@vikrant well there you go, she is just being a nice mom who worries.
And if they had made her shadier all you have to do is study indo and especially kerala mahabharat.
Gandhari was involved in lac house conspiracy and tried to poison a pregnant kunti, taught her children to hate pandavas and what not.
Clearly the makers have not gone in that direction.

Well only Ved Vyas Mahabharat can b cnsidered authentic. If what you say is true then why majority hindus worship and respect Gandhari. Creatives treatment of Gandhari is contradictory and that is why I am objecting it.I am talking about consistent approach. Consistent approach sys Gandhari was a exceptional mother and had guts to go against her own husband and children which was considered brave taking into account how Kauravas were. I strongly object your point that Gandhari tied to poison pregnant Kunti. Consistent approach says Kunti was never pregnant and even if she ws then Gandhari never went to jungle then how can she poison Kunti. Its a cnsistent fct that pandavas were born in jungle and not in hastinapur. Your comment proves creatives hve distorted Gndhari's character and now time has come for mass registration of complaints against creative team bsed on comments in this article which proves how creatives have manipulated rsulting in sentiments hurt. Please note: Creative Team edited the scene which they hd shown day before ysterday where Gndhari asks Shakuni to ensure Pandavas remain poor and isolated.

Vyas ws the original author of mahabharat agreed. But that doesn't mean that other versions can be called inappropriate or un authentic. Every person has a different POV. U wish to make a mandir for gandhari n worship her there, f9 that's ur opinion. The makers n most of the ppl here hav the opinion that she is an ordinary human being who cn go to any lengths to save her son. If not agree, atleast respect that opinion. N btw the scene which initially brought up this topic IS NOT TELECASTED. It might be for various reasons best known to the Chanel n the editing team of the show. So holding that one line in mind n pouncing upon the shw n it's appreciative viewers does nt make sense to me...

God, did I read other versions cannot be considered unauthentic. Ved Vyas wrote future of his sons,grandsons,he is the original writer from whom others have taken inspiration and have written their own vrsions. You can consider Chopra and this creative team as well in the list. If we go by what you said, should we also consider chopra's and this version is authentic when the channel does not claim they are referring to any versions. You guys said this right. To end with, what will you consider more important what millions out in the country like me think of Gandhari or few thousands ohh sorry few ten's on this forum think. If makers dont justify her character then complaint is valid.

Authentic?
Yeah go and tell the population of rajesthan, kerala and other states and tell them that their version of mahabharat is not authentic.See how that goes.
Even the tamil translation of ved vyas mb is very different from northern translation.
And you should be complaining now and hopefully these millions of people who worshhip gandhari will support you.
We 10 people here will watch and debate till july and move on with our lives.

i guess we dont have the authority to validate which mahabhrata is correct! and please dont be offended but you are not the only one who is well read!! we all have read a lot on these topics.
Please give some respect to all the versions.. and no one knows whats the truth!! There are good things and bad things in everyone if gandhari is criticized for being such a heartless person towards the pandavs her sankalp to forever tie her eyes for her husband is commendable!!! I mean hats off to that lady for that courage! Mahabharata has the strongest women characters that doesnt mean they wont have flaws or else they would be godesses! And please show some respect to every version!

Star Plus did a fantastic job in visual effects but have completely ruined important characters specially Gandhari in particular. If todays episode turns out how it appears from the add then creative team would have crossed all limits to an extent,that we have decided to register a complaint with broadcasting authority if her character assassination continues. Creative team will have to prove their point with reference to what is written by Maharishi Ved Vyas about Gandhari. We have a very different view on Gandhari and what was shown yesterday after the show is nothing less than character vastraharan. We will wait for today's episode telecast and if Gandhari's character assassination continues we will demand explanation and proofs for potraying Gandhari in a manner creative team have shown. Mahabharat started well but went on a disappointing run when Bheeshma and Vidur were sidelined. Gandhari's role was chopped and slowly treatment to the plots made one feel that they are watching a typical saas bahu serial. Makers of Mahabharat are making her loook like a typical mother but she was not like the one this team is potraying. She was strong willed and had the strength to accept what her children deserved. She objected injustice and that is what makes her an idol which this team have failed to understand.


Dear i think u hvnt read all quotes and facts abt the epic its said dat gandhari was jealous of kunti ...
Even its a fact dat once kunti entered her shiv mandir so gandhari insulted kunti .
Even she ws clear abt her views dat duryodhan and shakuni ws doing adharma but den also she supported dem...
Even at d end when krishna comes to met her after war she cursed him and told him dat he ws partial towards duryodhan...Even though she know bhishma, dronacharya were against duryodhan den also dey were forced to fight from his side...
Even dritrashtra tried to kill bheem at d end after war wen he came to meet him but he ws saved due to krishna...
Gandhari was jealous of kunti dat even before her pregency ws terminated kunti had her son even she realised d fact much earlier dat her 100 sons were nothing in front of pandavas...
And d creatives r showing d facts dat were never highlighted in pervious series of d epic...

There are versions justifying Duryodhana's stand, few have justified Shakuni as el, there a novel "Mrityunjaya" in marathi which justifies Karana's stand. So can we consider these as vlid and authentic. All I am saying is creatives shud go with consistent approach. How can creatives justify their stand becoz it is written in Kerela or Rajasthan version. How can they ignore cnsistent approach.

Ah, now is the time to bow out of this pointless arguement since you cannot differentiate between novels based on mb like yajnaseni,ajaya,mrityunjaya etc. And regional/language wise translation and variation with different version of mb like kmg,rm,crit.Ed., kerala/bengali/tamil mahabharat.

I did not expect you to run away. Either you have agreed to what I am saying or you have realised your view on Gandhari is wrong. Anyways I am coming up with another article on Mahabharat. Let me know what you think of it.
