this thread I shall expose some distortion showed in Star Plus Mahabharata Show
This show is not totally uncouth as Siya ke Raam as it Showed Purna Purushuttoma Shri Krishna as he is but directors made Sourav Jain to lecture very frequently which made it irritating
Let start
2/n
I liked the Draupadi's character played by Puja Sharma
She is depicted like Tigress here in this show as it should be
But It showed She taunting Duryodhana as 'Andhya sa Putra Andha' that never happened in Mahabharat
3/n
Here One of the Project Directors of Star plus Mahabharat Siddharth Kumar Tiwary categorically saying Its not remake of Original Epic but "Modern Version" of it
So u can imagine there must be distortion
I shall try to expose based on KMG,GitaPress & Vivek Debroy versions

In serial Bhisma arrived from nowhere & Ganga tells Shantanu that he is their son & Shantanu get upset as he returns
They never showed Marriage of Ganga & killing of 7 Children as they were released from their curse given by Vashistha muni & why Bhisma did not get killed
5/n
It showed Bhisma took vow because of Satyavati's taunting s
But Fact is that Bhisma took vow because of Satyavati's father's taunting
6/n
It showed Bhisma defeated only king Salwa & Bhishma was Young
Fact is Everybody mocked Bhisma as he got white hairs then Bhishma challenged everybody,defeated everybody & kidnapped all 3 princes
7/n
It showed Mahadeva appears as Mediator during Bhisma-ParashuRama war
Reality is,It was not fair fight as 7 elder brothers were helping Bhisma & ParashuRama was clearly defeated
Seeing this Amba mediated for Mahadev then Shivji blessed Amba to born as Shrikhandi in next birth
8/n
It showed Vidura stopping Dhritarashtra from being King

The reason is true that Dhritarashtra was blind and a blind man should not be king but Vidura did not decide that
In GitaPress version,Pandu did 'Digvijaya' yatra and he was made King
9/n
At time of birth of Karna Suryadev names him Karna

I mean how?
If surya deva named the baby as karna then how did adhiratha know that name?
Suryadev personally told Adhiratha?
10/n
Drona not accepting Karn as his student
Its a big fat lie.

He did. Karn learnt from him and then went to Parshuram for powerful weapons.
11/n
It is showed,Karn getting emotional upon seeing Kunti offered her lotus
Really?when did it happened?

Arjun is forced to wash Karna's feet after minor squabble during some event in honour of Kuru princes
LMAO!
This event doesn't find mention any version of the epic
12/n
Subhadra comes to Hastinapur where she sees and gets smitten by Arjun for 1st time
This happens even before burning of lac palace at Varnavat in Star plus
In the epic Arjun & Subhadra don't meet until Arjun's exile after formation of Indraprastha & He kidnapped Subhdra
13/n
Krishna sends 5 jewels through Subhadra only by which Arjuna defeats Drupad & Karna never fought Drona
LMAO!
The way Arjuna defeats Drupad no serial could show it best till today
Drupad defeated Kurus & Karna very badly
14/n
Drupad is equivalent of patriarch who detests the girl-child and thinks the birth of one is an undesirable & unwelcome event, to the extent that he curses his own daughter with a miserable life.
There is no such evidence of Drupad being an out and out misogynist in the epic
15/n
It is showed Arjuna meets Kalyavan

Reality : Arjuna never met him
16/n
In this show Draupadi taunts Karna in Swayamvara as Suta Putra
But reality is Karna could not fulfil the conditions of Swayamvara,
17/n
The amount of White wash they did on Karna is unbelievable
It was Karna who advised Duryodhana to bring Draupadi to Gambling Ground and Karna called her a whore
Details on Karna is here https://twitter.com/abhilegend000/status/1248250273157414913
18/n
They made the war as joke
They turned Bhima into comic relief
No Kripa,No Satyaki,No Kritvarma,No Bhagdatta etc. They moved from day 1 to day 10 in single episode!
they made Arjuna overdependent on Krishna
here u can see the actual bravery of Arjuna https://twitter.com/AndColorPockeT/status/1258763115212279809
19/n
This actually happened on that day of war https://twitter.com/sri9011/status/1259031988746379265
20/n
karna vadh is a big comedy that after using a powerful weapon on karna through karna was not dead still he is talking to kunthi and after karna death only all pandavas know the truth here it is completely wrong.
21/n
They actually made joke of Arjuna in Virat war where Bhishma comes to stop the war

But the reality is Ati-Maharathi Arjun defeated everybody in Kaurava army
see details here https://twitter.com/Krishan73016117/status/1249577760114094080
22/n
It has succeeded in turning the epic into a loud and over-the-top soap opera, replete with the loud background music,outlandish reaction of actors with snail-like pace of unimportant scenes, it's reliance on shock value and melodrama to attract it's audience
23/n
I am fed up now
There are many more uncouth events without any factual backing from original text
But it is our duty to expose Mythologists's versions of Epics
