As the rishis and the Pandavas move about in the forest, they see Ashwatthama and his army. To stay hidden from them, Yudhishthir takes Kunti and his brothers deep into the jungle, while Arjun distracts them. The Pandavas enter Hidimba's magical jungle.

The Pandava brothers are unable to find Hidimba. Hidimba and Hidimbi, in turn, decide to kill the Pandavas. At Panchal, Dhrishtadyumna tells Draupadi that the sole purpose of his life is to fulfil Drupad's wish of killing Drona. Shikhandini is heart-broken when her post is given to Dhrishtadyumna.

Duryodhan is crowned as the new King of Hastinapur. He takes Bhishma and Gandhari's blessings. As the Pandavas arrive at Vyasa's ashram, Draupadi worries about her Swayamvar. Krishna advises her to seek answers from Lord Shiva.

The Pandavas take shelter in a potter's house. The potter informs them about Draupadi's Swayamvar. The Pandavas decide to help him by collecting mud for him. Arjun and Bheem visit the temple before digging. This is where Lord Shiva answers Draupadi's prayer by showing her a glimpse of Arjun.

While Bheem and Arjun return to the potter's house, the wheels of their cart get stuck in the mud. While taking out the wheel, Duryodhan comes face-to-face with Bheem. Will he recognise him? Later, Draupadi learns about the saint she saw in the temple.

Rukmi, Duryodhan, Karna and Shakuni arrive at the venue of Draupadi's Swayamvar. Dhrishtadyumna creates a fish in the sky. Drupad asks the invitees to target the eye of the fish while looking only at its reflection in the water. Shakuni suggests that Karna should win the competition for Duryodhan.

Drupad welcomes Krishna to Draupadi's Swayamvar. Krishna asks Karna not to support what is wrong. The invited kings fail to hit the target. Krishna informs Drupad and Draupadi that only Arjun and Karna can accomplish the task.

Dhrishtadyumna stops Karna from taking aim and tells him that he has to participate for himself, not for others. Karna tries to defend Duryodhan, but in vain. Duryodhan asks Karna to prove his capabilities and marry Draupadi. Just when Karna lifts the bow, Draupadi stops him and announces her decision.

As Draupadi stops Karna from participating in the competition, the Pandavas arrive at the Swayamvar. Krishna convinces Drupad to allow the Brahmins to participate in the competition. Drupad hesitates but later agrees. Which one of the Pandavas will take aim?

Drupad challenges the Brahmins to win the competition. Bheem asks Arjun to take aim. Arjun comes forward and succeeds in hitting the target. This is when Karna recognises Arjun and shouts his name.

Shakuni is shocked on seeing the Pandavas alive. Arjun and Draupadi exchange garlands. Shakuni provokes the kings by saying that it is an insult to them that a Brahmin has married a princess. As the couple leave the palace, Krishna gives five stones to Draupadi as a gift.

As Arjun, Draupadi and Bheem leave Panchal, Bhishma asks Vidur to bring the Pandavas back to Hastinapur. Later, Arjun returns home with Draupadi. Kunti assumes that her sons have returned with alms and orders that whatever they have got must be shared between the brothers.

Kunti passed her order without realising she was talking about Draupadi. She apologises to her and asks Arjun to ignore her previous order. But Arjun cannot. He requests Draupadi to marry his brothers. Will Draupadi agree?

Draupadi is disheartened with Arjun's decision. She remembers Krishna's advice and agrees to marry the Pandavas. Drupad gets furious with the Pandavas when he hears about this. Drupad decides to bring Draupadi back to Panchal.

Ved Vyas informs Kunti about the fear amongst the people of Hastinapur. On his insistence, she decides to return to Hastinapur and get Yudhishthir appointed as the king. Later, a furious Drupad instructs his army to attack the Pandavas when they come to his palace. Krishna reveals their true identity to Drupad.

Drupad is shocked on learning the true identities of the Brahmins. On Krishna's advice, Drupad welcomes them. Later, Draupadi shares her sorrows with Krishna. He comforts her by telling her that whenever she is in need of his help, he will appear.

