The show originally aired in 94 episodes. However, depending on the telecast version (Doordarshan, B4U, or later reruns), the episode count ranges between 94 and 140 episodes.

In some regions, the series is available via the "ZEE5" channel on Amazon Prime, which requires an additional subscription.

ZEE5 holds the digital rights for the original B.R. Chopra Mahabharat.

For Arjun, a young student in the digital age of 2024, these were just stories his grandfather told—until he found a dusty hard drive labeled "Mahabharat 1988 - All Episodes." He clicked play.

B4U Television network legally uploaded the entire series during the 2020 lockdown. Search for "B4U Mahabharat 1988" . You can stream all episodes for free (ad-supported). However, YouTube Premium allows you to "save offline," though this is limited to the YouTube app.
