Mahabharat

It's the opinion of the penal council, Your Highness

the losses that these people have incurred

deems justice mandatory.

Council-Head, please ask them of the impairments.

Their trust has been impaired, Your Highness!

They trusted the royal family and the king to protect them.

Their trust was priceless, Your Highness.

In order to reinstate the trust

let such wealth be bestowed upon them, grandsire.

That wouldn't suffice alone, Your Highness.

In my opinion, the princes should apologise to them.

This deed will strengthen their trust in justice

and it will serve as a moral lesson for the princes too.

Your Highness! Your Highness!

Excuse me, Your Highness! Excuse me...

Your Highness! Your Highness!

There is no need to worry anymore, Your Highness!

I was aware that on hearing about Duryodhan

you'd be quite worried, Your Highness.

Hence, I hurried over here so soon, Your Highness.

There is nothing to worry about.

I have already spoken to the physician, Your Highness.

The wound will heal soon, Your Highness.

In no time.

What are you rambling about, Shakuni?

What wound? Whose wound?

Your beloved Duryodhan's life

is out of danger, Your Highness.

What!

Duryo...

Is Duryodhan wounded?

How? Answer me, Shakuni.

Who dared spill my son's blood!

The revolt that these fishermen created, Your Highness

counted in every one of them.

Every one of them was attacking with a weapon, Your Highness.

Who's weapon it was that injured Duryodhan

will be impossible to find out, Your Highness.

Son! Duryodhan!

Your Highness... For attacking the prince...

I mean, the attackers of Prince Duryodhan

should have justice, right?

Justice?

The ones who spilled my son's blood will have but one fate!

Off with all their heads!

But, Your Highness... - But, Dhritarashtra.

This would be atrocious.

Justice has been dispensed.

Let the orders be followed.

Forgive us, Your Highness. Please do not take our lives.

Spare us from a death sentence, Your Highness!

Forgive us, Your Highness!

Spare us from a death sentence, Your Highness!

Spare us from a death sentence, Your Highness!

Spare us from a death sentence, Your Highness!

Dhritarashtra, what sort of justice is this?

I have inspected Duryodhan myself.

He is not grievously wounded at all.

My son's blood has been spilled, Queen Mother.

Instead of thinking about the gravity of their crimes

why are you concerned about the severity of his wounds?

They have tried to revolt.

They have intended for the death of the Prince.

Do these crimes seem so trivial to you, Queen Mother?

Even if the accusations against them are true

they aren't as grave to effect a death penalty to so many!

I've been reigning for many years now, Queen Mother.

I've at least become as wise to not require your advice.

Wait, Dhritarashtra.

Such stoicism doesn't befit a ruler.

Your father Shantanu

was always a loving and kind-hearted ruler.

Not one inspiring fear.

Bhishma.

Bhishma, please say something to Dhritarashtra.

Right after the coronation

the king's word holds as good as the law of the God.

I had told you of the same earlier itself, Queen Mother.

But I can

appeal to His Highness.

I appeal to you too, Your Highness.

I appeal to you too.

I may not be a citizen of the kingdom

yet I appeal, Your Highness.

Please heed her advice.

Your Highness, you must surely recall

that these fishermen are Mother Queen's kin.

Punishing them makes her heart writhe in agony, Your Highness.

Mother Queen hasn't forgotten her childhood yet.

Prince Shakuni, that's an act of impudence to the Queen Mother.

How can

reminding one of his/her clan be a crime, Chief Minister?

Your Highness, so what have you finally decided?

Keeping in mind the feelings of Mother Queen

I change my decision, Chief Minister.

The fishermen are hereby banished from this province.

Nowhere in the entire Kuru province

do they have permissions to reside anymore.

Let the orders be followed.

The Queen Mother or His Highness

aren't questionable by us.

But you are my sister, hence I am asking you this.
