Vikarna is a character from the ancient Indian epic, the Mahabharata. He is one of the sons of Dhritarashtra, the blind king of Hastinapura, and Gandhari. Vikarna is known for his sense of justice and moral integrity, often standing out among his brothers, the Kauravas. During the infamous game of dice, Vikarna opposed the humiliation of his sister-in-law, Draupadi, showing his commitment to righteousness. Despite being part of the Kaurava faction, he is remembered for his courage to speak against wrongdoing, making him a complex figure in the epic's narrative.
