Mahabharata stands as one of the significant Smriti texts and Sanskrit epics from ancient India, alongside the Ramayana, both esteemed in Hinduism. It tells the story of the Kurukshetra War, a conflict over succession between two sets of royal cousins, the Kauravas and the Pandavas, and the events that follow.
