Everyone knows Rajamouli's ultimate dream project is the Mahabharata. But honestly, even a massive 3-part movie series wouldn't do justice to the sheer scale, politics, and emotion of the epic.

My suggestion: What if he maps it out exactly like the Marvel Cinematic Universe? I’m talking a massive 15 to 20-movie slate rolled out over a decade or two, divided into distinct "Phases."

Instead of throwing 50 main characters at us in one giant Kurukshetra movie, we need solo movies for the heavy hitters first. We need to connect with every single character personally so that when they finally clash in the war, the emotional weight is absolutely devastating.

Here is how the structure could work:

Phase 1 (The Solo Origins): Standalone movies establishing the core characters. Give us a gritty underdog movie for Karna, a training-focused epic for Arjuna, and a political thriller for Bhishma's terrifying vow.

The First "Avengers" Crossover: All these established characters finally collide. The Rajasuya Yagna, Draupadi's Swayamvar, culminating in the disastrous Game of Dice. The "Phase" ends on a dark, devastating note with the Pandavas stripped of everything and sent into exile.

Phase 2 & 3 (The Build-Up): Movies focusing on the brutal survival during exile, the quest for divine weapons (Astras), and introducing the fierce new generation like Abhimanyu and Ghatotkacha.

The "Infinity War / Endgame" Finale: The 18-day Kurukshetra War isn't just one movie; it's a massive, multi-part crossover event. Imagine the cinematic chaos of Abhimanyu in the Chakravyuha, or the final fated clash between Karna and Arjuna, but with the emotional payoff of having followed these specific characters for 10+ movies.

We Indian already know the emotion in our purans if we really need to reach out to the international audience we need to go with a single character movies and who will die in Mahabharata kurukshetra part for example if Rajamouli make a movie on karna which is obviously going to make a huge blockbuster!!then the character coming into the kurukshetra episode and dying that way my god the emotion and drama we can expect is imaginable so to get that emotion and value of each character we need to make a movie for each main character
