What Duryodhana thinks seeing Abhimanyu...

Episode#53

Standing on his chariot, Duryodhana cited the young prince Abhimanyu (son of Subhadra and Arjuna) and remembered fondly the memories of his first adolescent love with Subhadra!

It was due to Vasudev Krishna that instead of marrying him, she married to his enemy Arjuna! Duryodhana remembered Subhadra had come to meet him near the lake last night; she was looking very pretty and beautiful, she requested him not to kill her son Abhimanyu but without replying or offering any kind of commitment, he had left abruptly.

Today, he stood on the battlefield he thought he does not have any animosity against the young kid, why would he kill him? But if at all he gets killed in this war,
will he be able to see Subhadra crying over her son's dead body? Duryodhana was in no mood to fight this war but now he had no choice! Was there not a single soul who could avert this war?

Duryodhana - a trifle reluctantly blew the conch-shell loudly followed by Pitamah thunderous voice "ATTACK" posing as the curtain raiser for the Great Mahabharata War!

Mahabharata war - Day 15 Fall of Acharya Drona.

Episode#69 On the fifteenth day, the war did not cease even after the sunset but continued as mentioned before in Torchlight. The Kurukshetra field presented strange sight with burning torches - the generals and soldiers on both the sides we're engaged in battle, thousands of torches burnt and were used as signals, devised for night time. Ghatotkacha and his troops of demons (who are stronger at night) found darkness an additional advantage and violently attacked Duryodhana army. Duryodhana heart sank when he saw thousands of his men destroyed by Ghatotkacha and his demon army moving in the air and attacking in strange and unexpected ways.

All living beings must die but truth is always bitter! Vriddhakshatra was grieved to hear the voice declare his son's end.

When Jayadratha grew up to his manhood, Vriddhakshatra handed over the state ...