Shakuni confronts Karna for not competing in the Swayamvar. He suggests Duryodhan should become the king of Hastinapur before Dhritarashtra learns about the Pandavas. With Bheem's grand announcement, Draupadi is married to the Pandava brothers.

Shakuni informs Dhritarashtra that Drupad humiliated the Kauravas and hence Duryodhan has decided to perform Ashvamedha yagna. However, Gandhari tells Duryodhan that only a king can perform Ashvamedha yagna. Duryodhan forces Dhritarashtra to crown him king of Hastinapur.

Drupad, Krishna and Dhrishtadyumna bid farewell to the Pandavas and Draupadi. In Hastinapur, Dhritarashtra and Gandhari are upset, thinking about Duryodhan. He decides to appoint Duryodhan as his successor. Just when Duryodhan is about to be crowned, Bhishma stops the ceremony.

Bhishma informs Dhritarashtra that the Pandavas are alive. Dhritarashtra tells Bhishma that he will appoint Duryodhan as the king, if he fails to bring the Pandavas in front of him. Meanwhile, the Pandavas arrive in Hastinapur. Gandhari assumes that Draupadi is the first daughter-in-law of the Kuru family. However, Arjun informs Gandhari that Bheem is married to Hidimba, and is blessed with a son. On Gandhari's insistence, the Pandavas come forward with Draupadi.

Bhishma questions the Pandavas about their ethics. He declares that Yudhishthir has no right to the throne for the sin he has committed. Vidur tries to make him understand the circumstances in which the Pandavas married Draupadi. Finally, Draupadi decides to speak up.

Draupadi decides to prove her innocence and that of her husbands by making the sun accept holy water from her. After the sun accepts it, she requests Bhishma to forgive and bless the Pandavas. In the court, amidst Yudhishthir and Duryodhan's argument over who deserves the throne of Hastinapur, Dhritarashtra takes his decision.

Dhritarashtra announces death sentence for Arjun as he raised his weapon against Duryodhan in the court. Yudhishthir informs him that he cannot punish Arjun for challenging Duryodhan. Duryodhan and his brothers accept Arjun's challenge, but Bhishma stops them. Later, Vidur surprises everybody with his suggestion.

Duryodhan and Dushyasan convince Dhritarashtra that Vidur and Bhishma will not let Duryodhan be the king of Hastinapur and provoke him to punish the Pandavas. Dhritarashtra orders the Pandavas' arrest. Instead of spending the rest of their life in prison, Draupadi suggests that the Pandavas fight for themselves.

Bhishma is furious at Dhritarashtra for getting the Pandavas arrested. He orders the soldiers to release the Pandavas or fight with him. He also threatens to leave Hastinapur, if Dhritarashtra refuses to appoint Yudhishthir as his successor. What will Dhritarashtra do?

Bhishma informs Dhritarashtra that he will leave with Yudhishthir after the partition. Shakuni suggests Dhritarashtra to stop him, as all of Hastinapur is loyal to him. Dhritarashtra emotionally blackmails him to promise to be with the Kauravas always. What will Bhishma do?

Dhritarashtra announces Yudhishthir as the independent king of Khandavprastha, and provides him with 1 lakh cows and 1 lakh gold coins. However, Dhritarashtra informs Yudhishthir that his kingdom should be affiliated to Hastinapur. How will the Pandava brothers react to Dhritarashtra's next order?

The Pandavas are dejected on learning that they have to leave behind Kunti and Bhishma. Kunti asks Draupadi to guide the Pandavas and instructs her sons to obey Yudhishthir. As the Pandavas leave for Khandavprastha, many residents of Hastinapur join them.

Duryodhan is tensed seeing the large number of people leaving with Yudhishthir. Shakuni consoles him and tells him that he can take back Khandavprastha after the Pandavas develop it.

Takshak attacks the Pandavas and the citizens of Hastinapur for entering his territory. The Pandavas fight back but lose many of their people. After being defeated by Arjun, Takshak goes to Lord Indra seeking his protection. Will Arjun have to defeat Lord Indra to save the citizens of Hastinapur?

Arjun sets the jungle on fire. Indradev decides to extinguish it with rain but Arjun adds another layer of fire. Indradev throws a rock at Arjun. He break it with his arrow. Then, Indradev uses Vajrayudha on Arjun. What will Arjun do next?

