Six pack abs and flashy tattoos in Ekta’s Mahabharat
July 15, 2008 Filed under Bollywood News
Yes it true, Its the new Mahabharat with Six Pack abs and Flashy tattoos. Yes the New stars with new Look it looks like that Ekta Know the taste of Television Viewers. Right from squashy dialogues, pot bellied ‘Draupadi’, to the five Pandavas sporting six pack abs and flashy tattoos, one is left wondering as to whether the story carries any resemblance to the original happening of the epic or it is just another glossy melodrama crying out aloud for some undeserved attention.

So what begins ‘Kahani Hamari Mahabharat Ki’?
Well, it’s the highly dramatised and overplayed ‘Draupadi Vastraharan’. Yes, Ekta played the sensational sequence right in the very first episode that got her the maximum eyeballs and severe flak for going overboard with the script.
What we saw was Ekta’s loyalist Anita Hassanandani playing the sultry Draupadi, wearing a flashy red Manish Malhotra creation that exposed the starlets bulging and sagging belly. Leaving her dressing sense aside, the young starlet has simply failed to match with Rupa Ganguly, who played ‘Draupadi’ in the earlier version of Mahabharat (produced by BR Chopra).
Anita not only lacked the look but also failed to depict the dignity and grace that was elegantly pulled off by Rupa in the previous make of the epic.
The five Pandavas are being reduced to puppets in the show. None of them except for a guy playing ‘Yudhisthir’, have been given any dialogues to speak of. As a result, one sees them filling the empty screen space.
But in case, you are thinking that the diaster ends here, let us tell you that the worst is yet to come. So, if you still wish to watch this heavy duty drama, we would suggest don’t take it too seriously or you are to get your facts messed up for bad.
