Arjun and Subhardra after he kidnaps her. Balram was angered
by Arjun’s actions to kidnap her and ordered his army to destroy the Pandavas
but Krishna stopped him and convinced him not to by explaining their love for
each other.
Subhadra announced she was going to have Arjun’s baby named
Abhimanyu. Arjun told Subhadra how to escape chakravyuh and the baby learned
every word but because Subhadra fell asleep Arjun didn’t complete the story and
Abhimanyu didn’t hear the end of the story.
Shishupal who insults Krishna and humiliates the pandavas
interrupts the crowing of Yudhishthir. Krishna slays Shishupal and crowns
Yudhishthir the king.
Duryodhan was embarrassed wanted revenge on the Pandavas. He
couldn’t fight them so instead he decided to challenge Yudhishthir to a game of
dice. He knew he wasn’t good and Shakuni was. Yudhishtir was suspicious but
agreed to the challenge. Yudhishtir lost all his wealth and possessions and
left with nothing.
After losing everything he wagered his brother Nakul, a
powerful warrior. Yudhishthir lost and Nakul was lost to the Kauravas. He kept
betting his brothers and losing. He was too obsessed to stop playing. He then put himself at stake and lost himself
to Shakuni.
