Depiction of the battle of Kurukshetra in the Kalamkari painting is amazing as the figures of the Lord Krishna and his friend Arjuna plus the horses are given a refine treatment in the Klamkari painting. The four horses are painted white, green, yellow and gray, respectively. Lord Krishna is painted indigo. When Arjuna refused to fight against his kith and kins in the battle of Kurukshetra, Lord Krishna showed him his real image as the ruler of the Universe and explained to Arjuna that we have to do our own duty (Karma).

The effects are destined to happen. His sermons are compiled in the form of the Great Geeta. Lord Krishna explained Arjuna how He takes birth as different incarnations at different points of time to safeguard his disciples from the impending danger of the destruction of dharma.

Kalamkari is an art that involves weaving and hand block printing apart from painting. The figures with rounded shapes and border designs are typical of kalamkari.
