By MTG editorial	Host-A-Performance \| Schedule

17 is the number of times Krishna fought with Jarasandh in Mahabharat. Lord Buddha confronted evil Mara 17 times before attaining nirvana The battle of mahabharat happened for primarily 17 days where on the 17th day Pandavas killed Karan (the last commander of Kauravas) to ensure their victory. There are 17 main chapters in Geeta which talk of karma as a way to salvation, where in 18th tells about complete surrender to God. Humayun spent around 17 years in jungles before winning over his kindgdom back from Islam Suri. Maharana Pratap after loosing to Maan Singh and Akbar spent rest of his life to fight back hi kingdom which is roughly around 17 years. In the game of chess if king is the only survivor left, he gets 16 steps to save himself and if he succeeds he gets impunity.

Coincidence?

The crux of this lies in the 16 wars that have to be made before reaching the 17th War.

These 16 wars are crucial 16 lessons of life one should know before hitting victory else there is risk of falling back. Vaar satrah baar (The seventeenth war) is a play in poetry order which revolves around life of a king who is going through these 16 lessons. The king has lost 16 wars and each war brings a scar and a memory which makes him further prepared to face the enemy. And now he is planning for the ultimate 17th war.

Filled with un-dogged motivation, it is one hour of gripping entertainment which smoothly feeds in subconscious of the viewer the 17 lessons of war in life which are essential for victory.

The play is directed by Alakshendra Prabhakar. The play is written and performed by Kunal Hriday.
