Here’s a short, platform-ready podcast summary:

King Shantanu fell in love with the river goddess Ganga, who agreed to marry him on one condition—he would never question her actions. Blinded by love, he accepted. But after each of their first seven children was born, Ganga drowned them in the river, and Shantanu, bound by his promise, remained silent in agony.

When he finally broke his vow to stop her from killing their eighth child, Ganga revealed the truth behind her actions and left him. That child survived and grew up to become Devavrata, later known as Bhishma—the legendary warrior of the Mahabharata.
