Mahabharata is a billion times better and more interesting than Game of Thrones and Lord of the rings. I wonder when some Indian would do justice to this great Epic and make a high quality version for the whole world.
I was thinking the same thing! I'm beginning to understand why they call the Mahabharata an epic, it is totally epic!
Mahabharata is far more complicated tha GOT or lord of the rings. It has got many storylines going simultaneously. Its an epic. I am a huge fan of GOT but Mahabharata is such a big epic it takes decades to completely understand and read different versions of it.
Our people don't have time from directing Naagin,Chuidal,Thantrik and big boss to put there head together to create an epic tale like Maharashtra.If they are willing can't they be an another 250 crore baahubali .
@@1lazypen We're too busy making Gangs of Hindostan, we can't come up with another Mahabharata
I agree. It would be hard for people unfamiliar with The Mahabharata to follow all the characters and storylines, BUT it could be done. It would have a wider audience if it were in English though.
Peter Brooks made a very nice adaptation of The Mahabharata in 1989, so it is possible. I believe the most important part would be to get the best actors in the world to play the roles. The Brooks version succeeded because the actors were all excellent. The cast was pretty cool because they were from all over the world. In theory, this makes sense because The Mahabharata is supposed to be a foundation story of humanity, not just India (or so I’ve read).
This is one of the greatest writing known to humans. I wish someone make a series with production quality similar to Game Of Thrones.
True
Why not an anime series
@Ashwin kumar he is talking about game of thrones level (quality)
because bajrang dal would burn buses if they make the light scene where kunti receives child from sun .
@Ashwin kumar manga was better
I think a high budget anime can be made under Indian and Japanese production like the Ramayan anime movie(1992) but with better animation and mindblowing action sequences. Anime has a very good market in the world right now. and if it's made good it can be one of the best anime of all time.
Yess close to attack on Titan or more than that.
But Indians have very fragile emotions one thing can result in riots in the nation and national outrage on wrong depiction of mahabharat that's why nobody is having that courage to take this epic and make anime.
That director who made all those Lord of the Rings movies is the ideal person to take on the Mahabaratha project for the big screen.
Actually we have potential and money to make it in an epic anime but companies like green gold will only focus on khota bheem for money and ease.
Actually Akira Toriyama creater of Dragon Ball Zee was to create Ramayana series but there was objection from India that foreigners should not be brought to make such religious interpretation.
Fun Fact: The First Alliance with the Kingdom of Gandhar (search Kandahar, Afghanistan) is in current day Afghanistan. The Mahabharat was part of the real, true India/Bharat, and not the sliced up cake that is Pakistan, India, Bangladesh. It stretched from Afghanistan all the way to Bangladesh and up from the Himalayas (Nepal, Bhutan) down to South India!
Gandhara is not Kandahar. It is North Western Punjab around Rawalpindi/Taxila and Peshawar valley of KPK. Its capital was Pushkalavati (Modern day Charsadda). Takshashila was a city state surrounded by Gandhara state for most of its existence but had been a part of Gandhara on and off.
Gandhar is the area around the Kabul river.
Eastern Afghanistan and north western Pakistan.
Kandahar isn't part of gandhar
There was no India back then, it’s a name given by the British Rulers to that part of the world after their rule! Don’t confuse Bharat as India! India was the name given to that part of the land that the Britishers had left after they divided Pakistan and Bangladesh! Before the Britishers, there was no India! Stop saying it is India! If you claim it was India then every other ruler who ruled the land can call it what they named it when they conquered India! Stop trying to glorify the inherited British name !
Quick Reference for your Indian name:
The name "India" is originally derived from the name of the river Sindhu (Indus River) and has been in use in Greek since Herodotus (5th century BCE). The term appeared in Old English as early the 9th century and reemerged in Modern English in the 17th century.
Further information: India (Herodotus)
India was the lower Indus basin in Herodotus's view of the world.
The English term is from Greek Ἰνδική / Indikē (cf. Megasthenes' work Indica) or Indía (Ἰνδία), via Latin transliteration India.[2][3][4]

