Untold Stories from the Mahabharata: Volume 1

By Aditya J.

The immortal stories of the characters in the Mahabharata have inspired us to walk the difficult path of our lives from the time immemorial.

The tales about Karna's unwavering struggle against his destiny, Bhishma's extraordinary determination, Draupadi's immense sacrifice for the establishment of Dharma, Shri Krishna's clever strategy, Vidur's virtue and Ekalavya's readiness to acquire knowledge have been told from the centuries.
