The stage is set for the much-awaited mythological show, Mahabharat, produced bySiddharth Kumar Tewary.

After finalising Krishna, Arjun, Draupadi and other pivotal characters, Siddharth has now roped in talented actress Veebha Anand to essay the role of Subhadra. According to Hindu mythology, Subhadra is the Krishna's half-sister and Arjuna's wife. She is Abhimanyu's mother.

A source informs, "Veebha has been yearning for long to break away from the image of Suguna " the character from Balika Vadhu " which catapulted her to fame. After featuring in an episode of Yeh Hai Aashiqui, in which she played a prostitute, her latest character will give a different dimension to her acting chops." Veebha confirms, "Yes, I am playing Subhadra in Mahabharat. I am really excited about it and am waiting for it to hit the tube."
As far as some of the other characters are concerned, actress Shikha Singh has been finalised to play Shikhandi while Sudesh Beri has been roped in as king Drupad (Draupadi's father). Veebha is expected to commence the shoot next week.

Thanks for sharing. 😊
Sudesh Berry played Vichitraveerya in B. R. Chopra's Mahabharat serial, right?
So looks like he will be another actor who will be in both these TV versions of the epic playing different characters, after Puneet Issar (Duryodhana in B. R Chopra's show and Parshurama in this one). Is there anyone else who was in the previous one and will be in this one as well?

But Shikhandi was a guy. He was born as Shikhandini, which could be played by Shikha, but once Shikhandi swapped genders w/ a Gandharva/Yaksha, then they'd need a different actor. Actually, this would have been a good opportunity for a versatile actress to play a male role.

I like the choice of Vibha as Subhadra. Who'll be playing Hidimba? They can follow DkDM's lead and make her a beauty 😆
