Shakuni is considered to be the most clever and scheming character of Mahabharata. You must be aware that Shakuni was the brother of Gandhari and the maternal uncle of the Kauravas, due to which the Mahabharata war took place. It was Shakuni who sowed the seed of enmity towards the Pandavas in Duryodhana's mind and got the Mahabharata war fought between the Kauravas and the Pandavas. After which the entire Kuru dynasty was destroyed. But do you know what was so special about Shakuni's dice due to which the Pandavas did not get a single win in gambling?
Shakuni wanted to take revenge on Bhishma Pitamah.
After all, why did Shakuni do all this deliberately, why did he destroy the family of his nephews and sister? One story in this regard is that he did not want his sister Gandhari to marry Dhritarashtra. Under the pressure of Bhishma, Gandhari had to marry Dhritrashtra, so to take revenge, she started living in Hastinapur and started plotting. The second part of the story is very surprising. Once Bhishma's grandfather came to know such a truth about Shakuni's sister Gandhari which made Bhishma angry. Shakuni did not want this to be true and he knew this even before Gandhari's marriage.
For this Bhishma put Shakuni's entire family in prison. Everyone in the jail was given so much food that they gradually died of hunger, when all Shakuni's brothers started fighting among themselves for food, then his father decided that from now on all the food would be given to only one person. Will go. We will all give our lives to save the man who will avenge the injustice done to us. Shakuni was the youngest but was very clever and intelligent so he got all the food. To ensure that Shakuni does not forget the injustice done to his family, everyone together broke Shakuni's leg due to which Shakuni later started limping.
Dice were made from father's bones.
When Shakuni's father died in Bandi Graha, he saw Shakuni's interest in backgammon and asked him to make dice from his bones. These will fill me with so much anger that no one will be able to defeat you in the game of backgammon. It was because of these dice made from his father's bones that Shakuni always managed to defeat the Pandavas, causing them to lose everything.
