Heroes From The Mahabharata

The gallant heroes of the Mahabharata are shining examples of valor and chivalry. Yet they also have their weak spots. They are swayed by conflicting emotions which only serve to heighten the epic grandeur of the greatest story ever told. In this poem of 100, 000 verses, human foibles and heroism loom larger than life even as the Pandava brothers emerge victorious over their jealous Kaurava cousins.