@Rohan Ghaisas .. remember to stop hugging India’s neighbouring countries as India because it never was part of India ! Go learn the history before you geographically claim something as yours when it’s not true!
Learn facts not fiction!
India was always called India but not by Indians themselves. “India” was the word Europeans use for the subcontinent, itself borrowed from the Persian word “Hind”. Europeans dropped the ‘H’ because both Greek and Latin have no use for ‘h’ sound. They fancied suffixing “ia” to names of countries - Italia, Britannia, Russia and so forth.
Indians, while always acutely aware of their distinctness with respect to rest of the world, did not think of themselves as nation in the modern sense. Probably, constant invasions, changing borders, short lived dynasties exhausted them that they stopped bothering with the idea of a nation or country. Pointless, the names they gave themselves never stuck.
Even centuries of Muslim rule did not change that.
The Brit came along and yelled out "Hey! You Indian!” and the guy looked back asking "You talking to me?”.
During lockdown , I started watching Mahabharta . Before I used to think it's boring and lengthy, but once I started watching oh man what a story . War , politics, love , hatred , betrayal, devotion it has everything . Its truly an EPIC ..
Just remember to be educated in today’s politics and issues to make a difference or even will a difference. Otherwise it wouldn’t do justice to watch these as they’d merely be distractions and we wouldn’t want to cheapen Sanskrit (telling myself too)
Thank god u watched atleast without hearing distracted version of leftist
And Suspense

Yes it is. You can see every thing in Mahabharata just like We see lord Krishna in its Celestial form where we can see entire universe in his single form. I have watched many times but still I can't found that story is old. Normally film scripts became old with passage of time but epics remain ever fresh each time
The greatest story ever. And has influenced many cultures around the world one of of them is my home town in Bali (Indonesia).
True. One book that defines a whole civilization.
Hey Bali people
Loads of Love from Hindu India ❤🇮🇳

This is not story this is history of india . I am from hastinapur
@@GauravKumar-ue6gx then What bro‽ This is just an incident!!!!
@@unknownperson6487 is everything is incident . I am a NCC student and my firing camp in vidur kuti place where vidur live
Sorry guys don't get triggered, this is my perspective and I don't believe in magic, god and stuffs like that. I m an atheist, may be this could be real as a story, it's characters , places etc but it does not fit in my scientifically mind.
By the way it's amazing, beautiful, mind blowing, bravo....
@wInd0ws XD science hasn't developed yet it has its limitations but science always supports the facts and the theories rather dogmas Or belief system. Thats why old theories replaced with new one as science always accepts it's mistakes and supports the truth, that's the beauty of science. Even Darwins theory was having too many faults as he wasn't knew about DNAs that time but rather scientists like De Vries , Richard Dawkins etc corrected many of it's mistakes.
The results always come there through debates, researches and evidences.
6:26 A correction here. Bhishma did not kidnap Amba, Ambika and Ambalika. He won them by winning the challenge given in their swayamwar on behalf of Vichitraveer.
it was sort of a kidnapping because bhishma had vowed to remain celibate and he went to the syamwar in place of his step bro's . if i remember correctly amba became the reason for bhishma's death as she was born as shikhandi who caused bhishma's death
It feels like a kidnapping. Didn't you hear? One of the princesses was in love with someone else.
@@ravantheoghacker863it might not be technically kidnap but taking away an unwilling woman amounts to the same. Karma came back in the form Sikandi who caused the death of Bhishma. Bhishma made few mistakes in his life, one of them is this “ kidnapping “. The other pabha is not doing anything about Draupadi’s unrobing and being a silent witness to this atrocity in spite of her lament to him.
Beauty of our epic is everyone is laid bare.
@@Earlytorise89It's not a kidnapping. The suyamvara is an event where bride chooses her husband, typically by some contest.
If she already chose the husband why did't she inform her father and arrange the marriage without conducting suyamwara. It's a cheating to invite the kings from all over the world even though she already chose the husband beforehand.
How Bhisma is supposed to know this love affair. He thought this was a genuine contest and won all the kings including her lover. When he got to know this love affair he respected the bride's wish and allowed her to marry her lover.
It's not Bhisma's fault that her lover couldn't accept her.

