Episode#33

Later when Pandavas lived in the forest, Jayadhrata married to Dusshala to the only sister of Kauravas visited Draupadi when she was alone; she offered him fruits and milk and asked him to wait till her husbands returned.

She had no inkling of his purpose of his visit but felt uncomfortable when he said, "I came here to see you" Draupadi was shocked by the audacity of the man when he offered her to join him to Sindhu, since he could provide her much better life than the forest life, with righteous rage, she replied "I am the queen of Indraprashta, the wife of Pandavas, how dare you speak to me like this?"

Jayadhrata sneered at her "When you have no kingdom, so you cannot be queen, you are just beggar, a whore of five husbands, you are publicly disrobed by the Kauravas" humiliating her, he grabbed her and drove her in his chariot, Draupadi screamed "My husbands will kill you" but her wailings fells on deaf ears."

A passerby who had witnessed this incident, informed Bhima and Arjuna who followed him and wereabout to kill Jayadhrata when Yudhishtira stopped them stating that he was the husband of the only daughter of Kuru Dynasty.
