Guys I am personally a karn lover
And Krishna lover as mentioned I don't like Bori
Where Mahabharata changes
I mean the whole essence of Mahabharata is lost

It is like a khicdi of all versions and they removed the interesting parts this is not the Mahabharata we hear off
Rather one would like to stick on one part like kmg



As after reading ur answer (amrita di on quora)

For me at least like u said in that version pandavas kill nishadha which is quite questionable

And karn's digvijaya is not mentioned whoa
And that is one Dhaka ...what
... Aaahhh

Shri Krishna doesn't cover sun at jayadhratha vadh

Hi, in the BORI edition, the 'interpolations' i.e. the later myths that were added to make the epic even more controversial are removed (Draupadi Vastraharana is one of the added parts. It did not occur.)

Then what is left of Mahabharata if draupadi is not insulted ...

Whoa ...

Coming to the difference in incidents, here are some of them:

1.) Draupadi doesn't reject Karna in Critical Edition, as the rejection appears in only a few manuscripts out of thousands, that are available. In BORI's Critical Edition, Karna doesn't participate at all.


Now what is this ...in r gopalachari and kmg its mentioned


2.) Draupadi's prayer to Lord Krishna is not mentioned.

Draupadi doesn't pray to Krishna this is not Mahabharata



3.) Lord Krishna saving Draupadi from Durvasa with a grain rice is removed.




Another humanisation of god



4.) Urvashi's story of cursing Arjun is not mentioned.

So how does arjun gets lesson for using women

5.)Karna's Digvijay has been dismissed by BORI as later addition.


Dismissed wow

6.) Karna being killed by deceit(as is popularly believed), has been changed to a fair death of Karna by BORI(after years of research).

Years of research by whom

How

Why

What

Are researchers not westerners ??

Pro pandavas

Anti karn anti Krishna ...

7.)Lord Krishna hiding the Sun with Sudarshan Chakra for killing Jaydrath has been removed as later addition.

Hehe by this time any Mahabharata fan would reject bori


Just because pandavas burn nishada doesn't make them negative


Undoubtedly bori is a biased version

No matter by so eminent scholars but

Removing draupadis insult

And even event of Karns life

As a staunch supporter of Karn

Like any other fan

I reject bori this khichdi of Mahabharata


And amrita di u r so chilled out here

Hope I have not offended you

Just stating facts which are not mentioned


:)

Hi Jyotsna,
Replying to ur scrap n PM here itself...😊
'Blast from past'!! Not at all...😆
I have commented on many people's answers where I have seen glaring factual errors n yours may have been one of them...I guess that is wat Quora is for...For sharing knowledge n correcting wat is wrong...Right?
And usually my comments are in accordance with the answer...😉


Hmmm comments thanks for them comments thanks again for them beautiful comments lol


Nonetheless...I got a question about Vrishaketu yesterday...n while answering I found out he is mentioned in KMG in Bhishma Parva. I had included wat Lakshmi had translated in Sanskrit...but I got a doubt. And hence wanted to clear it.

I dont like to answer about topics about which I dont know enough...and wen I realize my mistake, I immediately go back n edit my answer with correct facts...😛 Hence I am bothering Lakshmi so much today...

Lakshmi is knowledgeable about Sanskrit. If she can clarify, I'll edit the answer again. People who read Quora should not be misled by half-learned answers...😉

Yes like half knowledge of kmg version as well naa

Just noticed the voting percentages in the thread poll...
And...zero votes for Other (so far).
Looks like everybody has forgotten about Kekta maiya's Mahabharat!! 😆😆😆

I'm not saying that should be the worst or anything, but to see zero votes for Other...I really thought someone would've voted for it!🤣

I voted for SPK, btw 😊

I think quoting from other sites is against rules of IF. I had done that myself before n got bombarded with warnings...😆
So be careful...

Secondly...well, not everyone sees the epic like u do...😉
Some read it like a divine script...others treat it as history. Some want it for entertainment n thus enjoy scandalous incidents...while others want to find out wat all are later additions. Different people have different view of the epic.

Some love to whine...'Oh...Draupadi rejected my Karna...she is such a bitch'...n 'Oh Karna killed my Abhimanyu...He is horrible'...😆...etc, etc. For such people...KMG, BORI, Gita Press Edition make no difference...😆 So, no matter how much evidence u provide, that Draupadi's rejection was later addition or Karna never killed Abhimanyu...they will stick to their whining.

But there are many others who love to dig into the authenticity of the various facts. If u were a regular member of Mahabharat forum, you may have seen many such people.

So if u dismiss BORI as khichdi bcoz it doesnt favour Karna much or bcoz it is 'pro-Pandava'...then it's your choice. None of us can force you.
For some of us it is the perfect Chicken Biriyani with all the right ingredients...😉

I personally prefer BORI, especially after reading about the way they have researched for it. Ofcourse it is not perfect...it still has many incidents like Draupadi's Vastraharan which are interpolations. But I guess, if they bring out a second edition, they might remove more such incidents.
Oh by the way...I am no staunch Pandava lover...😆

I am 😆 after reading ur comments after each point. U need to read up a bit more..No not BORI, but u may atleast read KMG completely...just a friendly suggestion... ofcourse it depends on your choice. You may read wat u want...

Ekta Kapoor's Kahaani Humaari Mahabharat Ki was poorly executed but it had been factually correct...more or less. The actors were Ghisa-Pita faces of K-serials but still it had actually followed the epic...unlike Siddharth Tewary who has done phd in creative liberty. 😆

The thing abt siddhart's one is 1. Amazing actors 2.portrayal of that era's mindset. This things attractive feature for any histo or mytho show. If the presentation is not good none gonna appreciate. Lyk srsly tattoo on drau with gown and pandavs looking lyk greek warriors and worst of dialogue delivery i hv ever seen. Then next comes the story... usually people who watch for fun neva gonna go for boring nd irritating portrayal. They will go for interesting portrayal which by chance SidT have done better except tge paundrak one😆 so in this way ekta maiyyas one is👎🏼