Arjun assures Indradev that he will protect the snakes and name the capital as Indraprastha. The snakes revive Yudhishthir's people. Agnidev blesses Arjun with a bow, Gandiv. At Hastinapur, Shakuni and Duryodhan decide to stop their citizens from going to Yudhishthir's kingdom.

Shakuni informs Dhritarashtra that the citizens of Hastinapur are relocating to Indraprastha, which will affect their revenue generation. Dhritarashtra puts a ban on their relocation. On Shakuni's advice, Karna manages to stop the citizens from leaving but how will he stop Kunti?

Dhritarashtra refuses to let Kunti visit Indraprastha as she disobeyed the laws of Hastinapur. On Vrushali's request, Karna promises to take her to Indraprastha. He tells Duryodhan to let him fulfil his promise and also let Kunti stay with her sons.

Kunti assures Vrushali that she will seek Gandhari's permission to go to Indraprastha. Karna meets Kunti and informs her that he has already got permission. Meanwhile, the Pandavas fume on learning that Dhritarashtra has not allowed Kunti to visit Indraprastha.

Karna informs the Pandavas that Kunti will not visit Indraprastha till Yudhishthir becomes an independent king. On Shakuni's provocation, Takshak steals the one lakh cows of the Pandavas before they reach Indraprastha. Arjun decides to bring the cows back but he needs the Gandiv for that.

Arjun takes his Gandiv from Draupadi's room and goes in search of the cows. He fights with Takshak and defeats him by confining him within a circle of fire. Arjun returns to Indraprastha with the cows. Now, he needs to pay for breaking his promise of never entering Draupadi's room.

Shakuni is happy as the Pandavas won't be able to perform Rajasuya Yagya because of Arjun. He suggests Duryodhan should learn gadayuddha from Balarama and marry Subhadra. While worshiping Lord Somnath, Arjun sees Duryodhan and Shakuni. Krishna tricks Shakuni in to touching Arjun's feet.

Subhadra informs Kunti that she does not want to marry Duryodhan. Kunti tells Subhadra that her decision might affect the political relationship between Dwarka and Hastinapur. Meanwhile, Krishna sends Subhadra to bring a saint to Dwarka from the Somnath temple. She is delighted to know the saint is Arjun.

The elders of the Kuru family arrive at Dwarka for Duryodhan and Subhadra's wedding. On reaching, they discover that Subhadra is missing. Later, Krishna explains Subhadra's state of mind and her intentions. Everybody is left shocked by what Krishna says.

Dhritarashtra warns Krishna that his army will attack Dwarka. Shakuni informs Krishna that the Pandavas will have to support them as they are not independent yet. Krishna asks Dhritarashtra to either accept Arjun's marriage or declare the Pandavas' land independent.

Balarama orders Arjun to either return to Dwarka or take Subhadra with him to Indraprastha. Draupadi learns that Arjun is returning to Indraprastha with Subhadra. She is sad as Arjun broke his oath. Subhadra decides to win over Draupadi. Will Subhadra and Arjun be forgiven?

Draupadi agrees to forgive Subhadra and Arjun and let them enter Indraprastha. Meanwhile, Shakuni advises Duryodhan to seek Jarasandh's help to defeat Krishna. Instead of helping them, Jarasandh orders his soldiers to arrest them.

Shakuni informs Duryodhan that if Jarasandh performs Rajasuya, then the Kuru kingdom will have to support him, and the Pandavas will have to fight against Krishna. However, Krishna is ready with his plan to defeat Jarasandh. He discusses it with Yudhishthir.

Jarasandh asks Karna to become the king of Malini, but he refuses. On Shakuni's suggestion, Duryodhan tries to persuade Karna to accept Jarasandh's offer. Later, Krishna, Arjun and Bheem arrive at Magadh, disguised as Brahmins. Krishna challenges Jarasandh to defeat Bheem in Malla-Yuddha.

Following Krishna's suggestion, Bheem rips Jarasandh's body into two parts, and throws them in opposite directions, which causes his death. At Indraprastha, Arjun learns about Subhadra's pregnancy and Krishna suggests Yudhishthir to perform Rajasuya at the earliest.

