What Homer’s ILIAD is to Greek civilization and the great classics of yore are to different nations of the world, the MAHABHARATAM is to India. Written by Brahmrishi Ved Vyasa, the ancient philosopher thinker who was known to be the fountain of all human knowledge, it has been translated into many languages and even presented in ballet form in far off western and oriental countries. But the MAHABHARATAM is not an abstruse philosophical or religious tract. It encompasses all shades of human nature from the utterly base to the completely divine; its high point is Lord Sri Krishna’s message to humanity, the Song Celestial the divine BHAGVAT GITA, acknowledged to be the quintessence of all knowledge embodied in the Hindu ethos. B. R. Chopra's MAHABHARATAM is one of India's most successful TV series in history and has been repeatedly telecast on TV networks worldwide to phenomenal response. The TV show has left an indelible impression in the hearts and minds of viewers worldwide with its timeless values and teachings. This classic tale of the victory of good over evil is available exclusively on the Internet at Rajshri.com

The Kurukshetra war has ended. The Pandavas visit Dhritarashtra who coldly embraces Yudhishthir. Dhritarashtra then moves forward to embrace Bheem, but Krishna tells Bheem to put an iron statue in his place. Dhritarashtra hugs the iron statue and crushes it to pieces. Dhritarashtra repents, nut Krishna tells him “You have not killed Bheem, you have only crushed an iron statue”. Dhritarashtra recomposes himself and blesses the Pandava Princes.

Duryodhan commands Ashwathama, the new commander-in-chief, to kill the Pandavas. Ashwathama, Kripacharya and Krit Verma arrive at the Pandava camp in the middle of the night as Dhristadyum and Draupadi’s five sons are sleeping. They kill all the sleeping warriors and set fire to the camp. Believing that they have killed the Pandavas, they return to Duryodhan and discover that he has died. They light Duryodhan’s pyre, and go to Sage Vyas’s ashram. The Pandavas find Ashwathama with Sage Vyas and take their revenge.

The battle between Bheem and Duryodhan begins. The warriors appear equal in strength and skill, but Krishna informs Bheem that Duryodhan could be defeated only if he smashes Duryodhan’s thighs. Bheem leaps like a lion and breaks Duryodhan’s thighs with his mace and defeats him.

Kunti visits the battlefield in the middle of the night to grieve over the dead body of her son Karna. Yudhisthir finds her and learns that Karna was her brother. “Had I known, I wouldn’t have fought this war,” says Yudhisthir. Arjun also feels guilty about killing Karna but Krishna consoles him and convinces him that it was his “Dharma” (duty). The Pandavas plan to perform the last rites of Karna, but Duryodhan claims the body and lights Karna’s pyre by himself.

 
6
As the sun rises in the sky the battle between Karna and Arjun begins. Karna sends a dazzling arrow, which splits fire towards Arjun. Krishna presses Arjun’s chariot five fingers deep in the mud at the last minute, so that the shaft misses Arjun’s head and only strikes his crown. Arjun burns with anger, fixes an arrow on his bow and kills Karna.

 
7
On the battlefield, Dushasan attacks Bheem with his arrows. Bheem remembers what Dushasan had done to Draupadi and anger blazes within him. Bheem jumps from his chariot and attacks Dushasan. Bheem fulfills the oath he had made thirteen years ago and kills Dushasan. Gandhari looses another one of her sons.

Drona spreads fear and destruction in the Pandava army. He seems invincible but Krishna tells Yudhisthir and Arjun that Drona can be defeated. “ If he were to hear that his son, Ashwathama is dead, he would loose interest in life and throw down his weapons, “says Krishna. Yudhisthir consults Bheem who kills a huge elephant that was also named Ashwathama. Bheem roars, “I have killed Ashwathama”. Drona hears his word and shouts back “ I will not take your word for it, let Yudhisthir say so “Yudhisthir repeats” Ashwathama is dead” and then he mutters to himself, “ Ashwathama, the elephant”. Upon hearing Yudhisthir, Drona lays down his weapons and is killed.

Bheem and Hidimba’s mighty son, Ghatotkach, joins the Pandavas in the war. Duryodhan realizes that Ghatotkach must be destroyed and encourages Karna to use his “shakti” (divine weapon). Karna resists because he is saving the weapon to use it against Arjun, but Duryodhan persuades him. Karna destroys Ghatotkach with his “Shakti”.
