The Modern Blunder in Ancient Hastinapur

The series premiered its first episode on October 25, 2025, with the second episode airing on November 1, 2025. A particular scene from episode one drew immediate attention. Goddess Ganga is depicted holding a child in a palace room. While the set design mostly matched the ancient setting, an incongruous modern bedside table stood out, causing viewers to question the authenticity of the AI-generated environment.

Social Media Erupts Over the AI Error

Fans of the epic series quickly took to social media, sharing screenshots and humorous reactions. On platform X (formerly Twitter), one user wrote, “Watching AI Mahabharata on Jio Hotstar… I’m dying at the bedside desk.” Another joked, “Missing a wireless charger here!” Some even spotted a person in a modern suit in the background, further fueling the conversation.

Despite the blooper, viewers also acknowledged the creative risk of combining AI with traditional storytelling. Many commented on the budget and technological challenges behind such an ambitious project, appreciating the courage it took to experiment with AI in a mythology-based narrative.
