Mumbai, India —In a grand literary event held recently, veteran actor Mukesh Khanna, renowned for portraying Bhishma Pitamah in the iconic TV series Mahabharat, officially unveiled the much-anticipated book “Satyaki: Dwapar Ka Ajey Yodha” written by acclaimed filmmaker and author Dushyant Pratap Singh.
This 32-chapter epic explores the untold saga of Satyaki, a mighty warrior from the Mahabharata, whose contributions to the war and ancient Indian history have largely remained overshadowed by more frequently cited names. The book promises to reintroduce Satyaki to modern readers through a powerful blend of research, imagination, and engaging storytelling.

A Warrior Rediscovered
While the Mahabharata is known for its rich pantheon of warriors and heroes, author Dushyant Pratap Singh believes that figures like Satyaki never received the recognition they truly deserve.
“Satyaki was not just a brave warrior — he was a symbol of loyalty, strategy, and dharma. This book is my effort to bring his life and legacy back into mainstream discourse,” said Singh during the event.
Mukesh Khanna’s Emotional Endorsement
Mukesh Khanna, known for his deep connection to Indian mythology through his iconic roles, was visibly moved after hearing an excerpt from the book. Singh read a dramatic scene from the epic involving Bhishma and Satyaki, which touched Khanna deeply.
“Just a single page was enough to stir my curiosity. I must say, this isn’t just a book — it’s a literary resurrection. I am eager to read it in full,” said Khanna.
He praised the author’s style, narrative depth, and the importance of reviving such lesser-known characters from India’s cultural past.
“Satyaki’s story is not just relevant for mythology lovers — it’s important for our youth to understand their forgotten heroes,” he added.
Beyond Dwapar: A Journey Through Yugas
Unlike many mythological retellings that focus solely on war stories, “Satyaki: Dwapar Ka Ajey Yodha” ventures beyond the battlefield. According to the author, the book encompasses themes and events spanning from Satya Yuga to the anticipated arrival of Kali Yuga’s Kalki Avatar. It intertwines mythology with futuristic prophecy, all supported by scriptural references and philosophical insights.
A Modern Literary Experience
The book has already made its presence felt on digital platforms. It is available on Amazon, Google Books, and other major online bookstores. The audiobook version is also gaining popularity among listeners who prefer mythological storytelling in audio format.
Dushyant Pratap Singh expressed confidence that the book would appeal not only to lovers of Indian epics but also to new-age readers seeking meaningful content rooted in history, culture, and spirituality.
The launch of “Satyaki: Dwapar Ka Ajey Yodha” marks a significant cultural moment — one that reclaims the voice of a long-forgotten hero. With the endorsement of a legendary figure like Mukesh Khanna, and the creative vision of Dushyant Pratap Singh, this book is set to become a landmark contribution to modern Indian mythological literature.
