Every time I read a well written version of the Mahabharata, I respect the original epic even more. How many works can lay claim to so many renditions centuries after the original version? As for this version, what does it say of an author when he can mesmerise the reader with a story that one has been hearing since childhood? As the title suggests, Bhima is the protagonist and the story is told from his perspective. MT does not try to take on the much larger canvas of the Mahabharata, andI bought this book after hearing lots of good comments about this book. But, the book was far better than what I had expected. M.T Sir has narrated Mahabharatha in a different angle. We can see the real hero, Bhima in every page. Bhima - a good son, brother, husband and father.And, everyone will like Ghatotkachan(Abandoned son of Bhima, who was an important reason behind the victory of Pandavas in Kurukshetra war.) Also, I lost respect to some of idols who were always worshiped in all other
Bheeman; his view point about maha bharata and some really interesting perspective and imagination from the incredibly talented author makes this one a classic :). Some people can't digest the ending but it is worth reading and it is easily one of the best book that I have read till now.
Depiction of the real hero of the legend...
No one can tell Mahabharata as simple as MT did.No can tell this tale in this perspective..No can tell the emotions of Mahabharata as MT did..May be we all have a 'Mandan',inside us, the one who sacrificed his wishes for others, the one who left everything from childhood just for others.The one who is emotional, the one who is strong at heart!http://theuntoldlines.blogspot.com/20...http://blognikhil.wordpress.com/2013/...
It was an excellent read. Being an avid reader and fan of Mahabharata, the world inside it always fonded me. The original Mahabharata, being written as an incident and not in anybody's perspective, always craved me to think about how the world that time would look like. This was the first thing that really attracted me to this book. The grand scale of the palaces can be easily envisioned and be mesmerized. How M.T have deliberately left out the element of fantasy is quiet fascinating; keeping
Brilliant concept. To see the whole Mahabharatham through a different pair of eyes.
