In this episode, Devdutt Pattanaik talks extensively about one of the most misinterpreted, misrepresented and misunderstood character in Indian mythology - Karna. He takes us through Karnas journey that begins as a boon granted by sage Durvasa to Kunti. The consequences of being an unwed mother scared Kunti so she abandoned her son resulting in Karna growing up as a charioteers son. Devdutt narrates many interesting anecdotes from Karnas childhood that stress on the significance of some of his names - Daanveer and Daanshoor. While touching upon the obvious narrative of Karna, Devdutt also introduces us to aspects of the warriors life that force us to do some thinking about caste, creed, goodness of heart and duty.
