Episodes 46–50: The Dice Game

Shakuni, a master of gada (loaded dice), challenges Yudhishthira to a game of dice. Yudhishthira suffers from the addiction of gambling. He stakes his wealth, his kingdom, his brothers, himself, and finally—Draupadi. He loses everything. Episode 49 contains the most traumatic scene: Dushasana drags Draupadi into the court by her hair and attempts to disrobe her. Draupadi prays to Krishna, and a miracle occurs—her saree becomes endless. Bhima, in rage, vows to drink Dushasana’s blood and break Duryodhana’s thigh. The episode ends with Dhritarashtra granting Draupadi three boons, but the Pandavas are forced into 12 years of exile plus 1 year of Agyatavasa (living incognito).
