Hands up if you grew up to Harish Bhimani's 'samay' and the lessons it held. Hands up, if you grew up sympathizing with the daanveer Karna, and admiring the 'akhand pratigya' of Devavrath Bheeshma. Hands up, if you wanna relive the memories and scrutinize every scene once again!

If your hands are up, then I'm glad to welcome you to our new haven- the Appreciation thread for BR Chopra's Mahabharat!

Before we proceed, here are some rules to be taken care of.

This is discussion thread of BRC Mahabharat only. Do not discuss any other MB here.

Creative criticism is allowed. But bashing any character, member is not allowed.

In case of difference of opinion, lets agree to disagree, as everyone's thought pattern is different.

If you find any post against forum rules, Report such posts.

Refrain from moral policing.

The last, but not the least, have a LOT of fun!

Count me in!! Have seen the entire series twice😳

Thanks dear for letting me know😊

This was a wonderful idea and I can't thank you enough!! Still, the charm of Main Samay Hoon can't me matched... And not to forget the magical yet solid title track which gave the perfect depth to this Epic...

So that's what I call it... The Epic Mahabharata!

Loved Nitish Bhardwaj as Krishna and Mukesh Khanna as Bheeshma ❤️

Hats off to this unique creation which remains unmatched in the History of Indian Television