Duryodhan turns jealous on reaching Indraprastha. Karna and Shakuni are surprised too, seeing Mayasur's creation. Shishupal arrives there and trades insults with Duryodhan. Will they unite to fight Krishna and the Pandavas?

Duryodhan informs Shishupal that he will protect him if he ruins the Pandavas' Rajasuya. Later, Yudhishthir and Draupadi sit on the throne. To spoil their ceremony, Shishupal insults Krishna, Arjun and Bheem. As Krishna watches Shishupal complete his 100 mistakes, Yudhishthir asks him to leave.

At the Pandavas' Rajasuya, Duryodhan challenges Krishna to a fight. Vidur comes in between and informs him that if he tries to fight against the Pandavas, he will have to first face Bhishma. As part of the punishment, Yudhishthir orders Duryodhan and his associates to sacrifice their weapons, but Karna refuses.

Draupadi's remark hurts Duryodhan so much that he tries to commit suicide. He can only think of avenging his insult by humiliating the Pandavas. He apologises to Shakuni for insulting him earlier and asks Karna to attack Indraprastha.

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.

Dhritarashtra decides to return the Pandavas' kingdom to them. However, Duryodhan opposes this and Shakuni suggests they should be sent on Vanvaas for twelve years and Agyatvas for one year. Dhritarashtra agrees. Before leaving, the Pandava brothers promise that when they return, there will be the biggest war in history.

Draupadi locks herself in a room. Bheem fails to break the door open. Krishna arrives at Indraprastha. He asks Draupadi to forgive the Pandavas and tells her the difference between revenge and justice. Later, Yudhishthir asks Bheem to burn his hands that sinned.

Krishna tells Yudhishthir to prepare for a war as that is the only way to get justice. As the Pandavas leave for Vanvaas, Krishna declares this war to be the beginning of a new era. At Hastinapur, Gandhari is worried about Draupadi's curse and Krishna's support to the Pandavas.

Nakul goes to a lake to bring water, but does not return. One by one, other brothers go in search of him and don't return. Yudhishthir is shocked on seeing them dead. How did they die and what will Yudhishthir do to revive them?

Dharmraj blesses the Pandavas with a boon, which will help them in disguising themselves during their Agyatvas. The Pandavas separate themselves to achieve their goals. Arjun works hard to please Mahadev, while Bheem offers laddoos to Hanuman.

Maharishi Durvasa and his disciples arrive at Yudhishthir's hut for food. Draupadi and Yudhishthir panic as they do not have enough food. Meanwhile, Krishna arrives at Yudhishthir's hut and consumes the last grain of rice. What will Draupadi and Yudhishthir serve the Maharishi and his disciples?

Krishna suggests the Pandavas spend their Agyatvas in Virat's kingdom. An animal tries to attack Arjun, but he kills it. The tribal leader takes the credit for killing the animal. He challenges Arjun to defeat him in archery and sword fight. Does Arjun know who he will be fighting with?

Jayadrath kidnaps Draupadi. Arjun appears in front of him when he is about to meet Duryodhan. He takes Draupadi and Jayadrath away from Duryodhan's army. Yudhishthir instructs Bheem to kill Jayadrath but Arjun stops them.

Duryodhan sends his spies in search of the Pandavas. The Pandavas hide their weapons. Draupadi names Yudhishthir as Kank, so that he does not have to lie about his name. After eleven months, Duryodhan's spies return without any information. Where are the Pandava brothers?

Kank suggests that Virat should not rely on Keechak for the security of his kingdom. On Virat's wife Sudeshna's instruction, Draupadi (Sairandhri) serves alcohol to Keechak in his room but he misbehaves with her. Meanwhile, Bheem sends laddoos to his brothers and Draupadi as a sign to meet him.

Duryodhan, Shakuni and Dushyasan visit Virat's assembly. Shakuni suspects the Pandavas are in his kingdom. Keechak assures Duryodhan that he will help him find the Pandavas. Later, Keechak identifies Sairandhri as Draupadi and begins to blackmail her.

