Actually Ramayana created history with having 77 million viewers on the 25th April 2020 episode.

No other entertainment show across the globe ever had this high viewership since the arrival of OTT channels.

The show which had more viewers that this was aired in 83.

Mahabharata during it's run on DD Bharti during lockdown had high TRPs over 5 throughout

yes that i know but why dint he think of yudi. draupadi would be queen . with arjun that was not possible.

See it all about valour , people use 2 invest in valour more coz it would help them in future.

I will request u read d part where arjun reach dwarka , dwarka citizen filled streets just 2 catch a glimpse of arjun , this popularity was never tasted by Yudi or even nakul who was most handsome man of d era.

Drupad choosing Yudi would not had gained him anything

With help of arjun drupad can win many states , he knew arjun was weapon of drona , he can use him against drona & bheesam thou no one knew arjun is so emotional 4 drona & bheesam. Arjun was like a asset to drupad & he had seen d caliper & valour of arjun. U can say he was impressed by him.

If drupada simply wanted draupadi 2 be queen then he would had kept neeti or dharma gyan competition .

Arjun can became king of any Kingdom which he won , draupadi would had became d queen but kingdom need prosperity.

Draupadi herself gave credit 2 arjun's valour 4 indraprastha"s prosperity.

Having arjun as son in law has many benefits , krishna gave some reasons to convince Yadavs to accept arjun as son in law.

Arjun subhadra alliance too was political , Krishna would had choose Yudi 4 Subhadra but still he choose arjun .

Viratraj offered uttara 2 arjun despite knowing he was not king .

Most probably Yudi dint participated in gurudakshina war , only bheem & arjun were there .

^^^ Virat didn't offer Uttara to Arjun being impressed by his valour.

He did it because otherwise no one would have married her. Arjun a male had stayed in her compartment for a year, that would have affected her prestige in those days' society way too much, and that too without her fault so he offered her to Arjun himself

He wanted an archer to support him. Yudhishtir wouldn't have been of much use to him, plus by then it wasn't sure that Yudhishtir would even become the king

ha yes they were supposed to be dead then.

wasnt yudis rajyaabhishek done though by then. maybe drupad was not looking for a husband for draupadi but someone who would add to his military strength. like u said then it makes sense

No where viratraj mentioned this reason , Varna he would had been very happy when arjun suggested Abhimanyu.

When arjun decline d offer , virat raj asked why he himself don't want 2 marry uttara , arjun said he had taken uttara as daughter & there is no difference b/w daughter & DIL, later virat raj got happy with alliance.

His first choice was arjun . It is mentioned in citations 2.

Arjun was not in his usual self with uttara infact there was no arjun with uttara but eunuch brihanlala was with uttara . Urvashi curse story is not myth , it is present in unbrigade version of MB .

It's our assumption that uttara was offered 4 this reason . If this reason was truth viratraj would had never asked arjun why he don't want 2 marry uttara.

Do u really think viratraj was such a fool who will allow anyone without checking in women quarter.

I m sure eunuch brihanlala would had been checked . Arjun definitely can't bribe d guards of viratnagar to simply allow him .

@Bold not sure. KMG states so, but BORI has removed the Yuvrajibhishek of Yudhishtir prior to Varnavrat

Virat didn't suggest this reason, Arjun asks him not have that suspicion, which would definitely have happened Since he foresaw some suspicion of Virat.

Arjuna said, 'Residing in thy inner apartments, I had occasion always to behold thy daughter, and she too, alone or in company trusted me as her father. Well-versed in singing and dancing, I was liked and regarded by her, and, indeed, thy daughter always regardeth me as her protector. O king, I lived for one whole year with her though she had attained the age of puberty. Under these circumstances, thyself or other men may not without reason, entertain suspicions against her or me. Therefore, O king, myself who am pure, and have my senses under control, beg to thee, O monarch, thy daughter as my daughter-in-law

Arjun actually clarifies that he is proposing Abhimanyu Uttara marriage so that no one doubts their pious relationship

And Virat wasn't unhappy at Abhimanyu's proposal, he simply asked the reason

Aside about Brihanlalla Irrespective of how it was, the thing is something that not many would have believed. Rumours against girls character spread faster than Corona Virus especially in those times

Ya u r right about suspicion thing coz when arjun first entered as brihanlala before viratraj , he then also suspected him to be a man or warrior rather than eunuch after seeing his personality .

Actually had Arjun married Uttaraa, people would have actually believed that Arjun n Uttara had some premarital/illicit affair during that one year despite them being innocent, so with proposing Abhimanyu Uttaraaa marriage he complete put a full stop to any such rumours

Arjun , draupadi, krishna all 3 of them r called dark complexion .

I searched 4 draupadi somewhere she is described as black beauty , some where as dusky beauty .

Dusky complexion is somewhere like bipasha basu I guess ( I can be wrong also ).

Dusky in hindi is known as savla as krishna's one name is regarding this savla thing only .

Krishna's idols represent him as black , like Krishna's idol in kunjbihari mandir vrindavan is black in colour , shri jagarnath ji is also represented as black.

I remember during virat yudh when Uttar asked arjun about his 10 names , arjun replied he got name krishna by his father & his complexion is rare on this earth.

I found arjun name meaning it's white, clear or silver , there is a tree also name as arjun.

Or their complexion was like lord Vishnu is shown in tv blueish kind of .

So i m bit confused regarding d color, what exactly their complexion was.
