Epics are such great works of literature that with every passing day, our attraction towards the epics seem to be ever increasing. Correct us if we are wrong. In India, since the times B.R. Chopra’s Mahabharata and Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayana were telecasted on National Television, the saga of dealing with our epics increased 10-folds. But, if you ask us who has been the perfect one so far, we’ll say, ‘the best is yet to come’. In fact, we are secretly longing for that day when none but Peter Jackson would direct the grand epic, Mahabharata.
Err….for those of you who think likewise, we bet Peter Jackson’s version is going to change your whole notion! If he could base the “epic†The Lord of the Rings set in the pre-historic age brilliantly with all its inherent phantasmagoric appeal intact, then he would definitely be able to justify a perfect filming of Mahabharata. What do you think?
