Karna and duryodhan enter a tent near the south of the kaurava camp

"Mere bache!" Shakuni says enlightened

"Come inside mere bache and angraj! I was just about to call you! I have thought of a brilliant strategy to defeat those pandavas tomorrow!"

Karna looks at duryodhan and duryodhan looks back, before beginning

"Mamashree..." duryodhan hesitates

Seeing duryodhan, karna decides to step in for help

"Gandhar raj, there is something mitra wants to say in front of everyone... I think it would be best if no one interrupts him before he finishes..."

Gandhar raj listens to karna and shoots a curious glance at dury, raising his eyebrow and tilting his head slightly. His brain working fast, thinking of all the things suyo could say.. seeing the hesitance on duryodhan's face makes him even more curious

"What happened mere bache?" Shakuni questions as the remaining kauravas also look towards their jyesht anticipating an answer

"Mamashree... I want to withdraw from the war" duryodhan says confidently,





Pin drop silence... as if time had stopped. everyone had their own reactions... guru dron had his eyes bulging out in disbelief, the kauravas looking shocked and gandhar raj... after coming out of his initial shock, started to fume

"NEVER! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU DURYODHAN! WHAT DO YOU MEAN WITHDRAW?! HOW CAN YOU JUST WITHDRAW AFTER TH-those pandavas you... Duryodhan?" Shakuni says with disgust and disbelief written all over his face

Duryodhan looks at the others

"I wish to talk to mamashree alone"

Everyone slowly exits the tent except for karna

Shakuni looks at karna with disgust

"We want to speak alone! What are you still doing here? SUTPUTRA"

Karna keeps a stoic face

"Enough mamashree! Karna is not a sutputra!"

Shakuni looks at duryodhan with confusion..

Duryodhan then explains everything to shakuni about what happened

Shakuni was shocked to hear that karna was jyesht pandav but after listening to everything, he turned towards duryodhan and said

"So you're saying, you are going to withdraw just for jyesht pandav?" Shakuni says with disgust

"No, I'm going to withdraw for my mitra" duryodhan says firmly, standing his ground

Shakuni further tries to manipulate duryodhan into staying in the war. Though duryodhan does not oblige, after listening to shakuni for a while, karna steps in annoyed and angered

"What kind of mamashree are you gandhar raj? Instead of siding with your nephew for peace, you are trying to initiate war? Don't think I don't know about your promise gandhar raj"

All the colour drains off of shakuni's face

Duryodhan looks at karna confused

"What promise are you talking about mitra?"

Shakuni begins to panic

"Mitra, I want to talk to gandhar raj alone, till then you can go outside and explain everything to your brothers and guru dron"

Curiously and hesitantly duryodhan exits the tent

Once he leaves, karna shifts his gaze towards gandhar raj who looks angry yet worried at the same time
