S3 #3: Game of Dice: Draupadi’s Humiliation, and the Fall of the Pandavas
Description
In one of the most dramatic episodes of the Mahabharata, the Pandavas face their greatest downfall — not in battle, but in the royal court of Hastinapura.
In this intense episode of Mythical Masala with Neev, we journey through the infamous Game of Dice, where Yudhishthira’s honor, Draupadi’s dignity, and the fate of the entire Kuru dynasty hang on the roll of rigged dice. As Shakuni cheats, Duryodhana gloats, and Draupadi is dragged into court, the silence of the elders is louder than thunder.
From Bhima’s terrifying vow to Krishna’s divine intervention, this is the story of how injustice leads to exile — and how quiet fury becomes a promise for revenge.
A powerful retelling for families and young listeners who want to explore the emotional core of Indian mythology — with heart, drama, and mythological masala.
