Sakuni invites Yudhishtira to play dice and Draupadi uproar...!

Episode#28

Back in Hastinapur, the Kaurava as were dismayed at witnessing the glory of Pandavas! Sakuni planned a dice game wherein the dices were especially made from Jarasandha bones and played to his tunes. Yudhishtira loved playing dice but was not very proficient and was easily defeated by the deceitful Sakuni. The Pandavas lost everything they possessed including their wife Draupadi.

Duryodhana laughed cruelly and ordered Dusshasana to drag Draupadi to the Dice hall, when Dusshasana crashed into her room, Draupadi was clad in a single clothe; he grabbed her by her loose hair and dragged her to Dice Hall, she tried to wrench free and run away, but she could not and he threw her on the floor in the presence of Dhritarashtra, Bhisma Pitamah, Drona, Kripa, Vidura, and Karna!

She wiped her tears, arranged her clothes, brace herself and like a wounded tigress, she stood up, held her head high and said vehemently, "I am the daughter of King Drupada and daughter-in-law of renowned king Pandu! I am married to the Pandavas who are powerful warriors, I am a mother of their sons, and how can you treat me like a maid?" with a harden face, her harsh words spread across the hall "If Yudhishtira had lost himself first, how could he offer me on stake?" That was the valid point and no one replied...!

She screamed  "Is this what you call as righteousness?" Is this a justice? If it does not exist here, this court ceases to stand for morality, for lawfulness! It is run by None other than a gang of rascals!" But no one came for her rescue; they sat with lowered eyes like a dead men without life, without sound or a whisper, only Vikarana the Kuru prince objected to this outrageous statement but being one of the Duryodhana younger brother, it fell on deaf ears.

Duryodhana shouted with full sarcasm "From now on Pandavas are our slaves, I command to forfeit whatever they possess and disrobe Draupadi."

Gandhari Curse to Krishna

Episode#78 "I curse you Krishna, if I have been a devoted and faithful wife, may my curse come true! Oh Krishna, mark my words - after 36 years from today, you will slay your own kinsmen akin to Pandavas and Kauravas! Your cousins, their sons, and grandsons will kill each other while you  Krishna, will wander alone in the woods and die a lonely and Ignominious death! Your dear ones shall run around the woods in desperation and grief exactly in the same manner as these women are doing now." Krishna allow Gandhari to spew her venomous fury out of her system and accepted the curse calmly and with Grace! He replied with a smiling face, "Your curse is preordained by fate. As none can destroy Yadavas, they are destined to slay each other and meet their destruction at their own hands." She looked at Draupadi "Look Draupadi, your hair is dyed with the blood of my son Dusshasana, but to get that blood, so much of rage was generated that it cost you the lives of your...

Vyasa

One winter evening, the sun was about to set and she was contemplating to return home but when elderly sage named Parasar requested her to leave him on the opposite shore. Finding improper to decline him, she envisaged her last trip for the sake of the sage, when they were in the middle of the river, the sage expressed his desire to make love to her and have a child by her, with fear and apprehension, she said "if I bear a child, no one will marry me".
