46: Books & Authors with Arshia Sattar, who has retold the Mahabharata for Children | Part-1

Yudhishtira as a man who hasn't got his due, Karna as a tragic hero, Eklavya as a representative of the marginalised, the horror of Draupadi's cheerharan, Duryodhana's growth from a petty prince to a generous hero, and the Mahabharata as a complex text about good people who don't always do good things and bad people who are sometimes honourable - Arshia Sattar, who has retold the Mahabharata for Children, talks about all that on this week's Books & Authors podcast.
