Plot summary
Mahabharat presents the story of the throne of Hastinapura, the kingdom ruled by the Kuru clan. The Kaurava and the Pandava branches compete for rulership. Although the Kaurava is the senior branch of the family, Duryodhana, the eldest Kaurava, is younger than Yudhisthira, the eldest Pandava. Both Duryodhana and Yudhisthira claim to be first in line to inherit the throne.
When Bhishma Pitamah asked for Gandhari's hand for marriage for blind Dhritarashtra; Shakuni was furious. Though later he agreed; he promised himself that he would destroy The Kuru Race. He sowed the seeds of the climactic battle of Kurukshetra during the boyhood days of the Kauravas and Pandavas by poisoning the mind of Duryodhana against the Pandavas. The struggle culminates in the Kurukshetra War. The battle produces conflicts of kinship and friendship, and instances of family loyalty and duty taking precedence over what is right.
