Yeah, right 😆

Next one - Pandu helped the ruler of Madra defend himself from an attack, and got Madri as a reward

How come women are rewards? Does that mean Men are punishment?😈

No. I think Madri's marriage to Pandu was a gesture of friendship that had nothing to do with any war assistance.

Arjuna dressed as Brihanmala helped Madhav steal bride Rukhmani from her paternal palace.

Of course there was a Bakasura. My comment - yeah right - implied that there was.


Anjana - answer to your point - Shalya gave Madri to Bheeshma, who approached him, and took a huge bride price in return. Bheeshma took Madri back to Hastinapur and asked Pandu to marry her

Back to women as PRIZE, Property, Reward😆 I am sticking to men as PUNISHMENT!😛 Bhisma is always "procuring" wives for his bros, nephews... ufff no wonder StarBhisma is upset with Pandavas -- they aren't letting him "select" brides😉

Ok... back to Distortion. Did Brihamala help Madhav haran Rukhmani?

😆 i share this opinion.. poor Pandavas wanted him to retire atleast from this Duty.. I wonder who brought brides for Kauravas..
Rukmini came to the Temple as she comes always.. he was not house arrested to need someone to bring her out.. I dont think anyone knew her love for Krishna before she eloped..
i actually dont know this story it not being a part of MB.. saying from the tamil mahabharatam serial.. hope they are good enough to save me 😆

Ok, no. There was no Arjun in Krishna's abduction of Rukmini (I believe this is a repeat question for this thread)

Pandu left Kunti on his suhaag raat to go to defend Madra, and came back w/ Madri, so that poor Kunti couldn't enjoy any suhaag raat 😭

There was sometime left between Kunti's arrival at Hastinapur and Madri's wedding with Pandu.. so all Kunti's nuptial rituals would have been done by that time.. Next.. Vichitravirya died on the day of his Rajyabhishek
