Here are some notable points of comparison:
 
 
1. Background and Upbringing •Karna: Born to Kunti before her marriage and abandoned, Karna was raised by a charioteer, which led to his lifelong struggle with his true identity and acceptance in the royal circles. •Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy: Born into a prominent political family, Jagan faced challenges, especially after the sudden death of his father, Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, which significantly impacted his political journey and shaped his identity.
 
2. Struggles and Challenges •Karna: Despite his skills and virtues, Karna constantly faced rejection and discrimination due to his perceived lower caste and status. His loyalty to Duryodhana, who accepted him, defined his path. •Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy: Jagan encountered significant political and legal challenges, including imprisonment and multiple controversies. His rise in politics involved overcoming opposition from established political entities.
 
3. Loyalty •Karna: Known for his unwavering loyalty to Duryodhana, who gave him respect and status when others did not, Karna’s loyalty often put him at odds with his own family and moral dilemmas. •Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy: His loyalty to his family's legacy, particularly his father's political ideology and followers, has been a central theme in his political career. Jagan’s dedication to his father's supporters has driven his political strategies and decisions.
 
4. Overcoming Adversity •Karna: Constantly had to prove his worth, facing numerous adversities, including curses, deceit, and the moral conflicts of the Kurukshetra war. •Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy: After his father’s death, he faced significant adversity, including political isolation and legal battles. Despite these, he managed to establish his own political party and eventually rise to power as the Chief Minister.
 
5. Controversies •Karna: His alliance with Duryodhana and participation in morally questionable acts, such as the insult of Draupadi, have been subjects of controversy and debate regarding his character. •Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy: His career has been marked by allegations of corruption and legal issues. His time in jail and the ongoing investigations into his financial dealings have been major points of controversy.
 
 
6. Leadership and Ambition •Karna: Displayed strong leadership qualities and ambition, aspiring to be the greatest warrior and support his friend Duryodhana in his quest for power. •Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy: Exhibits strong leadership and political ambition, aiming to solidify his party's presence and influence in Andhra Pradesh and implement his vision for the state's development.
 
 
7. Support and Sympathy from the Public •Karna: Despite his association with the Kauravas, Karna garnered sympathy for his tragic life story, noble qualities, and the injustices he faced. •Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy: He has significant support and sympathy, particularly from those who admired his father. His political campaigns often evoke an emotional connection with the electorate based on his family's legacy and his personal struggles. Conclusion While Karna is a mythological character and #YSJagan is a contemporary political figure, both share narratives of overcoming adversity, displaying loyalty, facing controversies, and striving for acceptance and recognition. These parallels highlight universal themes of struggle, ambition, and resilience.

Karna is played by hero prabhas on a big budget film that's a blockbuster and people running to theaters and getting all houses full. The highlight of the film is the climax and fans are going crazy everywhere for pebby's role @ the end of the movie.

Jagan mohanudu also a range person antunava? Amithabh says barinche vadike kashtalu isthadu devudu in the movie are you referring to Karna (jagan) according to your post ?