If only they would make a series on Mahabharata in this day and time,

Nakulan and Sahadevan are soooo forgotten in the story that the narrator himself didn't mention their names at 24:02
Thank you so so much! Finally one audiobook of the Mahabarata in english and well explained! Thanks a lot!
This story is so powerful it made me start crying
I couldn't help myself.
Incredible

Sir, i am a hindu but even when i step out of my shoes and look at this text from an outsider's perspective, it just never ceases to amaze me that something this complex and thought provoking was written 4000 years ago.
It's the *background score* actually. This video quality is supreme.

@@MsBurnitup not really...even when I was reading mahabharata...there are lot of moments that made me cry, got me goosebumps
This is an incredibly helpful video! My only critique is that you should list their names and spellings because it's hard for those of us who have never read it before and/or are not used to Sanskrit words to know how they are spelled. I'm learning this book for a class
Jasmine Kaltenbach ,true that but think aim of this video is just to make people get a basic idea of Mahabharata..and in 25 mint video its a bit difficult to spell the names..but someone able to upload subtitles will be doing a great job..!!..

This is not a story.
This is the real History of Akhand Bharat.

Can we appreciate the illustrations? they are incredible!
Bhagavan bless you, truly...what a wonderful seva for Sanatana Dharma. Concise, modern, poignant, clear, and artistic. This gets our generation engaged in and proud to share our Dharma. Hari Om.
great one
Heyy we’re fb friends
Narration is not accurate, artwork is great.
@@ancientcivilization9245 I agree. But I will still say Artwork is uninformed and funny. They have made the Hastinapur Palaces look like Palaces of Alladin and all other stories in Arabian Nights.
Tremendous effort ! Commendable result ! If only every Indian knew the true worth of the treasure kept in our own rich cultural heritages. How immensely proud we should feel for being Indians !
I love Mahabharata instinctively, having brooded and lost myself in the many books on it in my childhood. Krishna, I only began to understand and love several years later.
I don't know in which precise way it appeals to the viewers over here, but it certainly is a narrative which inspires one to the heavens and lofty ideals.
Great.
Who else got goosebumps!! Omg... I need a movie made out of this
great work, congratulations! Hope to see subtitles soon for reading
You got it.
Indians should collab with the Japanese, because they would 'get' the cultural/philosophical significance of little details for a Netflix anime series.
WORLD CLASS ILLUSTRATION & NARRATION. Love this! Great work. Thanks a lot! ❤️🙂
Mahabharat in English!!!
Great work. Thanks a lot.
Some people think that the mahabharata, is a myth! Its not! That is there histroy! There are things that the people at the time didnt understand! And wrote down what they saw and hear! To the best of there understanding! But it wasnt a lie, or a myth! It was humen histroy! We should thank them for sharing there histroy with us, and the world! Thank you!
Thankyou, I would never have attempted to understand this as it was too complicated for me. This makes it easy to get. The hand moving really fast although is a distraction. Great work anyway!
Great stories. I also hear many words pronounced differently and not being a native speaker must listen more closely.
Never mess in family affairs. I am lost now

