Some notes about Monday's episode:

1) In the beginning, Krishna said in a normal voice that he will need both Draupadi and Arjuna ... now assuming the scene was the same: we have Drona within earshot, probably a few soldiers nearby who could have heard it, and Dhristi who wasn't too far. He might not have hear the entire thing, but he could probably make out a few words ... that being said ... that was pretty risky for Krishna to say aloud that he will need both Draupadi and Arjun, when the whole world believes that Arjun and the Pandavas are dead...

2) The Hidimbaa events went something like this:
- ARjuna hears voice, Kunti asks him whats up and he was like I hear a lady crying. And he dashes off
- As he is searching for the sound, the other Pandavas have gotten up and were like let's find Arjuna. Bhim gets angry and was like I'll uproot all these trees (even though they got a taste of the Mayavi forest) ... genius
- By the time Arjuna comes back with Hidimbaa, Bhim seems to have uprooted only one tree. and that tree never moved back lol
How did Arjuna accomplish something like that in so short a time??

3) It looks like Drupad has a change of heart since Draupadi was willing to give up her life to protect her father .. so what has Shikandini been doing all along? Was she just going to war and fighting before anyone got to Drupad for shits and giggles? Wasn't she sacrificing her life for the protection of her father?
another genius move by the CVs..

4) The way they made Bhim obsessed about Hidimbaa was very annoying. The eating scene was ok, but I didn't find it as funny as I did it irritating.


Tuesday's episode::

Now we know that Dhristi will kill Drona not out of anger, but to liberate him from some tension ... so what will their reaction be when the vastraharan takes place ... now that Drona is Drupad's friend again, wouldn't it be proper to say something when his friend's daughter (and in those times a friend's daughter was like one's own daughter) is getting disrobed or was his loyalty to the Kauravas too great for his friend, who btw seemed to have the greatest importance in his life.

2) Ok, I have to ask -- has Draupadi's voice changed?? I don't like it one bit. It sounds so dry :(

3) Since we are on Draupadi, she said she came back to save her father ... and then proceeded back to the mountain where IIRC she wasn't going to commit suicide... if she wasn't going to commit suicide, why does she put herself in those types of situations..

4) How can Arjun, while sleeping, be able to hear a lady crying, but while on guard and when his senses should be the sharpest, how can he not hear the rustling of the leaves on the ground as a body is dragged by it... And why did they show Yuddhi guarding too :( Now it seems like wherever Arjuna is , Yuddhi will also be there sharing that same frickin look ... just like how both Yuddhi and Arjuna exchanged a look multiple times while Bhim and Hidimbaa were eating ..

5) I think I've figured out why they always have Drupad screaming - his normal voice sounds pretty weird (no offense to the actor); and even after such calmness in his voice, he started screaming again when he heard about Draupadi going to that cliff or whatever ...

6) Why was Drupad so silent when Krishna was lecturing to him. I mean ... his usual fit and tantrum for not only losing the battle against one gada of Krishna (which barely let out a sweat) but also losing in front of Drona should have been there. His disappointment in Dhristi should have also been there since he couldn't do a simple task. I guess since Krishna won, he got to tell Drupad off?


Agree with you on all points. I guess this is the writers' feeble attempt to give Yudisthir some more footage, the writers seem to come back to their senses once in a while lol.😉 Even if he's not leading the pandavas, he can atleast help Arjun in keeping a lookout 😕 Too bad, he's reduced to doing such things.

Yesterday I was surprised and thrilled to see yudhishtir guarding his folk. But my happiness was short lived as it was only for few seconds before the know-it-all and do-it-all was shown.
Bheem is the one who has some real values and character as he was agitated at draupadi's humiliation and avenged her insult by killing all the 100 brothers involved (had to kill vikarna too as that was what he requested of bheem). In fact he even killed keechaka for eyeing his wife. Sad to see the mockery they are making out of him. For me he is the husband any woman would pray for. In no particular angle can I find arjuna great except for being a skilled archer. Most of the time he fought for his own glory.

True, but I'm not too excited for this Bhim (then again Bhim in BRC's MB wasn't all too awesome either) ... Bhim is one character that is always difficult to capture for some reason.
But --
Seeing as they are taking their time by adding fictional stuff to up the drama / romance / whatever genres that come to their mind, I really hope they show the scene where Bhim goes to get those lotus (?) flowers for Draupadi while in exile. I believe he had to fight those Yakshas until Kubera himself came down and gave permission to take those flowers for Draupadi. I really enjoyed reading about it, so hopefully they will do a scene of something like this (though to be honest, I'm not a fan of this Bhim ... it's probably the characterization that they gave him, but I just don't "feel" anything for him ... and hence why I'm sort of hesitating wanting Bhim to be even involved ... a part of me wants the suave Arjuna to do this, but it differs from the original plot which tears at me 😭😭)

@spatel agree with ur points.still abt drupad being drona frnd again i am able to digest bc atleast it trief to justify dron teaching drishtdyumn.otherwise why should he teach him has been a mystery to me.that was an interesting angle.i am not telling it correct.as per yr point abt dron keeping silence on draupadi cheerharan thogh being drupad frnd- wasnt arjun also dron's fav but he still kept silence so i dont think there will be any problem.

less than average episode again.. and they have decided to show that everyone around knows and treats Krishna as Vishnu Avatar.. that is not good news for me at-least.. 😔 That will spoil the beauty of Mahabharat.. but I know I can not do anything about that.. and I will kill anyone who suggest me to stop watching 😡😆😆

To me showing Krishna-Draupadi meeting before swayamvar is acceptable as he was anyway present in the swayamvar.. so meeting and making friends few days before is ok..

Drona-Drupad reconciliation is also digestible.. two points to support being Drish was student of Drona & Ashwi was a guest in Draupi swayamvar..
