In fact I guess this entire thing made ppl respect her individuality n personality more... Gone are the days where ppl would see a crying draupadi running hither thither for help n supreme being krishna bachaofying her laaj...this draupadi shows unflinching trust in her pure relation with krishna n just says his name,and krishna comes as a friend, not god to protect her...I m sorry if anyone is offended but I really dint understand why is it perceived like this...

totally agree with u.

Dude she was daring him. She did washed her hair with his blood anyhow.
And there is this version out there where draupadi had scoffed at all these great mighty men, monsters and saints.
Taunted them for being cowards and stripped herself naked.Everyone was so shocked and dumped that just stared at her.
Later vidur came up with "what happens in dice hall stays in the dice hall". And they came up with this story of dushi stripping her (which he was about to) to save their faces.

I dont blame CVs for this distortion..
kudos to them for creating such,a strong Droupathy..She understood that none of the warriors including her husbands at the sabha were able to save her pride..
Still she didn't lose hope..decided to fight with the fire in her eyes and heart..She had belief in herself..
I like Droupathy this way a lot more than,the original one..

Me too like this Drapadi... Even if they have distorted, I love this strong, feary and darer Draupadi.

And stardraupadi is taunting him to come and try his own luck while she is staking her honor, gambeling it away with the confidence she has on that one promise krishna made to her.
All these men have failed her, not rising their hands to simply strangle those monsters.
Now that one piece of cloth she tied on krishnas hand will be her saving grace.
She is putting all the faith she has got in her "ishwar" and she calls him govind.

The only real Mahabharat I know of is the Sanskrit version of Veda Vyas. I have not read it nor can I. But I will not believe any other version written by any translater. I like this show. Yes it is glorified. So were the Pandavas not worth any glory? They are our heros and no book can compile all their glories. This is a story that has lived centuries on every hindu's tongue.
I do not like books that glorify the anti heros like Karna and Duryodhan. This is a great show with great logic.
Draupadi's speech?! Which women of honor being raped will only cry and not fight and not remind people of their duties?
She had the power to influence all her 5 husbands destroy the hundred cousins. I am sure it was not done without any words from her mouth.
So did Draupadi go sit on Duryodhan's lap for his crummy money like Karna? Was she to stand there looking beautiful? She avenged herself and I am sure it was not done without persistence.
It is Karna who could do anything for money. It is very easy to do charity with somebody else's money. He should have asked Duryodhan about his grandma before calling Draupadi names.

There's a huge difference between inviting and challenging.Draupadi challenged Dushasan because she knew her Govind will protect her. She did say that nobody in this sabha is able to protect her and now the only person she can depend on is Govind and He is the only one who'll protect her self respect.

First of all, I agree that no one has read the original version of Mb, what we have today is nothing but a translation, which has been translated from a version which has been itself translated several times.

@bold: Karna never did anything for money, what he did, was only for some respect which he got only from Duryodhana.What charity did he do with someone elses money?, His greatest or I say the greatest daan in Mahabharata was from him, he took out his skin(kavach and kundala were like his skin) and gave it to indra.
