Thanks for the info on who plays Bhima. Are you sure about that? Also, can you tell me who play these characters:

Vasudeva -

Kunti -

Nakul -

Sahadev -

Tan

I've been trying to find out the names of the major cast members, and have most of them. Once I find out a few more, I'll submit that to the mods to edit the cast list.

You can see the list, as it stands so far, on the last page of the Help Desk of this forum. If you want, I can move those discussions here - we've had some already.

I like Amit Pachori. While I'd have liked him to be Mahadev here too, I know that Pachori probably doesn't want to be typecast, and Shiva is just a peripheral role. That said, I'd have preferred him to play someone on the Pandava side.

I agree that Bhima is remarkably good. One thing I admire about this serial is that it's not obsessed w/ Arjun, the way another serial 20 years ago was. It's given due prominence to Yudhisthir in the start-up to the events of Varnavarta, and it's giving due prominence to Bhima now. One thing that surprised me - them showing Hidimba & Hidimbi today. Given how they've not shown Karna so far (usual actor draught?), I thought that they wouldn't show Hidimba & Bakasura, but will go straight to Draupadi.

I think Draupadi is their last chance to get things right in Dwarkadheesh - if they pick someone mediocre, they're toast. Later, if they show Arjun spending time w/ Krishna in Dwarka, I hope they show Satyaki, since he was the 2nd most important warrior in the Pandava army after Arjun.
