4.9/5 (22955 ratings)

Description:2,000 BC.Early Iron Age India.Large tracts of lands lie uninhabited. Slowly, large settlements like Hastinapur appear on the horizon and a thriving place of commerce and trade is established. But with development comes its associated costs--greed, covetousness and false pride. Plots are hatched and common people groan. Dhritarashtra, initially peaceful and snug, like a "slimy frog" in a pond rules for some years. Shakuni, with his own untold, tragic tale, refuses to take care of his kingdom of Gandhara, somehow overseen by his two sons now, a province grown impeccably corrupt though. Caste system remains rigid and yet, Eklavya slays all the Kaurava brothers in a rage and revives them at the behest of Dronacharya, who is rather keen on the restoration of his pupils' lives than a mere piece of flesh. Draupadi, bored of the false pride of her five husbands, confesses her secret love for Karna. During the War of Kurukshetra, Bhanumati's condition worsens, while Vikarna, the third Kaurava shows his battle skills much before the dharma yuddha. Sahadeva's foreknowledge of the war and the infamous game of dice shocks many.
