THIS STORY HAPPENS ON THE COMMERCIAL BACKGROUND OF THE MAHABHARATA`S STORY. IN THIS METAPHOR, THE OLD HASTINAPUR EMPIRE WAS TRANSFORMED INTO `HASTINAPUR ENTERPRISES`. DHRITARASHTRA COMES IN FRONT OF US AS PRESIDENT OF THIS ENTERPRISES AND KRISHNA IS A MODERN DAY BUSINESS CONSULTANT. THE PLACE OF ‘VARANAVAT’ TAKES THE FORM OF A FAMILY HOLIDAY HOME AND ALL THIS DRAMA HAPPENS TO CLAIM THE BUSINESS CAPITAL! MODERN-DAY READERS ARE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE ANCIENT EPICS IN A MODERN WAY. THIS WAS REALLY NOT AT ALL AN EASY TASK BUT DEEPAK KAUL HAS DONE IT IN A VERY INTERESTING AND FLUID LANGUAGE AND HAS SUCCEEDED IN IT. WHILE GOING THROUGH THIS BOOK, THE READER CAN VIEW THE MAHABHARATA IN THE MYTHOLOGICAL (‘PURANA’) STORY SO WELL, THAT HE CAN EASILY FIND HOW MAHABHARATA WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN THOSE DAYS. DEEPAK DID NOT ONLY TELL THE STORY OF MAHABHARATA BUT ALSO GAVE THE READER THE JOY OF EXPERIENCING THE EPIC STORY IN THIS MODERN ERA. THIS IS A STORY WHICH HAS THE POWER TO REVAMP THE IDEOLOGIES OF THE YOUTH. THIS CAN BE COUNTED AS A GREAT ENTERTAINER BOOK!
