Co-director Ravi Chopra, seen with a tilak on his forehead, also seems to be fighting back tears in the video. His father and co-director BR Chopra is seen in a conversation with Roopa as they gear up to depart from the sets of the show.

The fans also seem to be getting emotional as the show approaches its end. A fan wrote, “Whole Mahabharata is full of emotions....” Another wrote, “This was what we say #Human_bonding. All were in tears, act, action and character played settled in our mind in such a synchronising manner that, now its impossible to be replaced with any new character.” One more commented to the video, “Really very much emotional.”

Mahabharat is being re-run on DD National amid lockdown. It was re-released alongside Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan which has already completed its re-run and is being telecasted all over again on Star Plus.
