bheem was good with his strenght and gada but he was not an expert with bow and arrow and it is a known fact that bhesm drona and karn were expert so tell me how a person who is not that good with bow and arrow can kill the experts and draupadi cried in frontof his husbands and told them about keech than thev plan was made and bheem killed kichak as arjun played vina in background i have read the mahabharat and i think u should dothe same to get ur facts clear

agree ..and if he didn't love them equally then it would have been counted as his sin during their journey to heaven...the only fault arjun had is he has pride...he used to think he ia the best in archery ...which karna never had

This was all BRC .In the epic Draupadi directly goes to Bhima only and tells him about all her sorrows and asks him to slay keechaka which he did.No other pandava was involved in any way

Vaisampayana said, 'Thus insulted by the Suta's son, that illustrious princess, the beautiful Krishna, eagerly wishing for the destruction of Virata's general, went to her quarters. And Drupada's daughter of dark hue and slender waist then performed her ablutions. And washing her body and cloths with water Krishna began to ponder weepingly on the means of dispelling her grief. And she reflected, saying, 'What am I to do? Whither shall I go? How can my purpose be effected?' And while she was thinking thus, she remembered Bhima and said to herself, 'There is none else, save Bhima, that can today accomplish the purpose on which my heart is set!' And afflicted with great grief, the large-eyed and intelligent Krishna possessed of powerful protectors then rose up at night, and leaving her bed speedily proceeded towards the quarters of Bhimasena, desirous of beholding her lord. And possessed of great intelligence, the daughter of Drupada entered her husband's quarters, saying, 'How canst thou sleep while that wretched commander of Virata's forces, who is my foe, yet liveth, having perpetrated today that (foul act)?'

The Mahabharat is not your average Bollywood film, where so many emotions and genres are mixed up so that the film is palatable to a wider audience. Each looks for and finds in it the genre that appeals to them the most.


The Mahabharat, in contrast to this, is not about romantic love. It deals with other aspects of human life such as duty, dharma, moksha, and other human failings and vices. Romance in the Mahabaharata is confined to maybe Shantanu pining after Satyavati or Bheem venturing out in precarious territory to find a particular brand of lotus that had taken Draupadi's fancy.

All we can do is just speculate about who loved whom the most, when often in real life as well, it is hard to grade the love that we share with our loved ones.

in kurukshetra bheem once defeated karna and drona with bow and arrow only am now taking offense for demeaning bheema before asking me read it urself and if u have read then give citation already sabhya answered on keechak matter i wont go there
let me tell u another thing arjun never killed bheeshma and drona , bheeshma was defeated only becoz arjun was shooting hiding behind shikhandi and bheeshma had promise to not to fight with shikhandi as he was amba in last birth
bheeshma had boon to bring death on own wish so arjun was never able to kill him
drona was not even defeated by arjuna he himself left his bow after hearing the lie of his son aswathama is killed and btw credit goes to bheema who killed the elephant named aswathama
arjun was not even involved in drona killing dhristadyumna killed him after drona left bow
arjun only killed karna and that too when karna forgot his knowledge and was armless lifting the chariot wheel , tell me which skill of arjuna worked to kill defenseless karna?couldn't bheem kill him in that moment? even yudi , nakul or sahadev could or even any warrior could

arjun is a great archer no doubt but atleast he didn't do any of this thing to prove his love for draupadi

btw karna too had pride on his skill and used to say he can defeat pandavas alone at least in this case he was similar to arjun

Dont assume mahabharata to DDLJ ...its not a love story...its about duty n valor of tht times.
None of the pandavas declared their love nor did draupadi went arnd declaring her love for them...the love was just there.
In original ved vyaas mb its never mentioned anywhere tht draupadi loved arjuna the most...its in the later versions tht assume tht since a woman can only love one man hence draupadi loved arjuna.
Why cant a woman be polygamous too ??
There's an incident where lord Krishna told yudi tht Draupadi is one of the most pativrata and devoted wife of dwapar yuga.

And She fell during tht himalayan trek not coz of her love for arjuna but coz she cld not be a widow n married at the same time.
frankly why r ppl bothered abt pandavs love life ?
MB has so many better lessons to give...why concentrate on silly things.Look at the bigger picture.

So drau loved Arjun a tae more than other 4. Big deal. He won her, she had him in mind during swayamvar. Its entirely possible she loved him a pinch more. Did she love others less? No. She chose them all. Mb is fukl of citations how she could not take her eyes off all 5 handsome, strong men. How she wanted all of them as much as they wanted her.
Bheem was nost devoted to her.
Sahadev and nakul catered to her every whim.
She sat beside yudi all the time.
They all loved her.
Because they were in agyatvaas, only wqy keechak could have been killed without arisibg suspicion was bheems way. She knew Arjun and twins will follow yuei. Yudi will not go for confrontation. So she chose bheem to follow her plans up.

she a goddess.Look at her strength marrying five men is no small deal.She is was committed to them equally.Never it is expressed that draupadi was neglectful of anyone..What a big fuss about her and arjun equation..i hv seen comments as if arjun love was the ulimate triumph of his wifes, who so ever he loved was ultimate winner..Think of a woman who had to share soul nd body with five man, yet she was a devoted wife. SHE Is one of the panchkanyas.
After all she had been through and suffered all i see is as strong woman,one to be revered.
Its so insensitive of ppl to make marks like arjun loved subhdra most coz he shared draupadi...hence draupadi was jealous..Where in fact draupadi took subhi as her sister..And stating that she ws shared from r point of view is insulting and objectification of Draupadu..It was not an easy marriage for 6 OF THEM..Still its commendable hw scared ws their bond and mutual respect for each other.
