Here is my take:

A tale well-woven: with history and imagination. The Shri Krishna of Kaliyug, selfless and unsmiling (vis-à-vis the smiling Buddha), yet following the “doctrine of ahimsa” – in his own way, unified Bharatvarsh by outmaneuvering Rakshas, (Kaliyug’s Shakuni), the mlechhas: (Alexander, Seleucus), and the vain: (Pauras, Dhanananda). Result: a glorious Mauryan era with Chandragupta on the throne. Bharatvarsh shined.

Did we smile too much in the last millennium? After Draupadi and Chanakya, in a world buffeted by uncertainty and changing power equations, when will the ‘shikha’ get untied again?
