A Throw of Dice

In the midst of a fragile peace, two neighboring Indian kingdoms are on the brink of chaos as King Ranjit and his cousin King Sohat, who secretly harbors ambitions to claim Ranjit's throne, engage in a game of deception and power struggle.

King Sohat sees a chance to eliminate his young cousin King Ranjit and seize his kingdom, and with the help of a poisoned arrow, makes it look like a hunting accident. Ranjit is taken to a recluse healer's hut, where he recovers and falls in love with the healer's daughter Sunita, leading to their engagement. But Sohat has other plans, seeking to claim both Ranjit's kingdom and Sunita as his own bride. On the eve of the wedding, Sohat challenges Ranjit to a game of dice, with no intention of playing fairly.
