That's exactly it. I find some parts of the story alien to what is Mahabharata as we know it. Also the actors and their respective interactions dominate focus over the poetry/textual material, there's more to Mahabharata than plain emotion and drama. At the base of it this serial really is just like a fancier and more lavish version of another typical star plus drama with all its materialistic, vain and superficial inclinations hiding behind the pretext of a epic historical tale of Bharat with its amazing complex of grand characters of pre-Kali yug era. Instead we have some characters presented as your identifiable daily character out of the ordinary tv soaps that are here just dressed up different, more elaborately, surrounded by rich interiors n expansive landscapes.
