The best Mbh war scene ever! Duryodhan is my favorite! Best mace fighting scene ever also! Like it or not we never had something like this before! It's below LOTR (not too far tho) in term of colossal battle but the close up scene is BETTER! Even Aragorn wasn't that cool when fighting against many soldier!

But,
-where's the chariot? They're all car-warrior aren't they? Not cavalry. Bow and arrow was a standard weapon for everyone. Personal weapon will be used in case chariot is destroyed.
-if Drupad knows chakravyuh then why ask Abhimanyu later?
- I personally prefer Shikandi to stay as woman! It's cool to have a warrior princess! Like in indonesian version of Mahabharat where Shikandi is always a woman, not transgender.

And why was Drupad yelling yeh Drupad ka chakravyuh hai constantly in a filmy way ?

And when did Duryodhan see 5 or 6 Drupads ?

And why was Duryodhan riding with hair flowing without the helmet which one wore for sword fighting or any war skill ?

And why do all have correct naturally grown hair for playing Kshatriyas but Arjun alone has a hair cut , cute though it is , as if he just had a trip to the salon ?

The only positive side was Duryodhan looked handsome and Sudesh Berry fits Drupad's role well .



May be Arjun alone gets Vanity Van his being only Hero of this Mahabharat 😃 and others Don't
Duryodhan looks best and acts better then anyone at least a little better his locks looks good on him
Drupad was good till last scene like a dumb he stood watching 😆 That I found very funny and afterwords no action at all
Actually, though some of the actors are good but direction of this serial is bad real bad 🥱 they are not able to get it out from actors the passion, the expressions, the performance. The lot.

At least that is what I find lacking in this serial. It seems their sole purpose of showing Mahabharat is in it's distorted form in the name of their own version. They are not giving attention to either direction or acting or story.

Extremely poor job from all levels.🤢 Atleast this is my Point Of view.

Did I hear Drupad saying his "Shikhandi Putri"???????
It seems they are making a khichdi out of all the mahabharats combined Ved Vyas ji's Tamil, Indonesian, other writers and they came up with this story No wonder it's so distorted that it doesn't even look like a well versed story at all.

And can we have A REAL ARROW FROM THE QUIVER, PLEASE..
That magic bow thing is disturbing.. And a quiver makes the warrior looks cool.. :)

By the way Why does Drupada wear Shakuni's armor? Imported from Gandhara?

As they already showed Drupad & Shikhandini know about Chakravyuh then how they would show Abhimanyu's death becoz only Arjun & Krishna in Pandava side know about Chakravyuh...God knows rather CV knows !!! 😆

Also, the arrows look like they're made up of titanium, in which case, how do they break so easily? Like when Arjun hurls one to the ground (in his battle w/ Karna)?

Why does poor Abhimanyu have to die? He can survive in all this, no? Drupada & Shikhandi will play havoc w/ the Kauravas, and make that day's work futile. They'll get killed in battle by Drona & Ashwatthama, and then Arjun can vow to kill Jayadrath the next day for blocking YBNS.

Given everything else they are showing, why not this?

I think it's bad quality of cgi rendering. They should put wood texture on the arrow's body. Can't use titanium for arrows I think, even Javelin, it will reduce the distance. Metal on arrow head is enough to penetrate armor...

And what is the material of the armor? Leather or metal? From the texture and the screws looks like supposedly metal, but you can't wear metal on your body like that, standing on midday of battlefield, it will burn your skin! Must have leather/ garment layer below.

Another bad old thing I noticed since the time of Young Bhishma to Pandu.. RUBBER FEATHER ON ARROW. It's 2013, not BR Chopra time.. Is it so expensive to have real feather?

When did arrows have feathers? They'd have a tail composed of the same material as the arrow itself, to have it clamped to the bowstring before it could be released.

Incidentally, bows & arrows made warriors long range fighters, but yesterday, they showed Arjun running & galloping thru fire, which was needlessly filmy. He could have stood where he was and sent arrows @ Drupada, and then nailed him while he went ahead & captured him.

Archers usually fought on chariots, while swordsmen rode horses. Yudisthir should have had a chariot, while Bhima would have been a foot soldier

I mean this part:
http://www.american-indian-art.com/Arrow18b.JPG

In Mbh when Uttara untie pandavas' weapon cover from the tree before matsya battle i think it's described in detail the feathers of their arrows(looks like everyone has their own preference from what birds are the feathers 😊

In fact all of them are chariot warriors. So BRC was right on this. Even Bhima was a better chariot warrior compare to Yudishthir & twins.. Bhishma said yudishthir and twins are 1 ratha while bhima was 8 rathas. Other than Arjun, only bhima's sarathy name was mentioned (Visoka).
Only on certain occasion they must fight on foot.
