Mahabharat Retelecast Discussion Thread 7 - Page 100

I was watching the last day Interview, Pooja was telling Rohit is solved and straightforward like Yudi and teased him saying that other than she doesn't know about staking his wife 😆

Mahabharat is real, it's our history, why it should be a fiction🤔

It's a granth aka an epic like a novel. I couldn't find Pandavs generation tree in history tbh. I tried to see if Jarasandh of Magadh had any connection to the Nandas & the Mauryas but I have not succeded

I mean all the cities and towns and the places were present in current day. I don't think so, it's fiction. I read somewhere that the last king of Pandava line was dethroned by Mauryas.

Let's agree to disagree.

Mahabharata is an Aitihasic Granth/Mahakavya it's means historical account

Jarasangh belonged to the Brihadasth dynasty. There were three dynasties between them the Nandas.

Yes will share next

Manusmriti chapter 8 has mentions about slaves.

By the way checked for your other question.

BORI doesn't consider Draupadi assault as an interpolation

But it isn't a biography nor a documentary.

And is Jarasandh mentioned in that dynasty lineage? I couldn't find that. I would like to see if he is. Mauryas are my fave dynasty

Any author who writes historic would be referring to existing social norms/class/places /rules etc. But the characters in his 'novel' may or may not be real.

Its Ok, we can always have different pov. 🤗
