Mahabharat

Brother had said

where the Sudarshana Chakra fails to work

is where the melody of flute does.

He had also told me

that only if I bear humility in my heart

will I be able to win over the High Queen.

Sister-in-law.

No!

You cannot address me by that term.

I'm not addressing you as 'sister-in-law'

but you will address me as one.

Sister-in-law!

Please pardon my husband.

I have given you

all that I had with me.

Now, please allow us to enter the city.

Unfortunate is he

who cannot revere Madhav's flute.

Do proceed to the gates of the city.

Let me make preparations to welcome both of you.

"This is such a complex matter of rights."

"This is a matter of honour."

"It seems to be"

"on the verge of success."

"My heart must remain steadfast"

"and this is a vow I must fulfil."

"My heart will remain steadfast"

"and this is the purpose of my life."

May you be blessed with a son, Subhadra.

May the Almighty make your son

inherit the glory and valour

his father possesses.

Panchali...

I have wronged you.

I hope you will pardon me.

I've accepted the peculiarities of my fate, My Lord

but my heartache will fade away

the day I comprehend the meaning of such fate.

Madhav had ordered me to get married, Panchali.

The future of the entire Aryan region

rested on this marriage.

Madhav had told me so.

And brother Balaram had said...

I am not asking you the reason, My Lord.

I wish to know what it means.

Man decides why he does certain things

but its meaning...

Its meaning is decided by the Almighty.

It meant only one thing...

The subjects of the entire Aryan region

deserve to be happy and contented

and free from exploitation.

And unrighteousness needs to be eradicated from the world.

All this is possible

only when brother Yudhishthira

becomes the emperor of the Aryan region

and you

become the Empress of the Aryan region.

Mother's orders

Madhav's wish

and our efforts

are propelling us towards this goal.

If that is the case, My Lord

then my heartache will fade away

the day when, in order to realise this meaning

you will take the first step.

The road to the 'Rajsuya Yajna' of Indraprastha

has many obstacles in it.

Please begin to get rid of them, My Lord.

Uncle...

We must approach Shishupal of Chedi for aid.

He is an enemy of Vasudeva Krishna.

No, my child. No.

Even if you assemble an army of monkeys

you will not be able to fight a lion.

Shishupal is foolish.

He deems verbal abuses to be weapons.

Krishna can crush him in a single moment.

The Yadavas are afraid

only of King Jarasandha.

Krishna had killed his own uncle Kansa.

Kansa was the son-in-law of Jarasandha.

In order to exact his revenge

King Jarasandha had attacked the Yadavas several times

and left them terrorised.

In the end, the Yadavas had to leave Mathura

and flee to Dwaraka.

My child, you are not acquainted with King Jarasandha's might.

But, uncle...

Why would Jarasandha help us?

We are not going to approach him for help.

We are going to seek his refuge.

I, the Crown Prince of Hastinapur

am to seek his refuge?

Indeed, my child!

Indeed.

The climbers of a forest seek the refuge of a tree

and then, drain the nutrients of that very tree.

This is politics.

If you wish to conquer

the entire Aryan region someday and become its emperor

then you must

seek the refuge of King Jarasandha today.

If you wish to defeat Krishna

and stop the 'Rajsuya Yajna' of Indraprastha

then only King Jarasandha will make that possible.

If Jarasandha kills the Yadavas

then how would it benefit us, uncle?

If you cannot break a stick

then you must

cleave it

right through the middle.

If the Pandavas

and the Yadavas

are separated

then breaking them

will be easier.
