I am a bit disappointed with Arjuna- can't put my finger on it yet- but from what little I saw, I was not impressed. The little boy Arjuna showed more intensity and engaged me better as a viewer. I did not see the same intensity in the grown up version. It is early days and perhaps I am speaking too soon. Also , today the gimmickry around his entry overshadowed him. Let's wait and watch!

Karna - again , I am waiting to be impressed by.


I completely agree. Arjun was really underwhelming for me. By contrast, Somya Singh - the kid Arjun really looked & played the part, while he lasted. But Shaheer - don't mean to be critical, but he just doesn't come of as an Arjun to me. I found his retorts & dialogs w/ Karna & Shakuni to be really flat, and during his confrontation w/ Karna, I couldn't find myself rooting for him one bit.

Also, his entry couldn't be more hyped. Actually, all the entries were ridiculous.

Of all the characters, I was impressed only by Karna, Nakul & Duryodhan. Maybe Sahadev will grow on me, but somehow, Dushashan, from what I've seen so far, looks more built up than he really was.

well i am not at all impressed by arjun. the guy doesnt seem to get into the character at all. actually its the fault of cvs that they have over exaggerated his character and now the responsibility on the actor has also increased a lot , but however he is giving just an average performance.

duryodhan is little better.

yudhishthir , nakul and karan are best !!!


The Arjun i.e. Shaheer shaikh is great actor,but for arjuna's character he seems bit soft natured...i hope he improvises his act as being strong one...
(though m a fan of shaheer shaikh)

Hello every1! Posting for the 1st time in this forum! Was just a silent reader b4...
Agree with the TM! Its difficult to give an opinion so early in the course of the serial but as the saying goes - 1st impression is the best one!

The one who impressed me the most - Karna ... Gr8 potential! (Karna is my one of my fav character in whole Mahabharata --- the actor better put his whole effort😃)
I felt the casting for Yudhistira n Bheema was good... both the actors fit the roles well...
Duryodhana needs to improve a lot! Especially since he has many scenes with Shakuni mama- Shakuni will certainly overshadow him if he doesn't !
Arjuna- nothing against the actor, but he still has not impressed me as the warrior Arjuna .. Mayb as lover Arjuna he will be better... He should improve too .. Not a bad actor but needs to do a better job - body language n dialogue delivery!
The younger Pandavas as such don't have much key roles to play... Both the actors did a good job...

Duryodan - He has done some villian roles in South films. Shouldn't be a tough task for him. But Duryodan is not just a villian. Needs more improvement. Looks - Perfect. Has done some hair coloring also. 😆

Nakul - I have not seen Nakul to have any role in the scripture by itself. So should be an easy task. Looks - Sweet boy and matches what Dushala says. 👍🏼
Sahadev - Same as Nakul. Not sure if there is any scope for performance. No expectations too. Looks - Being the youngest Pandava not accepted to have Old look 🥱
Yudishtr - Did his role perfect. I always expected this person to emote like a warrior while speaking Dharma and peace. Sadhu looks not accepted. Rohit did it well in the rangbhoomi. Expecting more. Looks - Eldest Pandava, yet Old look not accepted 😊
Bheem - Did his job fine. But not liking his portrayal as an all time ladoo eater. Atleast not after Adulthood please. He is supposed to be a furious demon. Looks - Cant expect to be handsome for my eyes (me not Hidimbaa 😆) Good Match for the role. May be a bit more hard muscled. 👍🏼
Arjun - Terribly upset 😭. Flat dialogues. Flat emotions. Not ferrocious, No stifness or confidence while handling the bow which he is a master of. He was hunching his back while entering the ground. Not writing off. But needs lots of improvement. Looks - Obviously good looking. He is handsome but can not be this sweet. Attitude will do the job. And did Dron have some beauty parlour too? Kid Arjun was Dusky to match his name Krishna, but Adult Arjun is Milky Fair.😕
Karna - Dint have much expectations for Karna. Dint like his look in the Promos. Dint notice him much in the Parasuram episode. But last three days its only him everywhere. Excellent performance. Stern Stiff and confident. Dialogue delivery was up to the mark too. What everyone expected out of Arjun was exhibited by Karna. I hear different opinions but am far above convinced with his performance. Whoever gets Karnas role should be lucky. Highest scope for performance. Aham did a very good job. A handsome adult making you feel 'Oh my poor Baby' is not easy at all. Highly impressed. Keep it up Aham. Looks - Awesome, Handsome. Might have been little broader.
Ranking on Looks
1 Karna - Arjun
3 Nakul - Dury
5 Bhim
6 Yudi
7 Sahadev

I mentioned this in the Kaurava AT - Arpit right now is doing Duryodhan's role fine, except for one thing. Whoever acts Duryodhan is supposed to make the viewers hate him. This is not the case here. For instance, in BRC, I absolutely hated watching Puneet Issar - he made Duryodhan look really revulsive. But it's not been the case in DBSK - where Amit Pachori played the part, nor here, where Arpit Ranka does. Neither of them were turn-offs, and they need to be, in order to portray it properly.

For instance, Raj Shah, the kid who played Dushashan, is cute, but on screen, he's so rude that one can't stand him. Looks like Nirbhay Wadhwa, the adult Dushashan, will deliver on the revulsiveness. But Shakuni is a permanent comic, while Duryodhan is like me - sarcastic and snide to the core 😆 Arpit really needs to work on delivering the 'I can't stand him' image.