The real GAME OF THRONE...the game of HASTINAPUR
Shut up kid don't compare this with that vulgar series. It can be misinterpreted by others
Game of thrones*
What is wrong with you people? What is the need to compare everything with the west? We have our own place. They have their own. Stop this madness.
Mahabharat is an epic of anicent India, written centuries ago by the many a wise rishis. You can't seriously compare it with something like game of thrones. It is a thousand times better and deserves a separate position.
At the same time you cannot discredit the value of game of thrones, or better, A song of ice and fire, the series of books it is based on. I have read the whole series and to realize that all of that came from the mind of a single person is unbelievable. Do you even know how detailed and intricate the scope of the book is? Can you even write a story? Who are you to judge?
@@manas905 Valar Morghulis
I agree with you but I must tell you that, GRRM has modified and taken references from various Incidents in History like the battle of roses, and various myths as well

Why isn't anyone making a high budget show on it, it's so epic
Amazing work! I've been wanting to read/understand Mahabharat, but it's always been intimidating. Your series makes it so much more palatable, and easy to comprehend. Thank you for this and I look forward to the stories to come!
Please finish the remaining episodes of Maharbharata series. I used these videos to teach kids and they loved it. Your effort is not in vain, it's reaching millions! Please keep up the great work of God. Namaste.
Mahabharata is not a story, it's real event, it's history.
I watched this on TV and came back here to watch again. Really beautiful!!
the lady's voice didnt appear to me to have the same effects as the gentleman's voice.
Fun fact:- at 15:16 the kingdom of Gandhar which is mentioned is the present day Kandahar, Afgahnistan. I dont remember exactly but someone cursed that there will never be peace in the kingdom of Gandhar (or Kandahar as known presently). I dont know how much its true but one thing for sure is that Afgahnistan and surrounding countries are always in chaos. ☹️
interesting. I'm quite intersted on all religions (even if from a purely "those are nice stories") point of view and wanted to read this. thank you !
It's cultural. Hinduism is a way of life and this culture has a pluralistic view of faith, not religious.

