Jai Shri Krishna

Duyrodhana(Dy) is asking Shakuni(Sh), after Krishana comes here, they won't be able to do anyting? Sh replies yes we can, cry in Pandava's shokasabha. It will take a day for Krishna to reach here, before that in jalabhisheka, Yudhisthira(Yd) can die.

Here Krishna is on the way to Hastinapura, he tells Daruka to go faster.

Sh & Dy reach at the place where Yudhisthira's jalabhishek is going to take place. Shakuni pointing towards to a seat, says he will sit here for Abhisheks . DY asks him about his plan. Sh takes Dy to a place where a rope is tied, which holds a metal chandilier exactly above where Yd is supposed to sit. Sh shows a burning torch, Dy understands his plan. Sh says right now Yd is getting ready for the ceremony, wearing good cloths & gem studded jewellery, he must be the only one who is dressed up so well for his death. Yd will sit here alive , but will be dead after that.

All the pandava brothers are preparing Yd for the ceremony. Kunti feels happy seeing them, she prays for her son's safety & happiness, comes near God's idol, suddenly the lamp in front of the idol shuts off, Kunti gets worried, she prays to god to keep her sons safe. Krishna hearing this promises to protect his Pandava brothers from all the problems, dangers & enemies, because through them he is going to restore dharma. Later in the rajyasabha, Dronacharya begins the 1st ritual of jalabhisheka on Yd. Dhritarashtra(Dt), Gandhari, Vidura, Kunti, Dy, Sh, Bheema(Bh), Arjuna(Ar), Sahadeva(Sh), Nakula(Nk) are present witnessing the ceremony. Dy looks at Sh, who tells him to wait & goes to the pillar where the rod is tied, he places the burning torch on the rope, which starts burning the rope, Sh then returns back to rajyasabha. Dronacharya continues the ceremony, takes a kalash in his hand, asks Yd to repeat after him. Yd takes a vow to searve, protect people of Hastinapura as a yuvaraj.

Krishna asks Daruka, how much time it will take to reach Hastinapura, Daruka replies 1 prahara, Krishna thinks, he must do something now, otherwise Yd's life will be in danger. He lifts his hand, a wind storm is created, which moves towards Hastinapura, it reaches there, affecting everyone in the Rajyasabha . Ar starts wondering what is happening, suddenly looks at the moving metal chandillier above Yd, realizes what may happen, immediately moves Yd from there. Chandilliar, falls after that, where Yd was sitting a movement back. Every one is shocked for different reasons. Sh calls the security incharge, scolds him saying Hastinapur's future would have been different had this chandillier fallen on Yd. Kunti understands the hidden meaning of those words, looks angrily at Sh & leaves from there.

Later Yd tells kunti it was a small accident so not to worry about that.Kunti tells them, what happened today was already written the day Yd was declared as yuvaraj. She prefers to be called mother of her sons who are alive then being called rajamata. Yd says, he is kshatriya, who will not get scared over such incidents. Bh, Ar, Sh, Nk then takes a vow to protect Yd against all the enemies.

Vidura comes there tells Kunti Krishna has entered Hastinapura.They all are excited. Krishna has finally reached Hastinapura.

I didn't see the episode, but okay, an invented incident of Shakuni plotting - I guess there was a shortage of them in the real story.

Yudhisthir saying that he is a kshatriya in response to Kunti's statement seems to suggest that he craved the throne, which was totally uncharacteristic of him. Yeah, his brothers wanted to see him crowned, but that mattered less to him than keeping peace.

This really is a Mahabharat/SB I don't know, if Krishna is actually going to meet the Pandavas this early. Looks like the story will indeed be worth watching. 😆

Krishna said he will protect Pandavas, because through them he is going to restore Dharma in this war. This Mahabharat may be some what different then what we have seen or read before, because mahabharat on it's own or as a part of other purana's is what we have with us. But from Krishna's POV it looks different. I would like to enjoy this the way it is shown, instead of comparing it with the simillar shows or purana's. Original MB was written by Vyasa. All other versions are also from the respective writer's POV, then why can't this MB be from Krishna's POV, sticking to the original story.

^^^^ It sure can, assuming that Shri Krishna's point of view is something known only to him, and undocumented in any of the Puranas. My point - no offense to anybody - I don't recall reading this sort of an incident anywhere - not in Shrimad Bhagvatam, not in Devi Bhagvatam. I'm glad Shri Krishna has contacted Sagar Pictures and asked them to add it into Sagar Bhagvatam. 😆

More seriously, I don't mean to suggest that I'm not enjoying this. I am. I just thought it funny that they'd come up w/ a totally new plot for Shakuni, unmentioned in any of Rishi Vyasa's works, as though he didn't do enough that was documented.

Well It'sice to know taht Kunti is well aware of Shakuni's intentions. In the classic B.R.Chopra MB they never explicitly show Kunti suspecting Shakuni!

^^^ most of the newly invented tracks are funny. Hope the writers are in contact with Krishna same as Bhishma. 😆
Shouldn't they be providing name of the source while showing title credits.
One silly Q, in which show this Dy had acted as Mahadev, this is the 1st mytho I am watching after a long time.

Amit Pachori used to play the role of Mahadev in Sagar productions some 4 years ago. In the Ananda Sagar Ramayan, he is the only one who plays Mahadev. Also, in the initial episodes of Mahima Shani Dev ki too, he used to play Mahadev's role. I'd have liked him to do the same here, but to be fair to the actor, Mahadev's is just a cameo role, unless a serial itself is about either him, or Parvati, Ganesh or Kartikeya.

How can they provide sources? You thnk they have any sources for the Amod & his mom, or Raman/Ramaiya? Or even for that matter, Kritavarma's banshee wife? 🤣 Naah, as you said, they are in direct contact w/ Krishna, just like Bheeshma was, and are making things up as they go along. Sure makes for some interesting viewing, otherwise, w/ everything known, it would be sooo boring 😆

They should show some more plots, but w/ varying degrees of success, like injuring Yudhisthir, and then having him act mahaan and preventing Bhima or Arjun from retaliating. 😆 Oh, and show some friction b/w Kunti & Gandhari - that would be more interesting to watch as well 😆

Same like daily shows, trp will rise then😆 I always believed MB is the original source of stories for most of the daily shows, some times it can be the other way round.😆😆😆
