Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi:
I personally feel kunti's role in the epic Mahabharata has been underplayed.She has not been given the due credit which she truly deserves.People always remember and talk about Draupadi as being the most progressive and futuristic woman of Mahabharatha, who at that day n age had the guts to have as many as 5 partners.Agreed, but people fail to notice the fact that her mom-in-law too had 5 partners (Surya,Dharma,Indra,Vayu and Pandu ofcourse). And also remember it was kunti who gave permission to her 5 sons to divide the prize(Draupadi) they had won from the contest(Draupadi Swayamvara) equally. Was she completely unaware when she said that to her sons(as it is made out to be) OR was it all DELIBERATE??There is every reason for her to do that, as for one she BELIEVED her sons were sons of GODS themselves(that must have made her over-possessive about her sons.)I have a feeling , she must have seen the jealous looks on the faces of her sons from behind doors and must have thought "IF I COULD then WHY NOT MY BAHU!!!!"....so guys i think, it was then that the legend of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi was born!!
