Is the Mahabharata a myth or exaggerated real history? If it’s real, are there any references to it from other sources?
That's really cool. Are there any non-Hindu sources that mention the Mahabharata?
There are a few. For example, the Greek historian Megasthenes, who lived in India in the 4th century BCE, wrote about a war fought between the Indians that lasted for ten years. This is likely a reference to the Kurukshetra War described in the Mahabharata.
