While Amitabh Bachchan's portrayal of Dronacharya appears fitting for the role of the legendary teacher, Suriya, a National award winner, steps into the shoes of Yudhishthira, the eldest of the Pandavas. Kamal Haasan dons a long mane and beard and becomes unrecognizable in his transformation into Bhishma.

Furthermore, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, renowned for his versatility, looks a perfect fit for the role of Shakuni and Hrithik Roshan embodies Duryodhana, the eldest of the Kauravas and the primary antagonist.

While Alia Bhatt takes on the role of Draupadi, Chayaan Vikram steps into the character of Karnan and Dulquer Salmaan portrays the warrior prince, Arjun, bringing the love triangle to life.
