Looks like Mama Shakuni is very fashion-savvy. Is he following the latest trends in hairstyling in Dwapar Yug with that hair colour, leaving even the youngsters behind? 😃

Edit: Oh yes, just remembered, Dushy is not far behind mamashree.

for 12 yrs in vanvaas, yudi regularly washed drau's feet, even when she was mad and shouting at him.

His brothers will find it out once and would be surprised. krishna will tell them because only yudi knows now who drau really is.

So, his hero worship is valid for the dialogues.

my dear friend @LeadNitrate was asked for a citation.

mods feel free to move this to where else it needs to go

posting from tab so not easy to copy paste links from here to there

so from RM's modern retelling of the mahabhatat: Ballav's night visitor.

she sat on her bed, staring glassily shame and rage making her way within hwr. She must have Keechak dead nothing short would do. He dared lay his filthy hands on her; he dare kick her. He did not know her. She was a flame; she would consume him. She did nor eat. She did not sleep; or even lie down. She sat there like a fierce statue PLOTTING Keechak"s death. Slowly a PLAN formed in her mind. Near midnight she rose and like a spirit possessed made her way through the palace corridors to the kitchens where Ballav, the king's cook slept.

She glided into that room; seductive like moonlight and lay beside him. She aroused him in his sleep and when he cried out in his sleep sealed his mouth with a kiss and made such tender love to him".

THIS in my opinion cannot be shown to a show that little kids watch. Mods my knowledge of the text was questioned and thus I posted this.

@LeadNitrate Tannie please continue with proving more of what dpadi says to convince bhim to carry out her bidding.

and if RM is questioned as authentic which I am sure it will be please show how RM is a summary of KMG.

you are a lot more eloquent than I am.

I thought that part was just folklore, not epic?

I liked the jugalbandi more than the thandav.

The thandav seemed either not well choreographed or not well rehearsed.

But you know as well as I do that different choreographers have different expertise so maybe Tusshie would have worked better?

had to copy something from a bit before since this shows, how bhim has become considerably patient as well.

I asked for the citation where she planned keechaka's killing not convincing bhima

by planning i mean the idea to lure him to the dance room so that bhima can kill him.this was bhima's plan not arjuna's or draupadi's

Originally posted by: LeadNitrate

What I understood, Bheem thought of something but did not act, it was draupadi and her incitement that made him act

also vyas keeps on saying the panchali, who is smart, why would he say that if she was not the main conspirator? Why did she choose to go to Bheem only?

Is there any proof, had she not gone to Bheem, he still would have planned to kill keechak? how would he have lured Keechak?

For an ardent bheem fan, I was more or less okay with the way things were shown, and pissed coz panchali was not shown as main plotter.

Now Whatever floats your boat

For once, a valid 'Mahanayika' war scene.😆 -Tired of unceasing rants @ 'Mahanayk' hogged glory/ stole the scene/ favoured, spacious, prioritised etc...all this while, conveniently blinking a basic fact- from very first Shloka, story is primarily about Arjun's glorious etching and devotion to Krisna: by Ved Vyas himself.🤢
