The Final Battle of Arjun & Karna as per the Epic - Page 5

They should handover this arjun character to us. Srsly man! Now i realised tht none can portray arjun better thn arjun lovers! And same with each and every character of mahabharat! Though i am not karna lover but i atleast can portray him in a right manner. Srsly these CV writers should give up writing for such awkward and foolish ideas. Only the people who doesnt know mahabharat can enjoy this

Tht bheem can only roar...😆

Hello vinnas. Thanks for the greetings.

@itelidevera

Don't get worked up. This parody is not worth it. Though your citations are a delightful burst on the berserk writing that is going on pretending 'creative retelling'. But if this citations open even a handful of ignorant fans to the actual source lines, it would be some return on the exertion...

Just read it somewhere that Utkarsh Nathani is one of the creative. Surprising and disappointing. For he had got some flair as far as i have watched him with a previous show. But then i saw name of Devadatt Patnaik. Well, this explains! Mangling is inevitable. After all, here is poor man's Wendy Doniger. 🤢

I know Utkarsh Nathani had some flair in connection with his previous show. I was also impressed to some extent. But as far as this show is concerned he is doing anything and everything to show the lead as Mahan and Pandavas as hopeless weaklings.When my friends raised their voice on his FC he blocked them. His creative excellence made Siya Ka Raam a parody on Ramayan.

About Dev Dutt Patnaik I must say he is even worse. I read his Jayam and understood how ignorant he is of Vyasa's vision. So when two perverted and desparate minds come together the outcome would be just the way SPK shaped up.Feel bad for those who believe whatever is thrown at them.

Rather It became an obsession for modernists to hail the one who is flawed.Selfish,boastful and dishonest.They would change all these traits positively and make a Paper Tiger of sorts.

Then they will try to prove the author himself as biased and then try to prove his work unauthentic.

In doing so they go to the extent of removing the parts that show them mirror .

I mean whatever does not suit their hero becomes later addition

The latest Ofcourse is to prove the charecters non existent

What to do? Nothing. Depressed but hopeful of

A dawn that scatters the mist and let the real hero take the credit.

They admitted they mostly followed BORI and KMG.

Then how come they changed the facts on 16th day battle?

Till today people believe it is authentic.

I wonder Taking Sukthankar's name how can they

Insult him by distorting the facts?

Speaking of the Source, KMG's closing lines at the time of Karna's end were most emphatic. It shows how author (Vyas) himself is assessing him. Notice, Vyas is delivering the critique through his most revered Lord. Govind is lashing Karna with a scathing summary of his misdeeds and deceits that destroyed many lives, including entire clan of his benefactor, mentor friend...

"Sanjaya said, 'Then Vasudeva, stationed on the car, addressed Karna, saying, "By good luck it is, O son of Radha, that thou rememberest virtue! It is generally seen that they that are mean, when they sink into distress, rail at Providence but never at their own misdeeds. Thyself and Suyodhana and Duhshasana and Shakuni, the son of Subala, had caused Draupadi, clad in a single piece of raiment, to be brought into the midst of the assembly. On that occasion, O Karna, this virtue of thine did not manifest itself. When at the assembly Shakuni, an adept in dice, vanquished Kunti's son Yudhishthira who was unacquainted with it, whither had this virtue of thine gone? When the Kuru king (Duryodhana), acting under thy counsels, treated Bhimasena in that way with the aid of snakes and poisoned food, whither had this virtue of thine then gone? When the period of exile into the woods was over as also the thirteenth year, thou didst not make over to the Pandavas their kingdom. Whither had this virtue of thine then gone? Thou didst set fire to the house of lac at Varanavata for burning to death the sleeping Pandavas. Whither then, O son of Radha, had this virtue of thine gone? Thou laughedest at Krishna while she stood in the midst of the assembly, scantily dressed because in her season and obedient to Duhshasana's will, whither, then, O Karna, had this virtue of thine gone? When from the apartment reserved for the females innocent Krishna was dragged, thou didst not interfere. Whither, O son of Radha, had this virtue of thine gone? Thyself addressing the princess Draupadi, that lady whose tread is as dignified as that of the elephant, in these words, viz., 'The Pandavas, O Krishna, are lost. They have sunk into eternal hell. Do thou choose another husband!' thou lookedest on the scene with delight. Whither then, O Karna, had this virtue of thine gone? Covetous of kingdom and relying on the ruler of the Gandharvas, thou summonedest the Pandavas (to a match of dice). Whither then had this virtue of thine gone? When many mighty car-warriors, encompassing the boy Abhimanyu in battle, slew him, whither had this virtue of thine then gone? If this virtue that thou now invokest was nowhere on those occasions, what is the use then of parching thy palate now, by uttering that word? Thou art now for the practice of virtue, O Suta, but thou shalt not escape with life. Like Nala who was defeated by Pushkara with the aid of dice but who regained his kingdom by prowess, the Pandavas, who are free from cupidity, will recover their kingdom by the prowess of their arms, aided with all their friends. Having slain in battle their powerful foes, they, with the Somakas, will recover their kingdom. The Dhartarashtras will meet with destruction at the hands of those lions among men (viz., the sons of Pandu), that are always protected by virtue!'"

"Sanjaya continued, 'Thus addressed, O Bharata, by Vasudeva, Karna hung down his head in shame and gave no answer...
