There is the scene I mentioned in SP's version of recent Mahabharta. Now before you say it is not true Mahabharta, my stand is that there are hundreded of versions of Mahabharta and Vyasa might be the one who wrote it first but I take every author's version seriously. People write it with their different perspective and I believe in celebrating all versions.

No version of MB has this scene. Sp s MB was complete and utter crap as far as authenticity is concerned. I suggest you read the Critical edition of MB by Bibek destroy that is the most authentic one as of now

This is absolutely untrue. Please check the text.

Which text are you talkign about? With Mahabharta, there is so many popular stories which are never there in Vyasa's version. I gre up with BR chopra's version on television which was also very different. In my adulthood I came across Rajagopalchari, BORI CE, KMG (Vyasa version), yuganta, palace of illusion (Draupadi's perspective), Mrityunjay (Karna's perspective) then some south versions are also completely different. So I started believing that we should read all versions and enjoy different perspectives instead of fixating on one TRUE version.

I think i cleared my stand. I am very well aware of all versions and their limitations. I repect whoever wrote for TV also. There are many scenes which were very well written. I enjoy every version of it. Now it is your opinion if you dont want to accept it.

KMG version, BORI CE do not have the scene. Nor does Southern recension

Rajagopalachari is not a version. It's a retelling.

PoI, Mrityunjaya, Yuganta especially are not versions at all. They are more or less modern authors writing from imagination. To ascribe dialogue made up by Chitra Banerjee in rhe 1980s to real people who lived in Iron Age is rather weird.

Heck, it's like me writing a scene for the characters and claiming it's also valid.

place of illusion and mritunjya are fictions . First, learn to differentiate. You say you have read Kmg and ce can you quite from either of the text scene where Krishna reprimands draupadi? Well if you would have tried to read either text carefully you would know that Krishna reprimanding draupadi is nothing but fanfiction

You people really need to read actual text instead of blindly believing what tv shows feed you . Krishna never reprimands draupadi you know why? because draupasi never wanted revenge

Please watch what you are saying. What do you mean blindly believing? Which TV show? How are you sure I was quoting from some TV show? You need to get down from that high horse!

What BS. Hum se poocho yaar. I’ll tell you the stories of my ancestors. The gold and all material belongings they buried overnight in a house they never returned to. Leaving with the bare minimum. Homeless overnight. Stories of men killing their own women to avoid them getting raped. Ask anyone who has family that were affected in the partition and you’ll find many parallels. Many of us can empathise and are outraged that it took this long for the KP stories to come out but also relieved that finally their story is out. Trolls will always exist on both sides of the political spectrum, doesn’t mean they make up the majority.

Those who are not go through this situation, pain never never understand. Just want to show our side sorry.

No, if you are quoting from a text you need to give citations buddy . I can assure you if you ever open a single authentic text in your MB and search you would not find a single Krishna reprimanding Draupadi.
