Story

The Mahabharata’s most infamous moment, this song captures the betrayal, deception, and downfall of the Pandavas at the hands of Shakuni, the master manipulator.

🔥 The Fatal Wager:

In the royal court of Hastinapura, a game of dice is set between Yudhishthira (the righteous king) and Shakuni (the cunning mastermind).
Shakuni’s loaded dice ensure Yudhishthira loses everything—his kingdom, his brothers, himself.
In a final, desperate wager, he stakes Draupadi, his wife, unknowingly inviting the greatest humiliation in history.
Draupadi is dragged into the court, insulted before kings and warriors, but she summons Krishna, who saves her honor.
With this act, the Kurukshetra War becomes inevitable—retribution is coming!

Lyrics

Game of Dice

The hall is silent, the dice are cast,
 A brother’s fate, a wager vast.
 Honor bound, yet blind to guile,
 A king undone by a serpent’s smile.

"Fortune turns, a fickle friend,"
 "In ivory hands, the world will bend!"

Roll the bones, watch them fall,
 Kingdoms crumble at fortune’s call!
 Bound by fate, deceived by vice,
 The world is lost—to a game of dice!

Ivory whispers, destiny sways,
 One by one, I take your days.
 Pawn to knight, the board is set,
 Your throne, your life—place your bet!

"Fortune turns, a fickle friend,"
 "In ivory hands, the world will bend!"

Roll the bones, watch them fall,
 Kingdoms crumble at fortune’s call!
 Bound by fate, deceived by vice,
 The world is lost—to a game of dice!

"Dragged before the court, my cries denied,"
 "No justice here, no god presides."
 "If no man stands, then hear my vow,"
 *"The price of shame is war—prepare them now!"

Roll the bones, watch them fall,
 Kingdoms crumble at fortune’s call!
 Bound by fate, deceived by vice,
 The world is lost—to a game of dice!

 "If no man stands, then hear my vow,"
 *"The price of shame is war—prepare them now!"