Tons of thanks to this channel for such unique and tremendous work....
Am so happy to know Mahabharata in such an easy and pleasant way.....
i hope you get a good reward for your hard efforts.you are doing a great service by spreading it in an enjoyable and understandable manner
Your idea to make this in English was commendable. Because not every Indian knows hindi.
AWESOME WORK EPIFIED..!!
Eagerly waiting for more AWESOMNESS..!!
I have always wanted to know about Mahabharatam but most of the time I was told that it's a huge story and there is no way I can understand it. But I must say, that you have made it so well, interesting, awesome and so easy to understand that I plan to watch this over and over again and even share it to everyone I know because I just loved it! Hope to watch the next (2nd) CZcams episode of Mahabharata. Much much love from Malaysia. I'm so happy to be whom I am.
Wow! I really enjoyed it!! Loved it! Being a 21st century kid, I hardly took interest in the traditional form of Mahabharata or Ramayana, but, I loved it in this format, short precise, passionate, correct.
I see a lot of differences between what I have learnt till now through various Mahabharata series and this episode yet I find it interesting as the way of presentation is very good.....thanks for the effort
This is what I need. I've always been afraid of the book because if it's length and complexity
This is an enchanting production . Thank you. 🙏
keep up the good work... I love it the way you interpreted the epic story of Mahabharata...☺
Undoubtedly the best way to learn about Mahabharata!!! Thank you so much guys and keep em coming!!! :)
Now this is what I think a definitive source for subtle understanding of our epic. It's brief , well complimented with names of characters and ya the painting that's so characteristic of ur videos again steals the show. Commendable... And thanks
Brilliant and B-e-a-u-tiful!! I wish I had seen this earlier...
This Channel ( This Series in particular) should have 1000 times as many views as it already has.
Just amazing.... Picture discription with narration.. is exactly what makes it interesting. Probably 25min is a breath taking number so a single episode of 4mins will keep the audience coming back
Just so amazing very well told and illustrated made it so easy for me to understand as a new learner of this culture I know it’s says 5 yrs ago but keep up the great work my friend ✌🏾🙏🏾 from south Texas
Such a beautiful storytelling and amazing sketches ♥️
Always a great classic , brilliant and eternal story of all 🙏
BEAUTIFUL JUST BEAUTIFUL ATTEMPT TO TELL AN EPIC STORY IN A SIMPLE WAY.CONGRATULATIONS EPIFIED.
I love the first episode so much. It's so enchanting ❤️
Brilliant ! i love the drawing aspect ..wonderful.
Imagine cinematising it with the budget of Game of thrones.
The sketches... The narration.... Simply wow!
Thank you for making this. It changed my perspective of the world.
Mahabharata in Short with full detail what a Fantastic Job .....
Wow...this is the best!!
Incredible. No words to define your efforts. Thanks a lot.
Thanq so much for these videos.. I Scratched the Entire Internet to find something concise and Comprehensive in order to understand this Great Epic.. Thanx Once again
This is just tremendous work....Loved it to core
25 minutes went by so quickly! Beautifully done! Kudos!
I am glad I´ve visited this story. I am in a process of building a fantasy world for my future novels and I decided that one of the main regions will be inspired by indian culture which has so great heritage and history. And this is "diamond" honestly.
This is exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks alot for these videos.Feels good to learn about the great Indian epics
Best video seen ever.....
Man your video gave me answers to the thousands of questions I had while watching the series on tv. Big thank you !
I can't thank in words for the great work and efforts you have made...Highly appreciable.
No discrimination here, but I personally feel that male voiceover is the best here and the female voiceover clearly seems to be highly ineffective than that of the male.
Would be glad if the same male voiceover is used for all such full videos.
U guys just rock... Best thing on youtube
Most beautiful thanks a lot kids should be shown this to know our culture and heritage
Absolutely brilliant.
This is incredible, wonderful work
This is exactly what I was looking for❤️❤️❤️ thank you so muchh
Why, why can't you watch the mahabharata series of B.R chopra which is much more accurate then this. For foreigners it makes sense but for you I don't understand whats stopping you from watching B.R Chopra master piece.
@@ancientcivilization9245 There are 300 versions of ramayan and 100 versions of mahabharat each telling a bit of a different story.
Hindustism is not a religion of black and white, right and wrong. It shows the grey area of everything and teaches you wisdom in life.
That's why it's called sanatan dharam.
Please don't make it into rulebook and restricts its beauty and make it like other religion like islam, christianity,etc.
Feeling blessed. Mahabharata is doubt the greatest epic of all time.
Beautifully and concisely explained. Thank you for this amazing narration. 🙏💐🙏
9:44 Parshuram gave up?
":D Dude vowed to never give up from the battle.
The trick he used was to make Bhishm go back so that none will give up and the tiresome battle will stop.
Atleast thats what i heard
Greatly admire your work to bring out such beautiful content 😍
This is so good, I can keep watching it all day long. Thank you. Sucks that I found this channel so late.
only if someone put half a budget of GOT, this will be indeed undisputed storyline ever known to mankind
Narration is superb but what amazing sketching skills.
This is probably the best video I've ever seen... How wonderfully u have made it
Absolutely beautiful
Wow Wow Amazing work of graphics, explanation was lucid. Laudable work done. Excellent
I felt drawing at times couldn't catch the narration and after aometime we wait for the pic to be fully drawn and by the time Narration moves on to another.
Wating for a episode on Krishna too, I have seen the intro, 1 & 2 part. Eagerly waiting for other episodes... hope to see it soon... I want to tank your entire Team for coming up with such a beautiful thoughts of narrating story.. I wish u guys more likes & views. Good luck team :-)

thank-you epified,,, so much of information detailed... thanks a lot !
As a huge fan of this epic, I feel that it tried to convey topics about child grooming, extramarital affairs, rapes, sexual harassment, and much more... if considered in today's concept and so on... and I know that this epic story does exactly that in a very cultured, appropriate as well as apprehensive way
Brilliantly illustrations... An entire epic told in a nutshell, wow 👏👏👏
