In Hastinapura, Atiratha and Radha find a baby floating in the river. In the palace, the impotent King Pandu is forced to abdicate the throne while his bastard half brother Vidura conspires with his queen Kunti. The blind King Dhritarashtra struggles against his autocratic uncle while the sage Vyasa fights desperately to avert a power struggle within the Kuru family. This is the saga of Mahabharata, as it has never been told before.

A semifinalist of SPFBO in 2020, Pradyutita has featured in the list of Before We Go Blog's List of South Asian and Indian Sub continental mythological fantasy books to read
