Sayanee.. you had me interested.. Never read this section before.. Here is what I found..

Vaisampayana continued, "When the illustrious slayer of Paka refused to ask for any other boon, Kama with a smile again addressed him, saying, 'O god of gods, even before this, I had recognised thee, O Lord! O Sakra, it is not proper for me to confer on thee any unprofitable boon, for thou art the very lord of the celestials! On the contrary, being as thou art the Creator and lord of all beings, it is thou that shouldst confer boons on me! If, O god, I give thee this coat of mail and ear-rings, then I am sure to meet with destruction, and thou shalt also undergo ridicule!

What bothers me about the distortions, is not that the fact they are 'distortions' but that they have some poor writing and pass it off as 'creative liberty'. If you look at it, it's just fan fiction, and some of it is very poorly written and executed, the current track for instance.

It's that level of fan-fiction where the CVs indulge in wishful thinking- Some of the episodes and portrayal of characters is just about how the CVs wish they were in the epic. I would like to present Karna's example here. They have made a complete mess out of him. Any adaptation whether on video or in writing will tend to have biases, but the show has gone overboard when it comes to Karna.
