Description
The Mahabharat is one of India's greatest religious epics and has a profound influence upon the popular psyche of the nation. Many of these tales form the background to much of India's religious and cultural life, so their retelling in a popular form provides an accessible entry into the cultural milieu. They have been selected with an emphasis on the morality of love and war as presented in the epic, focusing especially on the conflict between the Pandavas and the Kauravas and culminating in the great battle of Kurukshetra.
