Yeah... I downloaded Bibek Debroy's translation. Thankfully it has lesser no. of pages than KMG. BD's version has near about 3500 pages. I am hopeful itna toh padh hi lungi 😆

How are you doing?

And I think I am the only one who actually liked Shaheer as Arjun😆😆 I agree in few emotional scenes he looked bad....but then the script was pathetic too. Arjun wasn't that much of a crybaby I think. Overall I think Shaheer did a pretty good job with whatever he was provided.

Honestly speaking I can't find fault in any of the cast members. I LOVED the whole cast & to me it looked like everyone suited their roles perfectly. I haven't watched BR Chopra's Mahabharat, so can't compare the 2 in terms of performance....but lookswise I like SP MB a lot more. If I think alternatively, I can not replace any of them with other actors. The only guy who was replaceable was the guy who played Sahadev I think. I didn't find anything impressive in him, but then he wasn't given much footage either. I like the cast as it is.

& oh! I LOVE Parth - Madhav ❤️❤️ Shaheer is as much a part of this Parth - Madhav duo as Saurabh 😆😆 I love both of them 😆

Ik I'm being biased but after Krishna I loved Arjun and then Karn❤️. So don't blame me🤣😆😵

@red- Exactly none of them can be replaced for me, everyone was perfect. My grandfather was watching the old MB on DD the other day and he asked me to watch it with him. Trust me all I was doing was trying to find flaws in every character and picturization. Moreover,I couldn't connect neither enjoy it as I enjoyed the old Ramayan and the only reason I could think of now is SP's MB holds a special place in my heart❤️.

P.S Coming to Sahdev's character even I found him distinct in the beginning. I guess it was due to his weird wig which didn't suited him at all. Infact his mukut(crown) was too chamakdar,do notice it!! While towards the end when the actor's hair grew long it looked okayy too me..And Sahdev did nothing except making fun of Bheem & Nakul, getting purabhaas vibes and also killing the real ludo oops chausar master Shakuni🤣

They aired the promo kyaa???

Yes. Aaj subah dekha maine.

It was the one of Draupadi's cheer haran and she's saying, "tumne meri vivashta dekhi hai. Ab main tumhara vidwansh dekhungi.."

After the Pandavas went for exile, Duryodhan, Shakuni & Karn come up with a plan to humiliate the Pandavas further & depress them by boasting their own prosperity in front of them. They plan to camp nearby the place Pandavas were living & show off their royal opulence to them. BUT! Duryodhan being Duryodhan, got into fight with the Gandharvas over a lake & the Gandharvas attacked them 😆😆 The Gandharvas defeated the army accompanying Duryodhan & also Shakuni Karn etc & Dury himself and they imprisoned Duryodhan. When Yudhistir got to know about this, he instructed Bheem & Arjun to help Duryodhan (because helping the helpless is dharma & Duryodhan is helpness right now ). Bheem & Arjun reluctantly complied & came to fight the Gandharvas. When they slayed hundreds of Gandharvas. When the Gandharavas saw they might lose, they took hold of Duryodhan & disappeared in sky😆😆 But Arjun had celestial weapons & could even fight with hidden enemies (shabdvedi vaan), so he defeats them anyway & freed the Duryodhan & co and Yudhistir let them go.

Arjun humiliated Karn by upping him in archery & winning over the same Gandharvas who had defeated Karn & Yudhistir humiliated Duryodhan by letting him leave (i.e, showing generosity). So Duryodhan jo karne nikle the....uska ulta karke wapas aaye 😆😆

well in that case they could have just asked their kingdom back from dury in place of freeing him from gandharvas

initially when i saw the promo i thought shaheer was going to play nakul😆. he was quite lean n young looking in navya. i was like arjun is going to look so young. Also both the lead actors were not good actors in navya. But when i saw shaheer with SRJ as kirishna i understood the casting. Shaheer -sourabh have the best aesthetic chemistry. they both were wonderful as Parth -Madhav. The scene where Arjun sees Rukmani painting morpankhs was says that dialogue of him thinking that morpankhs looked beautiful to him because they were on madhavs mukut. he could make us feel madhavs presence even though he was not there in the room. Shaheer did improve tremendously as an actor in MB, by the end of the show he got his voice modulation right too. I agree that they made Arjun too much of a cry baby who cried at everything.

Ive watched BRC MB as a kid and now as its airing ive seen 1-2 episodes when they are in vanvas the screenplay and effects are better here. the dialogue delivery better in ⭐️MB . arjun -yudi almost look similar there i get confused as to who is who😆. Abhimanyu looks like an adult. Acting ka i dont know why people say BRC is better. maybe i need to watch few previous episodes. i want to know how is the chemistry between Madhav parth there. ⭐️ MB they had good chemistry though they underutilised it, some madhav parth scenes were given to krishna-draupadi . For me Madhav parth chemistry is important. they were soulmates
