कौरव कौन कौन पांडव, टेढ़ा सवाल है| दोनों ओर शकुनि का फैला कूटजाल है| धर्मराज ने छोड़ी नहीं जुए की लत है| हर पंचायत में पांचाली अपमानित है| बिना कृष्ण के आज महाभारत होना है, कोई राजा बने, रंक को तो रोना है|

The Game of Dice
This profound work captures the most tragic turning point in the Mahabharata, the fateful game of dice that sealed the destiny of the Kuru dynasty. We witness the quiet, intense tension between Yudhishthira and the wily Shakuni, their expressions heavy with the weight of impending catastrophe. The artist invites us to contemplate the fragility of dharma when faced with deceit and worldly attachment. It is a moment frozen in time, reflecting the somber realization that an entire civilization is unraveling over a simple checkered board. The masterful use of light and royal regalia contrasts sharply with the grim seriousness of the confrontation, grounding the myth in a deeply human, emotional reality.
