He had seven days left. He chose truth over escape.

In the twilight of the Dvapara Yuga, King Parikshit stood as the solitary guardian of the illustrious Pandava lineage. Born in the ashes of the Kurukshetra war and saved in the womb by the divine grace of Lord Krishna, his life was marked by destiny from his very first breath.

Yet even the most righteous of kings are bound by karma. Struck by an unyielding curse from a hermit boy, Parikshit was sentenced to perish by the venom of the serpent king Takshaka within seven sunrises.

Where ordinary rulers would have fortified their palaces, raised armies, or fled into hiding, Parikshit did something extraordinary: he renounced his crown, sat barefoot on the sacred banks of the Ganga, and surrendered to inquiry. Surrounding himself with sages and seekers, he listened intently to the profound wisdom of the Shrimad Bhagavatam as unveiled by Sage Shukadeva.

Parikshit — The Untold Story is a gripping, philosophical retelling of the king who refused to die in fear. It explores the timeless question: When time is running out, what truly matters? A journey through duty, destiny, detachment, and the eternal triumph of the soul.