Bheem challenges Keechak to fight with him. But if he does, he will be recognised. Later, Duryodhan, Shakuni and Dushyasan find Keechak's dead body. Virat promises to punish Keechak's murderer. Then, he goes to the Pandavas and suggests that they escape as Duryodhan might attack his kingdom.

Matsya is under attack. The Pandavas and Virat fight together to keep it safe. Meanwhile, Shakuni informs Bhishma that Susharman, the King of Trigarta, has attacked Matsya from the other side. How does Arjun get back his Gandiv?

Arjun takes Bhishma's blessing and attacks Duryodhan, Dushyasan and Shakuni. On Duryodhan's insistence, Karna uses his Divyastra and Arjun retaliates with the same. Bhishma creates a wall between them and requests Arjun to stop the fight. Later, Bhishma informs Duryodhan that the Pandavas have completed their Agyatvas.

The Pandavas decide to wage a war against the Kauravas. However, to cross the Hastinapur gates, they need to go through Bhishma. Bound by his promise to Dhritarashtra, Bhishma orders the Pandavas to fight him or retreat. Will the Pandava brothers raise their weapon against Bhishma?

As the Pandavas leave to prepare for the war, Bhishma informs them that his blessings are with them but he will fight on the Kauravas' side. He also reminds them of the technique to defeat him. Meanwhile, Draupadi suggests the Pandavas take Krishna's advice on the war.

Shakuni takes Duryodhan and Dushyasan to meet Krishna and Balarama, and asks them for their support. At Dwarka, Abhimanyu showcases his warrior skills by breaking the Chakravyuha. Shakuni sees Balarama and Duryodhan fight. He goes to Krishna for help.

Duryodhan tries to win Balarama's confidence by sharing his sorrows with him. He requests Balarama not to support the Pandavas in the upcoming war. Balarama assures him that Krishna and his army will not raise arms against Hastinapur.

Balarama informs Duryodhan that he will help the person who meets Krishna first. Shakuni tells Duryodhan to approach Krishna before Arjun. Duryodhan sits beside Krishna's head, while Arjun sits at his feet. On waking, who will Krishna notice first?

Krishna tells Arjun and Duryodhan that he and his army will take two different sides, and asks Arjun to choose between him and his army. Arjun requests Krishna to be with him in the war. Duryodhan is delighted to have Krishna's army on his side and pokes fun at Arjun.

Draupadi fixes the date of the war. Yudhishthir conveys the same to the Kuru clan. Krishna tells Shakuni that Bhishma, Dronacharya and Karna will be killed by deception. Meanwhile, Dhritarashtra decides to take Jaimini's advice on the situation.

Maharishi Jaimini informs Dhritarashtra about the destruction of the Kuru clan. He also tells Gandhari that she can only save the life of one son. Who will she choose? Later, Krishna wants Abhimanyu to marry Uttara. He asks Virat for her hand.

Dhritarashtra has a nightmare. Vidur warns him that his nightmare might turn into reality. Gandhari asks Duryodhan not to wage war against the Pandavas. She suggests he apologise to Draupadi. At Indraprastha, Draupadi ties a thread on Abhimanyu's hand for his safety. But the thread breaks.

Prativindhya, Sutasom, Sutakarma, Satanika and Shrudhasena seek their mother Draupadi's blessings. The Pandava brothers are delighted on meeting their sons. Sudeshna informs Draupadi that Krishna has promised her that Uttara's son will be the King of Indraprastha.

Krishna asks Draupadi to decide whether to wage war or not. At home, Yudhishthir, Draupadi and their sons share some happy moments together. Seeing her family happy, Draupadi takes a decision about the war and informs Krishna of the same.

Dhritarashtra wishes to end the war and Bhishma guides him on how it can be achieved. Meanwhile, Shakuni is tense thinking about Krishna. He tries to convince Duryodhan not to wage the war. Later, Karna and Duryodhan inform Dhritarashtra that they will attack Matsya.

Shakuni advises Duryodhan on how to make the Pandavas compromise. In Virat's kingdom, Subhadra listens to the story of Krishna and Kans, in which Kans jails Devaki and Vasudeva. As per a prediction, their eighth child will kill Kans.

