Narrated by Kumar Varun

After winning the war, Yudhishthira becomes king, but there's no joy in his victory. In this episode, we explore how the Pandavas treated Dhritarashtra and Gandhari with deep respect, how Bhima struggled with forgiveness, and how Yudhishthira ruled not like a conqueror, but like a man carrying the burden of loss. A quiet, emotional chapter of what it truly means to lead with dharma.
