Primary

The film, based on an ancient epic, depicts a universal story of justice against an abuser of power. Its focus on individual heroic intervention and retribution for wrongdoing does not align with a specific modern political ideology, leading to a neutral rating.

This early Indian mythological film features an entirely Indian cast, which aligns with its cultural context and does not involve recasting traditionally white roles. The narrative focuses on an ancient epic, without engaging in modern critiques of traditional identities or explicit DEI themes.

Secondary

The film directly adapts a revered Hindu epic, the Mahabharata, portraying its characters, themes of dharma and justice, and narrative with respect. It affirms the moral framework and values inherent in the source material, positioning the audience to sympathize with the virtuous characters and condemn the antagonist's adharma.
