Description
While The Mahabharata is established as the most complex narrative ever conceived in the epic tradition, its legacy rests entirely on the complexity of the characters in the narrative and their relevance in the present day. The Great Indian Epic has given the world some of the most interesting characters like Bheeshma Pitamah, Dronacharya, Pandavas, Kauravas, Draupadi, and Krishna, among so many others. In this tour, we will break down all the major characters in The Mahabharata and get to know their story arcs and how larger than life they really were. If you are interested to take a deep dive into the stories and details of the great epic Mahabharata, this tour is just the one for you.

Professional Tour Guide

Diptarup G.
I’m Dr Diptarup Ghosh Dastidar, a research fellow at Banaras Hindu University, India. My PhD thesis deals with comics studies and spatiality, but my interests span farther wide into popular culture, gender studies, and Indology. I have taught at various universities in India and am currently teaching literature and language to school kids in Uttar Pradesh. Living in the historic city of Varanasi (aka Benares), I have been driven into learning and talking about ancient Indian scriptures, mythology, and philosophy. I am very passionate about socialising and I love lecturing! I’m also a musician and vocalist in the alt-rock band – The Spring Leaves – while I’m not teaching, or reading! I hope that I’ll be able to add some value to your experience with World Virtual Tours. Cheers!
