Ya u r right but arjun, Yudi, karn, dury do most of d things.

Nakul & Sahdev r also very important , nakul was a good diplomat , excellent horserider & sword man , it is said he can ride a horse in rain also without getting wet , Sahdev was great astrologer & axe fighter . Sahdev use 2 assist Yudi in administrative duties

both wer doctors & can communicate with animals

He was a great horse rider (raining and wet thing is not something possible hence I wouldn't believe) but in epic per say nothing would have changed if he wasn't there except that Yudi would have got one less game to play, and maybe a few less verses so I wouldn't call him important at all

Sahdev was definitely important, he was the first one to openly support Draupadi's demand for war. He was the one involved in framing the Krishna's Shanti Prastav such that Duryodhan Completely rejects it.

Doctor n communication with animals, I haven't read so won't comment, i guess that comes from them being the sons of Ashwini Kumar

I agree. Nakul had been the most handsome man in his times but the TV serials fail to show that. Vin atleast looked like that but in BRC Mahabharat, he was pretty ordinary man. Though Shri Krishna said there, Nakul se adhik sundar adhunik samay main iss sansaar main koi nahi hai. But Arjun, Gajendra sir had been pretty beautiful and better than him.

Exactly my point. I have not seen even a single show where Nakul is most beautiful/handsome, heck even Duryodhan is smarter than him (who I think was definitely not a good looking man considering he was rejected by girls in all the Swayamwars)

Vin as I said was good, but Shaheer, Arpit, Ahem, Rohit are all better than him.

You are right about BRC, well Sameer sir is pretty ordinary looking (in fact by casting two brothers for Nakul Sahdev, who have huge resembles they made Sahdev as good looking as Nakul) , Firoz Khan-Arjun sir, Pankaj sir, Puneet sir all looked better than him. I have my reservations over Gajendra sir though😛

Also It's not just about good looks, I guess the creators are more interested in beautifying Arjun, Yudi, Karna Dury, hence they get better makeup, shine and camera work

I guess the good looking actors want to play more important roles and don't want to settle for Nakul

May be Nakul used to pamper Draupadi and they may be talk about most of time about clothes and jewelleries and finery. Their son might have been also beautiful. Imagine being the son of most elegant pair of that time.

Yes he would be awesome

I wanted 2 know about nakul & karenumati's relationship , If I have 2 right an OS on nakul karenumati then it will be love hate kind of .

As I feel some anger could be there in karenumati as his father shishupal was killed & she was given as gift 2 nakul.

In ashram parva other pandavas queen beauty had been described by sanjay . Karenumati was also dark skin & nakul 2 was dark skin.

Please write

Would love to read it

I've read somewhere that Yudi-Drau's son Prativindhya was lost as a baby and Arjun found him in Ekachakri Nagri during Rajsuya campaign, where he challenged his uncle for duel.

Happy Guru Purnima or Vyasa Purnima. Today's birthday of Ved Vyas

No he was not lost , draupadi & Pandavas left him in kampilya later he was brought by arjun 2 indraprastha.

I also used to think how he can be lost. He was a would be king's son so he might have a strong protection around him.

He was lost and was found in Ekchakra. Which is one of the reasons I believe he was not her son.

Prativindhya was also called avatar of Ekchakra demon. And Ekchakra was the name of the village Pandavas stayed in before swayamvara.

Perhaps Yudhishtira had the son with Devika who was already dead. When Panchali swayamvara came up, he needed to tell Drupada he was not yet married so he'd be allowed to marry her instead of Arjuna. The baby was left in the village with someone. Arjuna later brought him back. Panchali adopted him.

I guess u have some misconceptions 4 nakul , if Sahdev killed Shakuni then Nakul killed Shakuni's son uluka, he killed karn's 3 sons , defeated dussashan d very first day , even killing of bheesam he assisted arjun & shrikhandi in destroying inner protection circle of bheesam. Infact he got many times in duel with drona , karn , bheesam where he fought very bravely. He killed some kaurav's sons.

He was sent 2 West during rajsayu after arjun , it is said nakul brought so much gold & coin that Yudi was forced 2 distribute it amoung his subjects.

Nakul was great diplomat & tactician , I read during exile when Pandavas use 2 kill kaurav"s spies they killed them in that way that it look natural , those tactics were given by nakul it is known as nakula dharman.

Regarding horseriding in rain every thing can't be described by vedvyas . He only wrote things which was very important to know.

I read Yudi told which villages he need which was rejected by dury , Sahdev was not ready only 4 shanti prastav. It's a myth , but as Sahdev was great astrologer dury sent someone to him for d date of war I guess.
