Who is Jaydrath?Jayadrath, husband of Karuav and Pandava's sister, during the battle of mahabharat made use of the first boon granted to him by Lord Shiva. He was able to hold all the Pandava brothers at bay except Arjuna and Krishna who were busy battling elsewhere . Jayadratha allowed Arjuna's son Abhimanyy to enter the battle, but effectively closed the opening created by Abhimanyu. Abhimanyu who did not know how to exit from the Chakravyooha got trapped and gets killed in a brutal way by the Kauravas treacherously. After the end of the battle, Jayadratha kicked the dead body of Abhimanyu and rejoiced around it.
The Pandavas were startled and enraged after finding that Jayadratha (whose life was once spared during the Draupadi's abduction episode in the past) was able to hold the world's most powerful warriors at bay. Arjun blamed Jayadratha to be the cause for Abhimanyu's death. He vowed to kill him the very next day before sunset, failing which Arjuna would kill himself by jumping in a pyre of fire.
Next day at a climactic moment, the sun had nearly set and thousands of warriors were still between Arjuna and Jayadratha. Krishna soon realised that Arjuna was unable to reach Jayadratha before sunset. So, he sent his Sudarshana Chakra to in order to mask the sun and thereby causing a solar eclipse in order to create an illusion of sunset. The Kaurava warriors rejoiced over Arjuna's defeat and were looking forward for his imminent suicide. Jayadratha came before Arjuna and laughed at Arjuna's defeat. In the meantime, the Sun appeared suddenly. Then, Krishna suggested Arjuna that the sun has not yet set. He pointed his hand towards Jayadratha and asked Arjuna to kill him without wasting further time. Arjuna shot a powerful arrow that decapitated Jayadratha. In order to avoid Jayadrath's head from falling on the ground, Krishna advised Arjuna to shoot the arrow in such a way that the head gets carried and fall on the lap of Vridhakshtra. Vridhakshtra was meditating in a place very close to the battlefield. The head of Jayadratha gets carried and fell into his father's lap. His father got up in shock as he did not know what fell on his lap. The head of his son falls on the ground and his head bursts into 100 pieces and gets killed. Thus, Vridhakshtra becomes the victim of his own boon granted to his son. Thus, Lord Krishna saved Arjuna and saw to it that both Jayadratha and Vridhakshtra are killed in the same stroke.
Relation to CB:
Yesterday Barkha asks Rohan where he is going and that also informs him that she is aware that he is searching for Radhika' parents. When he denies any such thing, she asks Virat to confirm what he saw. Rohan cooly replies that all are gone mad and leave from there.
This is an illusion, I think, created by Kanha to fool Barkha and she is falling in the trap big time. Kanha is making Barkha think that Rohan is behind all this. All the scenes between the parents and Rohan and even the photograph is maya of Kanha to trap Barkha in such a way she will spill the beans herself...Just like Sunset was the illusion created to get Jaydrath out ...this illusion is to get Barkha out with the reality...
