Actually in Mahabharata the last rites weren't done during the war. The bodies remained in battlefield, it was after the end of the war(also death of Duryodhan,) finally the last rites was planned in StriParva

Here Duryodhan never gets to know that Karna was Kunti's son. Pandavas get to know after the war in StriParva

Then Pandavas get to know about him being Kunti's son and do his last rites. There can be no one else to do anyway

Only SriKrishna showed this actual occurrence. They also showed Lakshman and Abhimanyu war and former being killed which made Duryodhan go berserk

What makes me laugh is that if they are showing his last rites on night 17, no reason of conflict between Duryodhan and Pandavas then no one but his sons should have done it, 3 of his sons died on day 18(Susena, Chitrasena and I think Satyasena)

Haan what part you didn't understand??

OK so to answer your original question, the last rites of Karna was done by Pandavas but not during the same night as TV serials show.. It was done after the end of the war. All bodies of everyone who died were taken for last rights only after the death of Duryodhan. It was then that Kunti tells Pandavas. Duryodhan never got to know about this secret

About the bold part. There was a show called Sri Krishna which aired in DD during 90s(also aired during lockdown) that show had the scene where after the war, Pandavas were doing the last rites of their sons and Kunti asks them also to do for Karna. And then tells them the reason.

This was the only show which showed the actual happening

With the speed that I'm posting , I'm sure that I'll become a Dazzler by the end of this week but it will take a long time to reach my favorite rank ; Rockerz

ohk, you were talking about the show, I thought you were talking about some incident🤦‍♀️

Yes there they showed many things which were accurate. Like Lakshman Abhimanyu war and farmer's death agonizing Duryodhan

Although even they showed Duryodhan ordering for Vastraharan but at least they showed Karna enjoying it(Unlike the later ones). I don't think any maker would ever dare to show Karna ordering for the Vastraharan, even now people don't agree

By the way there was an opposition meeting today for 2024 elections, they have decided to contest together, have named their alliance as INDIA.

Now BJP won't be able to say INDIA ko harao 🤪

Tough days for NDA, I don't think they are returning

ZDMN was a very good attempt but aaj kal ke creators me patience nahi hai.
