Please.. 😭 Krishna has enough glory.. This glory belongs to my Yudi.. 😭

PS- wasn't Karna decapitated? How did he end up in Mata Kuntis lap then? Did the twins somehow reattach his head? 😕 😆 Definitely need negative Patiyogita points then 😆


Real Arjun had nothing for Karna so he beheaded him.. but our ⭐️Ju inspite of being bhai do anjanae has that special purv janm bandhan feeling so his arrow just wounds him with a 30 mins timer set for death..

By the way, where is Bhima?

Was he taking rest, after killing Dushasen? Or did he have indigestion after drinking his blood, and so remained at the camp?


He dint drink the blood.. may be he got a day off with ladoos after reaching 99% of his target 👏

seems you missed the Lakshagriha planning.. he said the same.. but the CVs expect us to understand that, had adharmi Dury won the war, he would have written his own history.. but not dharmi pandavas..

I thought the implication here was that Pandav side did this 😕 . This statement along with the reminders about Ghato vadh and KK daan

There was one bit that was intense between Karna and Kunti today..the bit where he takes the dagger off her hands and says "Mata"..that came off well between Aham and Shafaq! The rest of it was Melodrama..but i must applaud Shafaq for pulling off even OTT "Rona Dhona" scenes so well..she even manages to look convincing in emotional blackmail scenes! So here's to her emoting!
Must say Aham has done a great job with his bits as well..the intensity, the emotion all there in those eyes and expression...really liked the bit where Karna lashes out at Kunti and in the end pleads her to allow him to do his duty..bound by "Vachan" or otherwise..

I expected a lot more in action between Karna and Arjun on the battlefield..The face-off was great! There's no denying that..the scripts were crisp and both Shaheer and Aham delivered it just as convincingly! But this is war..the biggest Maha Yudh at that! Shouldn't there be more to offer in showing arrows and cannon balls fly around, than just sparks of words all thru'...especially since the CVs intend to wrap up the KaJu war bits in such hurry!

And what is Dury's role in the war? I fail to understand here..ever since the war has commenced, i have only seen him stand, give commands, swear, throw sparks of words, spit vengeance, give grave looks, smirk, express shock..should i even go on?? When do we see him fight? He didn't bother to even try putting up one when Bhim kept killing each of his brothers..i only saw Dury have a go at some poor n battered soldiers and none other..is he only waiting for Day 18?? Even today he was monitoring Karna's fight skills wondering why he wasn't using the Nagaastra and planning to "guide" Karna on that front?!

That the CVs decided to make this Epic and recreate it again is a big task and responsibility in itself! Considering that quite a few who tried their hands at this show failed miserably! This team was definetly one of the best in terms of the Creative content and depiction..yes, we understand they aren't making a remake of the Epic so we will accept their liberty in terms of a few Distortions. yet they have given us some of the most Marvellous scenes and memories to remember from the show! They did do a lot of research on the show and the Epic too..but what happened now??

Why such Major Distortions...such Hurry to wrap up on the most crucial aspects? Why such Character Assassinations? I can't think of any other show on Indian TV that has such a Fantabulous Star Cast!! I mean each and every actor is so Amazing...playing even Distortions to such Conviction...this is by far the Best Team of Actors that has come under one roof..if only they had depicted so many of their scenes in line with the Superb Actors they had...this show would have hit a different peak altogether...a peak that would go unmatched by any other show in the history of Indian TV..so Hat's off to the Awesome Actors of this Epic show!! They Rock it Completely!

nah diala I can never forget an interview I read before start of mb from either our director or someone related to show that in mb noone is wrong. there is a reason for everything. whether that is big or small that's different. so.our fav cvs despite severely blackwashing dury have given dury a reason for everything done to him.he is a scared boy elwho loves his bros but chides everyone who gives him better advice

I never expected ⭐️bharat to decapitate Karna. I always knew they would exploit the moment fully to make it as filmy and melodramatic as possible. Also, ⭐️Shalya is cheap and OTT, like most of the things in the show. There's no way this jackass could be appointed CoS. For all we know, he would happily surrender his forces and Duryodhan to his nephews - is it believable that his guy would be prepared to give up his life for Duryodhan's sake in about an hour?

But showing Karna knowingly use the snake weapon and later on threaten to destroy everything with Brahmastra is simply indigestible. Brahmastra was used by both Karna and Arjun simultaneously. And Karna did fight and fend off Arjun from the ground. He was killed much later when he was off guard and unaware.

Few pages back people were debating on Krishna saving Arjun being un/ethical - well it was a part of charioteer's job description to protect the warrior. In real wars often charioteer carried a shield to guard the archer against enemy fire while the archer's hands remained free to shoot. Even Shalya once saved Karna from Bhima's sudden blow. Bhima was able to harass and immobilize Drona and Karna for long hours on 14th day, largely because of an efficient charioteer (most probably one of Krishna's sons), and the same is true for Satyaki. So I don't see anything unethical about a charioteer saving the warrior's life. Personally I imagine Krishna making a sharp turn so as to give his chariot a quick violent jerk, saving Arjun's head by inches (instead of the popular pressing it down with feet).

but this part I can vouch for the CVs.. their Pandavas wont do that..


Srish.. I think that interview was given when they had some idea of giving us real MB.. and later they changed mind.. I cant believe they are giving us 'this' message

mayb I am give cvs much credit for than they deserve. I have this doubt because they say this statement so many times that it feels like they are made to not say something wrong abt victors hence try to show their displeasure in this way
