Duryodhan informs Shishupal that he will protect him if he ruins the Pandavas' Rajasuya. Later, Yudhishthir and Draupadi sit on the throne. To spoil their ceremony, Shishupal insults Krishna, Arjun and Bheem. As Krishna watches Shishupal complete his 100 mistakes, Yudhishthir asks him to leave.

At the Pandavas' Rajasuya, Duryodhan challenges Krishna to a fight. Vidur comes in between and informs him that if he tries to fight against the Pandavas, he will have to first face Bhishma. As part of the punishment, Yudhishthir orders Duryodhan and his associates to sacrifice their weapons, but Karna refuses.

Draupadi's remark hurts Duryodhan so much that he tries to commit suicide. He can only think of avenging his insult by humiliating the Pandavas. He apologises to Shakuni for insulting him earlier and asks Karna to attack Indraprastha.
