The Premise: Perspective, Dharma, and War

Kurukshetra focuses exclusively on the battlefield, in contrast to conventional retellings that cover the entire Mahabharata. Arjuna, Bhima, Abhimanyu, Yudhishthira, and other warriors are the focus of each episode, which delves into their moral quandaries, anxieties, and motivations.

Because of this format, viewers are able to see the conflict as a mosaic of individual narratives and philosophical decisions rather than as a single event.
