Rather than just relying on human actors and traditional visual effects, Mahabharat: Ek Dharmayudh depends on modern technology for magnificent palaces and intense battle scenes.
Only the first episode, with a duration of 20 minutes, has dropped on October 25, hinting at remaining episodes to be dropped on a daily basis. JioStar and Collective Media Network claimed Mahabharat: Ek Dharmayudh to be an ambitious project for them that's designed to bring the timeless story of the epic drama and battles with an innovative formation.
The first episode begins with King Mahabhish's rule in the Ikshvaku dynasty and how his penance and virtuous deeds helped him earn the rights to be present in Lord Brahma's assembly. Throughout its 20-minute duration, the video exhibits the grandness of Brahmalok and the divine nature surrounding it.
The epsiode soon introduces Devi Ganga and her calmness that romantically attracts Mahabhish, making Lord Brahma furious with anger and curse Mahabhish and Devi Ganga to reborn on Earth and get married. He also curses that Dev Ganga will leave Mahabhish eventually hurting him to the core.
