Mahabharat

But brother Arjun

if you leave the city

then there will be no Rajsuya 'Yajna.'

Sahadev

if the cows are not brought back safely

then there will be no reverence of the city.

We need those one lakh cows

for the reverence of the city.

But brother, think about the future as well.

How will you live by yourself for so many years?

And in the meantime, without your protection

what will become of Indraprastha, brother?

Duties build the future, Sahadev

and not the other way around.

And how can you be worried about the future of Indraprastha?

You can see the future, can you not?

No one can ever see the future clearly, brother.

But I have a bad feeling

that Indraprastha is far from attaining peace.

Something disastrous is going to happen here.

And at a time like this

if the city is not protected by you then...

Please let me go get the cows!

Sahadev!

Takshak is an illusory being, Sahadev.

You do not even have the weapons bestowed by the Gods.

You will not be able to defeat Takshak.

I have to do this.

We need to conduct the reverence of the city soon.

We must ensure that brother Yudhishthir becomes King soon!

But think about his situation as well, brother.

When he finds out

that you have made such a big sacrifice to make him King

what will his state of mind be, brother?

Had we been five

this would have been my sacrifice for him.

But we are one, Sahadev.

I am making this sacrifice for myself.

Let me go, Sahadev. - No, brother.

I can go to Panchali's chamber

and get the Gandiva for you.

I shall perform this penance.

Wise men say that when one is altruistic with food

and selfish with penance

only then does one's body and soul

stay healthy.

Let me be selfish today.

What could have happened

that My Lord had to break his oath?

What happened, Sahadev?

Brother Yudhishthir

Takshak stole the cows coming here from Hastinapur.

Brother Arjun has gone after him.

Nakul, the venom needs to be drawn out of the soldiers.

Go and wake the serpents up.

Brother Bheem, brother Arjun has said that you

must make arrangements to protect the city.

Let's go, Nakul.

Bheem, I shall come with you.

'The serpents shown in this scene'

'were generated using computer graphics.'

No serpent can ever escape the circle of fire, Takshak.

If you are willing to take my refuge

then I shall extinguish the fire.

Take your refuge!

The refuge of a human?

No.

Shoot me with your arrow, son of Pandu.

Kill me.

I cannot do that.

I have taken the oath of not killing serpents.

But until you give into fatigue

and accept your defeat

I shall fight you.

I accept my defeat at the moment

son of Pandu.

Take your cows with you.

But our enmity has not ended yet.
