes required for essaying the character.

they are doing this just to please shaheer sheikh fans. all the actors are newcomers but only shaheer has a strong popular fan base from the youngsters. therefore just to cash upon his popularity they are showing arjun as the lead.

i wonder if they will also show steamy consummations of arjun with his multiple wives to please shaheer fans and bring trps.

the cvs desperately want to defeat jodha akbar in the genre and tarak mehta in the time slot. however with the crap they are dishing out i hardly see their dream coming true👎🏼

Well Said 👏
and just to please fans and one actor they have ruined the beauty of Mahabharat but I am sure they will have the opposite effect as majority of people are aware of Mahabharata and they can see right through the folly they have made in this Mahabharat. So many twists and so much of their own drama inserted without any logic or respect for our culture and our heroes from the past.

I don't believe in trps 😆 in this country everything's paid for whether news channels or show channels or trps. If their trps are falling then it is neither the set are responsible or the people watching they themselves are responsible for insulting our great heros our greatest scripture for showing disrespect for our culture.

Oh I am expecting something sleazy when they show Draupadi and her husbands and also the Cheer haran scene. I am so sure they can stoop to any level to increase the TRPs. 🤢 and viewers.
