Mahabharata the epic is a forbidden text in Indian households. I did not know the story completely till I read it on my own at the age of 24.
But my friend Prajukta Pradhan has a deep knowledge of the text as her father cut off the cable connection and fed his children with Mahabharata serial CDs.
Prajukta's deep knowledge of the text and the details that she remembers kept me hooked for almost three hours.
I finished an entire packet of dry fruits as I heard the story like a little kid. I hope you enjoy this episode.
We will be back with a second part where we will discuss some of my unanswered questions.
