The Gods, the law, capitalism and politics jostle for power in this bold adaptation of the ancient Indian poem Mahabharata. Dramatised as a gripping family epic set in 21st century Mumbai, this series is powered by the tensions and rivalries of a turbulent business empire.

The battle to control Hasta Enterprises takes a tragic turn as it heads towards its gripping conclusion.

Padma’s single-minded desire for retribution suspends Dhruv between life and death as the mischievous Gopi plays further mind games, forcing Nyra to choose the path that will decide Dhruv’s fate.

Yash signs his half of Hasta Enterprises over to Nyra, believing she is the only one capable of leading the company into a new more enlightened era. His decision creates further division within the family as he shifts focus to a political career as a way to connect with the people of India, though political manoeuvring quickly dents his idealism.

Shaks finally learns the truth about his biological father, creating a conflict of loyalty between Dhruv and Yash and devastating his mother, Gita. Padma discovers a way to let go of her anger by diverting it into philanthropic causes supporting women impacted by assault and domestic violence.

As Dhruv’s control over his family and Hasta continues to slip through his fingers, he makes a last desperate attempt to reconnect with Padma. But the situation soon spirals out of control – will Gopi’s warnings come too late, or just in time?
