She is his 4th wife. Technically 3rd since he never married Uloopi.

In the absence of citations we can only speculate. The Pandavas were in exile and with future uncertain no king would have wanted to marry off their daughters to the Pandava sons at that time.

Virata was beholden to the Pandavas and especially to Arjun. Prativindya was older to Abhimanyu, but the offer by Virata was specifically for Arjun and he chose his elder son ( his son by Draupadi was younger to Abhimanyu and Iravan/ Babruvahana were not considered for different reasons). The preparations and parleys for the war started almost immediately and I don't think there was time to think about marriage for the Upapandavas.


thank you so much! ... pretty much sums everything!
if am not sure if this been answered before ... but what was the approx. time duration ... the pandavas return from exile and the start of the war?


and also ...i know the time was frozen during the geeta gyan to Arjun ... but is there any citation of how long the actual geeta citation take? ... or with time frozen there is no account for the time during this? ... for others on the war field it looked like just a second had passed ... maybe sanjaya's narration to dhritarashtra has some clues?


thanks for taking out time and answering!

he never married uloopi but has a love child with her...
the story regarding urvashi is stated true...urvashi was sexually attracted to arjun but he dismisses her advances as she was his fatherz(indra) lover...so she becomz mad n curses him to b impotent...but later makes amends n says he can choose the time duration for being that...so he chooses to be brihandala during the agyatvaas...
