The Mahabharat is one of the two major epics of India. With a history of many thousands of years, Mahabharat can be considered as the first known philosophical book in the history of mankind. Romance, Violence, Politics, Emotions, War, Peace. What not? It is a blend of different flavors of emotions, which will surely leave an eternal mark on every single person who reads it.

The great sage Vyasa compiled this collection of 18 parvas (parts), which has nearly 2,00,000 verses. It has many interesting characters, which will surely help us to mold ourselves into a better personality.

As it is very difficult for us to go through all the 2,00,000 verses and understand them, I am taking an initiative to share with you some interesting events, characters and stories from Mahabharat on every Saturday. Stay Hungry. Stay curious. Keep learning and Happy reading :)
