Story

Edit
Shatranj is a 1993 Indian drama film directed by Satyajit Ray. It tells the story of two aristocrats in the court of a powerful king, set in the pre-independence era of Awadh. The two friends, Mirza Sajjad Ali (Sanjeev Kumar) and Mir Roshan Ali (Saeed Jaffrey), are well known for their love of shatranj, or chess, and often spend days playing it in the palace gardens.

Unable to bear the thought of his kingdom's demise, the two friends decide to take matters into their own hands and make a desperate attempt to save it. They devise a plan to keep the king dis...
