Kurukshetra – Netflix Brings the Mahabharata’s Battlefield to Life Like Never Before

"Iss yuddh mein na koi mitra hai, na koi shatru. Sirf dharm hai, aur sirf kartavya." – Lord Krishna

The Mahabharata, India’s greatest epic, is returning in a groundbreaking new form. Netflix has unveiled the trailer for Kurukshetra, an animated saga that dives deep into the heart of dharma, destiny, and the blood-soaked battlefield where brothers turned against brothers. Launching October 10, 2025, this series promises to be one of the most visually stunning and emotionally resonant retellings of the timeless tale.


🌌 A War Beyond Blood – The Premise


Unlike past adaptations that focus on a single hero, Kurukshetra unfolds through the eyes of 18 warriors—each carrying their own dilemmas, wounds, and destinies. Across 18 days of war, viewers will witness how each fighter wrestles with the meaning of duty and sacrifice.


  • Arjuna, the warrior prince, is torn between love for his kin and loyalty to dharma.

  • Duryodhan, consumed by pride and ambition, is willing to burn the world to claim a throne.

  • Draupadi, fire-born and unyielding, whose vow of vengeance fuels the war’s flames.

  • Bhishma Pitamah, the grandsire bound by his oath, is torn between loyalty and justice.


At its core, Kurukshetra is not just about swords and arrows, but about inner conflict, moral compromise, and the eternal struggle between right and wrong.


🎨 A New Era of Storytelling – Behind the Series


  • Concept & Creation: Anu Sikka

  • Produced by: Tipping Point (Alok Jain, Anu Sikka, Ajit Andhare)

  • Written & Directed by: Ujaan Ganguly

  • Animation: Hitech Animation

  • Narrative Poetry: The legendary Gulzar, whose words breathe lyrical fire into the series.


With striking visuals, a sweeping score, and Gulzar’s poetry, the battlefield of Kurukshetra transforms into more than just a war—it becomes an eternal stage of human choices.


⚔ The Eternal Dharmayuddh – What to Expect


  • A Groundbreaking Perspective – Instead of a singular narrative, Kurukshetra reveals the war through multiple points of view. Each warrior’s truth is both unique and tragic.

  • The Emotional Core – From Arjuna’s paralysis at the thought of killing kin to Karna’s eternal loyalty, the series captures emotions rarely shown in grand war epics.

  • Modern Storytelling Meets Ancient Epic – High-quality animation, cinematic battles, and Gulzar’s evocative verses ensure the tale feels both ancient and timeless.


"Yeh sirf yuddh nahi, manav hriday ka darpan hai" – (This is not just a war; it is the mirror of the human heart).


🎭 Voices Behind the Epic


The voice cast breathes life into gods, warriors, and kings, with:

  • Vinod Sharma

  • Sahil Vaid

  • Saumya Daan


Their performances lend gravity to an already intense story, ensuring that each word echoes like a battle cry across the ages.
