Was Karna Really a Victim? The Mahabharata Tells a Different Story | Ft. Ami Ganatra
Was Karna really a victim of fate, circumstances, and injustice or did his own choices shape the destiny he ultimately faced? In this episode, we take a closer look at Karna beyond the popular image of the tragic, misunderstood hero.
