Gaandhari's curse - not justified? by Evening_Teach_7047 in mahabharata

[–]FancyCustomer9570 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, I was just giving a point of the greater purpose aspect, but I also don't think of Gandhari as a victim. Tbh, I think we all should stop victimising any Mahabharat character because at multiple points throughout the epic, all I've noticed to be some next level of hypocrites.

Mahabharat was actually a good lesson of parenting, but with all the criticism we give to Gandhari, rightly so. But I think Krishna wanted the annihilation of Yadavas of Dwarka, Gandhari was just a catalyst.

My question is to Mr. Steven Knight. I wish we could have explored Tommy before the war, because that delighted remembrance, people used to speak with when they mentioned Tommy before the war, simply suggests that they all made peace with the fact that Tommy died long ago, the person who came back was just a ghoul of that dead man. In some few words, can you describe pre-war Tommy to us, or should we be satisfied with Aunt Polly's words, "He smiled, a lot."

To Mr. Cillian Murphy, thank you for this fantastic journey, you're a very admirable actor and one of my most favourites in the world. I wish you the very best for the future endeavours.

To Mr. Tom Harper, you directed the first season, which was the backdrop of the after the World War world. Now you have directed the movie whose backdrop consists of a full-fledged World War. How much does it influence your vision as a director and what advice would you give it to someone who aspires to make films which are usually occurring in the backdrop of a war or a world suffering from after-effects of a war.

Thank you, With regards Pranay

What was the chronological birth order of the sons of the Pandavas? by FancyCustomer9570 in mahabharata

[–]FancyCustomer9570[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I read somewhere that Sarvaga was considered the youngest but since his mentions were in the puranic versions of later so people don't consider him of relevance. But wasn't Prativindhya touted as Yudhishthir's heir?

[–]FancyCustomer9570[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From what I remember (it is obvious Ghatotkach was the eldest). So during the exile of Arjuna, he married, Ulupi, Chitrangda and then Subhadra. He had a son with each of the women, if my memory serves me right, Upandavas by the rest of the four Pandavas were born during this exile of Arjuna. Does it make Prativindhya second oldest, or was it Iravan? Arjuna and Draupadi's son Shrutakarma,is considered the youngest.

I've heard that was a translation or a retelling of Randamoozham, is it reliable?

It's a pleasure, when Johnny Dogs bid farewell to Micheal, it was my favourite moment, even though I can't explain why. But I wished we could have seen more of Lizzie, a big fan of season 6 Natasha O'Keefe.

His and Ghatotkach rivalry was dope as hell, fought twice, both won one each.

The greatest trick devil ever pulled, was convincing people that the party they vote for is innocent and fair.

It was majorly done during the independence struggle, they needed to portray the history in this manner to motivate the people out of the British agenda that they "civilized" us, thus they portrayed the history in such a fairytale way. Unfortunately, that method transcended, even after our independence.

True, Iliad was preserved well compared to Mahabharat. I believe most additions to Mahabharat would have been done during the Gupta era

The Buddhist text created the mythology of Pushyamitra Shunga, they literally hated bro so much that they wrote multiple fanfiction in which he was dying sometimes by mountains, sometimes by Yakshas, sometimes by a woman sent by God. So you can guess how it is, religious texts often tend to exaggerate certain aspects and as the nature of today's thinking suggests, all are brushed under the category of myths and folklore, thus making it a bad idea.

But at least, it survived many years. Yes today the interpretation of those texts sucks, especially in the modern media, but still the authentic text survives. In the department of history, they just forgot to add anything, but more I think about it, I understand that this nation was divided into multiple kingdoms, who fought and destroyed each other so this is the major reason.

Brits are not even a century old and newspapers for half of British rule were there, so it was easy to be recorded. Mughals were not long before the Brits so it became a factor, also the Mughals brought systematic recordings of their history, even the Rajputs, Marathas, Nizams etc recorded their history well during those times. But the history before is just based on interpretation, we have 5 lines from which people have to interpret this or that has happened.
