See, i didnt say anywhere that if you dont read, you are stupid.
I said that if you expect that you will watch starplus and lifeok to understand and know mythology then you are stupid.Because if you want to understand mb you need to read it.Even the old mb was distorted to some extent.

Hey I have doubt regarding Subhadra's entry I know its way back but i wanted to know whether Subhadra and Arujan's story was unnecessarily added, actually they never meet like that casually or do they?? I am confused now!!

ya even i agree you cant expect to know an epic by watching TV 100% agree

Another distortion - Drupad being portrayed as this all out evil guy. 🤔

Drupad did his fair share of sins, no doubt about that. His treatment of Drona was despicable, but why is MB portraying him as this all out evil guy who hates women and tortures sages? He was no rakshas. There is no account of him being a bad King who tortured people, and he had nothing against female children. In fact, he wanted Draupadi to be born because he wanted a daughter he could give to Arjun.

Hate this portrayal of him!

Yup, its one of the biggest creative (distortive) liberty taken by the makers, who claim to have read and researched the epic for 3 years! Arjun never met subhadra like that ! infact in those days no unmarried girls (specially of royal families) would talk or even hang around with boys so openly! In the original version , Subhadra is the last one to meet and marry Arjun. Arjun was already having 3 wives before Subhadra, He was married to Draupadi, Uloopi and Chitrangada. Then during his exile, when he reaches Dwarka , its there that his cousin and friend Krishna introduces him to his sister- Subhadra . It was not the other way round- Subhadra didn't introduce Arjun to Krishna -like the makers showed it. Its the stupidest distortion to date 😡

very simple. the only thing SP's MB got right are the names and some major events. Oddly enough, they screwed up the Lakshagriha, which is a main event, hence the "some" ...

So to answer your question, Arjuna and Subhadra met after Arjuna was married to Draupadi (here is the story:

The only reason I can think of why SP's MB introducing Subhadra as Dussala's friend is because of the chemistry between Arjuna and Subhadra ... and so Krishna would know about Subhadra's love for Arjuna, who was busy petting the horse (that was a funny scene 😆)
