As the rishis and the Pandavas move about in the forest, they see Ashwatthama and his army. To stay hidden from them, Yudhishthir takes Kunti and his brothers deep into the jungle, while Arjun distracts them. The Pandavas enter Hidimba's magical jungle.

Duryodhan is crowned as the new King of Hastinapur. He takes Bhishma and Gandhari's blessings. As the Pandavas arrive at Vyasa's ashram, Draupadi worries about her Swayamvar. Krishna advises her to seek answers from Lord Shiva.

The Pandavas take shelter in a potter's house. The potter informs them about Draupadi's Swayamvar. The Pandavas decide to help him by collecting mud for him. Arjun and Bheem visit the temple before digging. This is where Lord Shiva answers Draupadi's prayer by showing her a glimpse of Arjun.

While Bheem and Arjun return to the potter's house, the wheels of their cart get stuck in the mud. While taking out the wheel, Duryodhan comes face-to-face with Bheem. Will he recognise him? Later, Draupadi learns about the saint she saw in the temple.

Rukmi, Duryodhan, Karna and Shakuni arrive at the venue of Draupadi's Swayamvar. Dhrishtadyumna creates a fish in the sky. Drupad asks the invitees to target the eye of the fish while looking only at its reflection in the water. Shakuni suggests that Karna should win the competition for Duryodhan.

Drupad welcomes Krishna to Draupadi's Swayamvar. Krishna asks Karna not to support what is wrong. The invited kings fail to hit the target. Krishna informs Drupad and Draupadi that only Arjun and Karna can accomplish the task.

Dhrishtadyumna stops Karna from taking aim and tells him that he has to participate for himself, not for others. Karna tries to defend Duryodhan, but in vain. Duryodhan asks Karna to prove his capabilities and marry Draupadi. Just when Karna lifts the bow, Draupadi stops him and announces her decision.

As Draupadi stops Karna from participating in the competition, the Pandavas arrive at the Swayamvar. Krishna convinces Drupad to allow the Brahmins to participate in the competition. Drupad hesitates but later agrees. Which one of the Pandavas will take aim?

Shakuni is shocked on seeing the Pandavas alive. Arjun and Draupadi exchange garlands. Shakuni provokes the kings by saying that it is an insult to them that a Brahmin has married a princess. As the couple leave the palace, Krishna gives five stones to Draupadi as a gift.

As Arjun, Draupadi and Bheem leave Panchal, Bhishma asks Vidur to bring the Pandavas back to Hastinapur. Later, Arjun returns home with Draupadi. Kunti assumes that her sons have returned with alms and orders that whatever they have got must be shared between the brothers.

Kunti passed her order without realising she was talking about Draupadi. She apologises to her and asks Arjun to ignore her previous order. But Arjun cannot. He requests Draupadi to marry his brothers. Will Draupadi agree?

Draupadi is disheartened with Arjun's decision. She remembers Krishna's advice and agrees to marry the Pandavas. Drupad gets furious with the Pandavas when he hears about this. Drupad decides to bring Draupadi back to Panchal.

Ved Vyas informs Kunti about the fear amongst the people of Hastinapur. On his insistence, she decides to return to Hastinapur and get Yudhishthir appointed as the king. Later, a furious Drupad instructs his army to attack the Pandavas when they come to his palace. Krishna reveals their true identity to Drupad.

Drupad is shocked on learning the true identities of the Brahmins. On Krishna's advice, Drupad welcomes them. Later, Draupadi shares her sorrows with Krishna. He comforts her by telling her that whenever she is in need of his help, he will appear.

Shakuni confronts Karna for not competing in the Swayamvar. He suggests Duryodhan should become the king of Hastinapur before Dhritarashtra learns about the Pandavas. With Bheem's grand announcement, Draupadi is married to the Pandava brothers.

Shakuni informs Dhritarashtra that Drupad humiliated the Kauravas and hence Duryodhan has decided to perform Ashvamedha yagna. However, Gandhari tells Duryodhan that only a king can perform Ashvamedha yagna. Duryodhan forces Dhritarashtra to crown him king of Hastinapur.

Drupad, Krishna and Dhrishtadyumna bid farewell to the Pandavas and Draupadi. In Hastinapur, Dhritarashtra and Gandhari are upset, thinking about Duryodhan. He decides to appoint Duryodhan as his successor. Just when Duryodhan is about to be crowned, Bhishma stops the ceremony.

Bhishma informs Dhritarashtra that the Pandavas are alive. Dhritarashtra tells Bhishma that he will appoint Duryodhan as the king, if he fails to bring the Pandavas in front of him. Meanwhile, the Pandavas arrive in Hastinapur. Gandhari assumes that Draupadi is the first daughter-in-law of the Kuru family. However, Arjun informs Gandhari that Bheem is married to Hidimba, and is blessed with a son. On Gandhari's insistence, the Pandavas come forward with Draupadi.

Bhishma questions the Pandavas about their ethics. He declares that Yudhishthir has no right to the throne for the sin he has committed. Vidur tries to make him understand the circumstances in which the Pandavas married Draupadi. Finally, Draupadi decides to speak up.

Draupadi decides to prove her innocence and that of her husbands by making the sun accept holy water from her. After the sun accepts it, she requests Bhishma to forgive and bless the Pandavas. In the court, amidst Yudhishthir and Duryodhan's argument over who deserves the throne of Hastinapur, Dhritarashtra takes his decision.

Dhritarashtra announces death sentence for Arjun as he raised his weapon against Duryodhan in the court. Yudhishthir informs him that he cannot punish Arjun for challenging Duryodhan. Duryodhan and his brothers accept Arjun's challenge, but Bhishma stops them. Later, Vidur surprises everybody with his suggestion.

Duryodhan and Dushyasan convince Dhritarashtra that Vidur and Bhishma will not let Duryodhan be the king of Hastinapur and provoke him to punish the Pandavas. Dhritarashtra orders the Pandavas' arrest. Instead of spending the rest of their life in prison, Draupadi suggests that the Pandavas fight for themselves.

Bhishma is furious at Dhritarashtra for getting the Pandavas arrested. He orders the soldiers to release the Pandavas or fight with him. He also threatens to leave Hastinapur, if Dhritarashtra refuses to appoint Yudhishthir as his successor. What will Dhritarashtra do?

Bhishma informs Dhritarashtra that he will leave with Yudhishthir after the partition. Shakuni suggests Dhritarashtra to stop him, as all of Hastinapur is loyal to him. Dhritarashtra emotionally blackmails him to promise to be with the Kauravas always. What will Bhishma do?

Dhritarashtra announces Yudhishthir as the independent king of Khandavprastha, and provides him with 1 lakh cows and 1 lakh gold coins. However, Dhritarashtra informs Yudhishthir that his kingdom should be affiliated to Hastinapur. How will the Pandava brothers react to Dhritarashtra's next order?

The Pandavas are dejected on learning that they have to leave behind Kunti and Bhishma. Kunti asks Draupadi to guide the Pandavas and instructs her sons to obey Yudhishthir. As the Pandavas leave for Khandavprastha, many residents of Hastinapur join them.

Duryodhan is tensed seeing the large number of people leaving with Yudhishthir. Shakuni consoles him and tells him that he can take back Khandavprastha after the Pandavas develop it.
