Private Notes
Dhritarashtra informs Vidur that he wants to invite Draupadi, along with the Pandavas to Hastinapur for a game of dice. Vidur delivers this message to Yudhishthir. Knowing that Shakuni is plotting against the Pandavas, he advises them to decline the invitation.
While Shakuni and Duryodhan discuss their plan, the Pandavas reach Hastinapur, along with Draupadi and Kunti. On entering the palace, Sahadev feels something bad is going to happen. Meanwhile, Bhishma and Vidur wonder about Duryodhan and Shakuni's plan.
Duryodhan greets the Pandavas and invites them to begin the game. Bhishma informs all about the rules of the dice game. As part of the plan, Duryodhan manages to make all the women leave the room. What will the Kauravas and the Pandavas bet on?
Yudhishthir and Duryodhan agree to the rules of the game. At first, Duryodhan stakes some wealth. He wins the first round. For the second round, he stakes his brother, Vikarna. What or who will Yudhishthir bet on?
Vidur stops Duryodhan from betting on his brothers. Shakuni argues and then Nakul volunteers to be a stake. On receiving Draupadi's message, Yudhishthir refuses to bet on his brother and quits the game. Shakuni provokes him to play again. Duryodhan wins the second round too.
For the next round, Ashwatthama requests Duryodhan to bet on him. Sahdev requests Yudhishthir to bet on him. News of betting on family reaches Draupadi and she rushes to stop them. She is furious at Yudhishthir for betting on her husbands.
One after the other, Yudhishthir loses Sahdev, Arjun and Bheem to Duryodhan. What have Shakuni and Duryodhan done to win all the games? On losing all his brothers, Yudhishthir decides to stop the game. However, Duryodhan has other plans.
Bhishma tells Yudhishthir that he will release his brothers if he permits. Shakuni tricks Yudhishthir into playing more rounds of game. Meanwhile, Vrushali advises Draupadi to visit Dhrishtadyumna. Duryodhan instructs that Draupadi be brought to the game.
Duryodhan puts Bhanumati on stake against Draupadi. At first, Yudhishthir refuses to bet on Draupadi. Later, he agrees. Before finishing the game, he breaks Shakuni's dice, made with the bones of his father. However, the pieces become one again. Who will win this round?
Draupadi informs Duryodhan's servant that Yudhishthir did not have any right to bet on her after losing himself. Duryodhan instructs Dushyasan to bring Draupadi. She refuses to go with him but he drags her to the assembly hall.
Duryodhan instructs Draupadi to sit on his lap. Unable to take the humiliation, Draupadi decides to leave. Bhishma also requests Dhritarashtra to let her go, but instead of protecting her, he asks her to obey Duryodhan. How will she react to Duryodhan's next command?
Bhishma decides to leave the venue. Dhritarashtra reminds him about his promise of supporting them and stops him. Later, Duryodhan instructs Dushyasan to disrobe Draupadi. She challenges Duryodhan and declares that Lord Krishna will protect her.
Duryodhan tries to disrobe Draupadi. However, Draupadi remains covered with clothes by Krishna's grace. Draupadi curses the Kuru family. Meanwhile, Kunti threatens Duryodhan that she will bring Krishna's army to Hastinapur and make the Pandavas independent.