Kans kills Devaki's seven children. He instructs a soldier to inform him when Devaki delivers her eighth child. Lord Vishnu appears before Devaki and Vasudeva and seeks Devaki's permission to be born as her son. Devaki gives birth to her eighth child.

The prison doors open and the Yamuna makes way for Vasudeva. A seven-headed snake protects Vasudeva and the new born baby from the rain. Vasudeva gives the new born baby to his friend Nand and takes Nand's baby girl. The baby girl transforms into a goddess and tells Kans about his destiny.

The Gopis complain to Yashoda about Krishna stealing their butter and Yashoda worries about Krishna. Meanwhile, Nand frets about the taxes to be paid to Kans. They decide to relocate to Vrindavan. Krishna begins to reveal his powers.

Krishna and his friends ruin the yagna organised to pacify Indradev. Indradev is angry and it begins to rain heavily. Krishna lifts the Govardhan hill to provide shelter to his people and the cows. Indradev attacks the Govardhan hill.

Kans asks Devaki and Vasudeva about their eighth son. Vasudeva tells him that Balarama and Krishna are his sons. Kans instructs Akroor to bring them both to Mathura. Meanwhile, Yashoda discovers the truth about Krishna's real mother. However, Krishna tells Yashoda he loves her like his own mother.

Krishna reaches Mathura and asks Kans to release his parents and return the kingdom to Ugrasena. Kans challenges Krishna and Balarama to defeat Chanoor and Mushtik. They defeat them, but Kans is already ready with another challenge.

Krishna kills Kans in a fight and rescues Vasudeva and Devaki. He informs the Pandu family that war against Duryodhan is necessary for the wellbeing of the world. Shakuni tells Duryodhan to trap Krishna during his Hastinapur visit. Vidur reaches Virat's kingdom to negotiate with the Pandavas.

Vidur and Sanjay try to convince the Pandavas to negotiate with the Kauravas. As the Pandavas decide to send Krishna for the negotiation, the Kauravas plan to capture Krishna. Krishna reaches Hastinapur and assures Gandhari that he will try to stop the war.

Duryodhan requests Krishna to stay in his palace, but Krishna chooses another place. On Dhritarashtra's requests, Krishna suggests ways to prevent the war, but Duryodhan turns them down. Will Krishna succeed in making Duryodhan realise his mistakes?

Krishna requests Dhritarashtra to give five villages to the Pandavas. Duryodhan refuses to accept this proposal and instead, asks his soldiers to capture Krishna. The soldiers become unconscious and the chains holding Krishna fall away.

Duryodhan is scared seeing Krishna everywhere. Krishna tells Duryodhan that the entire Kuru family will be destroyed in the war. Duryodhan then vows to kill him. Krishna informs Gandhari that Duryodhan will not dare to wage war if Karna does not support him.

On Kunti's request, Krishna asks Karna not to join the war. Karna tells Krishna that he wishes to fulfil his duties towards Duryodhan. Krishna reveals the truth about his real parents, hoping that Karna will reconsider his decision. How will Karna react on learning the truth?

Radha informs Karna that she is not his biological mother and this depresses him. Vrushali tries to console him and also advises him to meet Kunti. Karna meets her and she asks him for a favour. Eventually, he regrets having to fight against the Pandavas.

Kunti apologises to Karna and requests him to take the Pandavas' side, but he tells her that he will not be disloyal to Duryodhan. Karna promises Kunti that he will not kill any of her sons other than Arjun. On learning about Duryodhan's decision, Yudhishthir instructs Arjun and Bheem to prepare their army.

Draupadi decides to stay on the battlefield with the Pandavas. Bhishma informs Vidur that the person who might be responsible for his death is in the Pandava army. Armies of the Pandavas and the Kauravas gather on the battlefield. Krishna declares that the war will begin after three days.

Duryodhan tells Krishna that he has unbeatable warriors like Bhishma, Dronacharya and Karna. Shikhandini tells Duryodhan that she, Dhrishtadyumna and Arjun can defeat their opponents. Soon after, Shakuni begins to read the rules of the war. Yudhishthir is tensed, but agrees to the rules.

