Urubhanga or Urubhangam, (Devanagari: ऊरुभङ्गम्), (English: The Breaking of the Thighs) is a Sanskrit play written by Bhasa in the 2nd or 3rd century CE. Based on the well-known epic, the Mahābhārata, by Vyasa, Urubhanga focuses on the story of the character Duryodhana during and after his fight with Bhima. Although Urubhanga contains the same core storyline as that in the Mahābhārata, Bhasa's altering of certain aspects results in a different presentation of the story. The most extreme of these alterations is Bhasa's portrayal of Duryodhana, who, in the Mahābhārata, is viewed as a villain, but in Urubhanga is given more human qualities. Bhasa's presentation of Duryodhana's side of the tale adds certain tragic elements to the play.

Kvankam "Urubhanga" enhavas la saman kernan historion kiel en Mahabarato, la ŝanĝo de kelkaj aspektoj fare de Bhasa rezultis en diferenca prezentado de la historio. La plej rimarkinda el tiuj ŝanĝoj estas la portreto fare de Bhasa de Durjodano, kiu, en la Mahabarato, aperas kiel maliculo, sed en "Urubhanga" ricevas pliajn humanajn kvalitojn.
