Mahabharata : How it all began
"If there ever was an epic that has touched upon every conceivable human emotion and posed the most complex questions it has to be the Mahabharata, the story of a great war fought in the name of dharma. The rivalry between the Pandavas and the Kauravas, royal first cousins who fought for the throne at Hastinapura ended in the war at Kurukshetra. Was it the eldest Kaurava brother Duryodhana's resentment towards his cousins that sparked the flame? Or was it the eldest Pandava Yudhishtira's belief that he was the rightful heir to the throne? Or was it the force of the elements beyond their control that nudged them towards a pre-ordained path? The majestic Karna, abandoned by his mother Kunti and wronged by fate, makes his entry. Duryodhana gains an ally in Karna who ironically is the eldest Pandava. In the first of this three-part series, meet the many characters who played their parts big and small in escalating the tension between the sons of two royal brothers."
Prema Jayakumar (Author), Ranjan Kamath (Narrator)
Mahabharata: The Roll of the Dice
"In the second book in this three-part series, the roll of the dice reverses the fortunes of the Pandavas. The peaceful years following the division of the kingdom of Bharata were soon to end because of Duryodhana's jealousy. Along with his uncle, Sakuni, he plots to secure the entire kingdom. The twisted path of simmering tension between the royal cousins culminates in an unfair game of dice. The Pandavas accept Duryodhana's challenge to gamble fully aware that they can never win against the cunning Sakuni. Yudhishtira, the architect of his misfortune, gambles away his territory, his wealth, his brothers, himself and even his wife. Blinded by the lust for power, the blood ties melt away. What do they do now? Where do they go next?"
Mahabharata: The Great War
"The gods knew that the decisive moment that would end the royal rivalry had arrived. They watched in dismay as the inevitable end of a grand era fast approached, yet hopeful that in the end, dharma would stand triumphant. Would the stalwarts Bhishma and Drona survive to see the end? And what of Karna? Where would his loyalties lie? With his true friend, Duryodhana or with his true brothers, the Pandavas? Lord Krishna, the ninth avatar of Lord Vishnu, descends on earth with the sole purpose of preserving dharma in his seemingly humble role as Arjuna's charioteer. On the day of the battle, a confused Arjuna questions the motives behind the war. Krishna counsels a distraught Arjuna and reveals the ultimate truth about karma, life, death and fate in this battlefield discussion – the Bhagavad Gita. The quintessence of Indian culture that has influenced the world! In the last of the three-part series, the great war in the battleground of Kurukshetra takes place."