When Shikhandini confronts Bhishma about not letting her participate in the war, he explains the reasons to her. Meanwhile, Duryodhan decides to protect himself with Karna's Kavach and Kundal. But according to Suryadev, during the war, Karna will have to give away his Kavach and Kundal.

Indradev, disguised as a Brahmin, asks Karna for his Kavach and Kundal. Later, he tells Krishna and Arjun that he will help them. Arjun suspects that the Brahmin is Indradev and that he might ask for Karna's weapons.

Indradev asks Karna to donate his Kavach and Kundal to him, or not participate in the war. Karna obeys him. Arjun tells Indradev that he will kill Karna anyway, but to kill a warrior deprived of his weapons may cast a doubt on his own abilities. So, Indradev blesses Karna with a divine weapon.

Duryodhan is not happy to learn that Karna donated his Kavach and Kundal. Shakuni advises Duryodhan to increase his army as Karna won't be able to protect them. Kunti sees Karna suffering with pain. Vrushali suggests Nakul and Sahadev should treat him. Will the Pandava brothers help their enemy?

As Nakul and Sahadev treat Karna, Dushyasan and Ashwatthama welcome Shalya. King Shalya informs the Pandavas that he has promised his support to Duryodhan. They are worried as Duryodhan's army has multiplied. Will the Pandavas agree to Krishna's plan of killing Bhishma?

Bhishma learns about Kunti and Karna's relationship and forbids Karna from fighting in the war. Duryodhan intervenes and Bhishma asks Duryodhan to choose between him and Karna. Who will Duryodhan choose, knowing that Bhishma will never kill the Pandavas?

Krishna decides to drive Arjun's chariot, in the war. The Kuru and the Pandavas' armies face each other on the battlefield. Yudhishthir requests Bhishma and Dronacharya, on behalf of the Pandavas, to either allow them to wage the war or sacrifice their weapons.

Bhishma blesses the Pandavas and orders them to attack. While Ved Vyas blesses Sanjay with the power to foresee how the war will progress, Krishna helps Arjun get a glimpse of the Kuru army. Arjun is sad at the thought of attacking Bhishma. Krishna steps in to guide him.

Krishna reminds Arjun of Duryodhan, Dushyasan and Shakuni's misdeeds, and the sacrifices of Bhishma and Dronacharya. He enlightens him about dharma and adharma. Thinking about the outcome of the war, Arjun drops his Gandiv. How will Krishna motivate him to fulfil his duty?

Krishna helps clear Arjun's mind by telling him about sattva, tamas and rajas. He explains to him how the body can be destroyed but the soul remains eternal. He further explains how everyone has to eventually face death and that, he shouldn't worry about it but prepare for war!

Krishna teaches Arjun to accept the consequences of the war, whether victory or defeat. He tells him about Karma Yoga and Moksha. Arjun learns that Krishna is almighty. Krishna asks him to submit himself to his duties as that is the path to a better future for the world.

Krishna educates Arjun about Bhakti Yoga and the relationship between dedication and devotion. Listening to Krishna, Arjun wishes to take his blessings in his real avatar. Krishna assumes Vishwaroop and blesses Arjun. Is Arjun now ready to attack the Kaurava army?

The armies clash. In Hastinapur, Sanjay narrates to Dhritarashtra how the war is unfolding. The Pandavas attack the Kuru army and destroy their first phase. On being reminded of his oath by Duryodhan, Bhishma decides to separate the Pandavas.

Arjun seeks Dronacharya's blessings. Bheem takes on Ashwatthama to save Prativindhya. Yudhishthir finds himself isolated on the battlefield. Bhishma asks Duryodhan to take the opportunity and capture Yudhishthir. How will the Pandava brothers save Yudhishthir?

Duryodhan, Dushyasan and Shakuni fight against Yudhishthir. Dhrishtadyumna asks Arjun to help Yudhishthir, while he tackles Drona. Shakuni persuades Shalya to attack Yudhishthir from behind. Who will save Yudhishthir?

The Pandavas decide to take revenge for Uttar's death. Yudhishthir plans to capture Duryodhan the next day. While Bhishma informs Duryodhan that the Pandavas will return stronger, Dhrishtadyumna announces that the Pandavas' army has suffered a huge loss.
