Rajendra Kher

Dhananjay Rajendra Kher

Marathi best-seller novel on the life of Arjuna, the main character from the ancient epic - Mahabharata. Arjuna tells his own life story in first person style. The novel is mainly based on Bhandarkar researched edition (that is supposed to be most authentic) 15 volumes, and Neelakanthi edition: 13 volumes. Also Mr. Kher has researched 100s of other books on Mahabharata. This novel presents many untouched episodes which were not written before in any book or novel based on Mahabharata. . . Many influenced readers think that Karna was great archer than Arjuna or because of Krishna; Arjuna won many wars. Draupadi deny to marry with Karna who addressed him as 'Sutaputra' But all these events introduced by some other successful novelist are not real. To know reality, one has to read this novel: Dhananjay.
