Mahabharata, the largest epic of India, is a treasure for every Indian in its political, moral and spiritual values. The characters and their ups and downs in life, leading to the fatal war of Kurukshetra still draws our interest to know even more about them. But within all these restlessness, battles and conflicts, we somehow tend to forget few small yet delicate moments which must have taken place in Dwapara yuga but were not penned by Maharishi Vyasa. Have we ever thought of how the loving Pandava family of Indraprastha would have celebrated one of its member's birthday? Situations did change in their lives from happy to sad, yet those moments did come every year. How would have been their celebrations when they were reunited after the thirteen years of exile? How did the children feel for their parents? What would have been a Princess's reaction while garlanding the man of her dream in her swayamvara? What had Yudhishthira felt during exile, repenting for his mistake of a short while? How was the love-filled journey of the great five heroes and their heroine, since yugas and kalpas? This book is a collection of short stories that capture such forgotten, non-recorded moments from the great epic. With these small flowers of their immortal tales I present my offering to the noble characters of Mahabharata. Cover credit: @_justloveharry_33
