Witness the profound devotion and courage of Draupadi, the legendary Pandava queen, as depicted in various art forms across India. From the Cheer-Haran scene in Mahabharata, where Dushasana disrobes her during the swayamvara, to the Mariatal festival where devotees pay homage by suspending themselves from hooks, each representation tells a unique story. The intricate ivory miniature painting, the intense Carak Puja, the dramatic lithographs, and the grand Gopuram of Sri Mariamman temple all echo the strength and resilience of Draupadi. Amidst the Pancha Rathas at Mahabalipuram and the fiery ordeals of Nepal, her spirit continues to inspire awe and reverence.
