Today while watching one of the so called news channel Aaj Tak ( how can this channel be a No 1 news channel????), I came across a interesting TV Soap news. The news was the launch of a whole new version of Mahabharata. So its seems that the trend of remaking the things have caught up the small screen also. It all started with remixed songs, then remake movies like DON and now the remake of serials. It appears that the K factor girl (Ekta Kapoor) has got it very clear that the Saas-Bahu soaps are no longer going to hold the audience.However, it still is a daunting task to match the perfection of the Old Mahabharata. The serial was a huge success and almost all the characters in it are known by their alias names even today. How can the audience forget the Bheem, Duryodhan, Karn, Arjun, Sakuni mama, Dratarashtra.
All these characters were given justice by the actors who portrayed them in the old Mahabharata.
But when the names of actors who would be a part of the new Mahabharata were disclosed it became very clear that the serial would not have a long run. None of the actors looked appropriate for the role. The Bheem of this Mahabharata looks more like a model with good physique. The Duryodhan has a chocolate boy kind of a look. And if this was not all, then the role of Dratarastra would be played by none other than Ronit Roy. Yeah you are right the husband of Tulsi in KSBKBT.
It would be interesting to watch the new actors portraying these characters again. Atleast the serial would have a decent TRP's in the beginning but will it be able to hold on to the expectations of the audience is something that we will have to wait and watch.
