Ratings and reviews

Truly the film is about Arjun and not The Mahabharat as it has a one sided politically correct plot wherein the Kauravas are the oppressors and the Pandavs the oppressed something that is not accurate according to the text. Anyway, cudos to the animators for good animation. Waste of money to be honest.

Don't go into this movie expecting a full frontal of the Pandava story, You already know that. Instead watch a story unfold in front of you with: Satisfying visuals, brilliant voice narration and a plot that portrays the struggles of the central character. The storytelling hit the spot with the plot-told-by-an-important-character format. With "Yudhistir ki buddhi aur Bhim ki shakti" Arjun the warrior prince does well. My only disappointment: Not available to buy in the US.

Amazing scenic details let down by a weak script and poor story telling. Being an #animation fan, I rate it 4*
