This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Ariella Broughton
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Janis
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Scarlet
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

More than Extraordinary Great work by chopra brothers & Perfect Act by each & every Actors Characters are Unmatchable. special effects are poor but even today with Money & technology no one Can match this one what chopra bros. made All of the actors are perfect match with characterslike every character it self came back from history. my favorite are Krishna,Bhishma,ganga,Arjun,Karna, I watched this series 22 years ago. Every Indian should see this once. this Epic Shows you how to live a Life & what is the purpose of our life. especially todays generation who where know very little about this Epic & Our true culture. if you Still didn't watch this than you are really missed something Great.

Well, the plot is as complicated as life. The problems tackled can be compared to the most complex ones in today's world. Thats Mahabharat for you, worlds longest and greatest epics. And putting it in a format that will capture the hearts and brain the world over, simply demands the best of the class title. The gem of it is Geeta, and Chopra has sprinkled its wisdom throughout the script, not only when it was explicitly recited. Mahabharat as an epic deserves much more then currently its getting not only in Bharat (India) but the world over. And Mahabharat as made by Chopras is an ideal way to begin with. I'd easily and highly recommend this in its pure format to general human in general and budding ups in particular.Other's comments say it all!! get a copy of it and entertain, enlighten and educate yourself. the sheer volume may take a few months to complete if watched a few hours a week, but its simply worth spending that much time and effort!

It is simply "the greatest TV series ever created"!!!!! Perfectly created!!!! First of all, adapting the legend of Mahabharatha is itself a monumental task since it is the greatest and the biggest epic ever written on earth. BR Chopra has done a magnificent job of adapting it onto the small screen. What clinches the score is the casting, dialogues, screenplay and direction.1. Casting - Everyone!!!!!!! No mistake in even a single character, be it even a small one. The best of all is Mukesh Khanna as Bhishma and Nitish Bharadwaj as Krishna. People used to literally call them as their characters even in their personal lives. 2. Dialogues - A single man, Dr.Rahi Masoom Raza. Despite being a Muslim from Ghazipur, UP, he was well-versed in Sanskrit. The dialogues were top-notch and incomparable to anything else. One of the main reasons for the popularity of the serial. 3. Screenplay and Direction - It is the magnum opus of BR Chopra. Each and every scene was perfectly created. Performances were terrific. Costumes, sets are truly reflective of Dwapara Yuga.I will not delve into the details of the plot since it will result in me over-running the prescribed limit of IMDb message space.Overall, this is a masterpiece of a TV serial and it will be a Herculean effort to remake. Several rumors float around like Muslim gullies used to be empty during 10-11 AM on Sundays, i.e., during the running time of the serial. Even shops used to be closed because shop-owners themselves used to watch it. I personally remember that every newspaper in South India used to print the dialogues in native languages beforehand for the convenience of the public to understand the Hindi language. I can confidently assert that there are not more than 5% of people who haven't watched this legend. And they are unluckiest of the Indian citizens!!!!!!

No one can do a better job then this seriously. You can cast these roles in their prime if they looked like these people and spoke their lanugague. You can cast Robert DeNiro Al Pachino Christen Bale Edward Norton Tom Hanks Leonardo Dicaprio Ben Kingsley Have the greatest producer The Directors- Steven Spielberg, Hitchkock, and Scorescese and this TV show will be a complet waste of time and boring crap compared to this TV show. The Mahabharata in its entirety was just perfect from every angle. The acting is better than The Godfather. The directing better than Phsyco. The drama, emotion, and complexity better than Schindler's List. The enthuisasm better than Star Wars. Forget the visuals and this TV show crushes the others and makes them feel like a childish, and immature movie. To make the Mahabharata is the toughest of all Steven Spielberg would die trying to make it and if you say he would then you are wrong considering the fact that SPielberg probably has never written 1.8 million words in his life. I do not need to explain how good this is based on this.
