This play revolves around  three pivotal characters Duryodhan(Puneet Issar), Karan(Rahul Bhuchar) and Draupadi(Harleen rekhi). The arrogance Of Draupadi, The shrewdness Of Shakuni(Gufi Paintal), and the obstinacy of Duryodhan may have caused the conflict but under the debris of all Evil was Buried the forgotten story of true friendship, unconditional love, and selfless sacrifice ever witnessed by mankind.
