Two weeks before the war, Krishna confronts Karna with the truth of his birth and offers him an impossible choice that compels him to fight on his brothers' side. On his dearest friend's opponent side.

Karna and Duryodhan are devastated while the Pandavas, particularly Arjun, seethe at Madhav's incomprehensible move which disregards their competence.

In the war camp, two boys in their teens strike up an innocent friendship defying their fathers' hatred for each other.

Entering the battle, both sides are a mess. Lord Krishna, however, always works for the greater good.
