Every time I read Mahabharata, I think about what an epic story that is. It would have made an excellent fantasy series on part with Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings - if not better. I always picture Varunastra as that scene with Arwen summoning water as the galloping horses. I enjoyed Baahubali so much because it was connected to Indian mythos. I genuinely appreciate the attempt to make an epic series based on Hindu myth.
But at the same time, I have a fear - the VFX is like a decade old and doesn't integrate into the film realistically. I hope it's not so jarring as to ruin the film. And gosh - I hope the story is great.

Ranbir is a decent actor, Alia doesn't have much to do in trailer, Mouni looks good and has good screen presence. I don't know why people are saying on SM it's giving everything away... It's not! Excited to know the story.
