"Dharm aur adharm ke iss mahayudh se itihaas gawah hai, aur ab aap bhi Watch Kurukshetra, out 10 October, only on Netflix," the post read.

With Season 1 set to premiere on October 10, Kurukshetra explores the inner conflicts, personal rivalries, and the heavy toll of India's greatest dharmayuddh (war of righteousness) that turned family against family. From Arjuna's agonising dilemma to Draupadi's fierce vow for justice; from Duryodhan's insatiable thirst for power to Bhishma Pitamah's solemn wisdom, the animated series vividly captures the raw emotions and timeless dilemmas that have resonated across generations, as per a press note.

Conceptualised and created by Anu Sikka, the series is produced by Tipping Point under the stewardship of Alok Jain, Anu Sikka and Ajit Andhare.

Written and directed by Ujaan Ganguly and brought to life by the talented team at Hitech Animation, Kurukshetra is further elevated by the lyrical genius of legendary poet Gulzar, whose evocative words add depth and emotion to the story.

Finally! An animated series on our epic Mahabharata. Hope they don't westernize the characters too much. The trailer shows promise but I'm worried about the interpretation of complex characters like Duryodhan. Fingers crossed they maintain the cultural authenticity.

As someone who grew up watching BR Chopra's Mahabharat, I'm excited but skeptical. Animation is a great medium but hope they don't oversimplify the philosophical depth. The involvement of Gulzar ji gives me confidence though. Will definitely give it a watch!

This looks amazing! Perfect way to introduce Indian mythology to my kids who are more into animated content. The visuals seem stunning and the storytelling approach appears contemporary while respecting the original epic. Great initiative by Netflix India!

The animation style reminds me of some Japanese anime but with Indian soul. Love that they're focusing on the emotional conflicts rather than just the war scenes. Arjuna's dilemma and Bhishma's wisdom - these are the moments that make Mahabharata timeless. Booking my Netflix subscription right away! 🎯

While I appreciate the effort, I hope they don't make it too preachy. The beauty of Mahabharata lies in its moral ambiguities and gray characters. The trailer looks good but let's see if they can do justice to the complexity of the original text.
