P.K. Balakrishnan and Jayalekshmy P.K.
Following the Mahabharata war, when everyone learns the truth about Karna, an internal battle starts. Draupadi becomes restless: her tryst with reality begins. Her pride for her husbands’ valour erodes. Life as she had understood slowly begins to lose meaning. This Malayalam classic centres on Karna, the most criticized yet admired character of the Mahabharata, treacherously killed by his half-brother Arjuna. His life story unfolds through the eyes of Draupadi, in flashbacks and tales she hears from those around her in the aftermath of the battle of Kurukshetra.
Translated from Malayalam.
