Why does the Pandava senapati remain absent most of the time?
Granted the parvas have been named after the Kaurava senapatis (Bhishma Parva, Drona Parva, Karna Parva, Shalya Parva), but it doesn't mean that the Pandava senapati should be MIA completely...
As I myself have once said on this very thread - In ⭐️, Dhrishtadyumna's only job seems to be to get worked up about the decreasing army strength...
Seems like everybody (including Arjun) has forgotten about Bhishma on the bed of arrows. Granted Ganga has said she will take care of her son. But hey, how about a courtesy call at least? And, I'm not sure if it was a BRC distortion or whatever but Arjun visiting Bhishma and letting him know about Abhi would've been a nice scene (if CVs didn't make it OTT).
Then again, there was so much unnecessary crying in the lead-up to Abhi vadh that the CVs had no choice but to turn MB into a Rohit Shetty movie in yesterday's epi...
You might get irritated by Yudi's "adharma" rant, but I will thank him for ensuring that Jayadratha died on Day 14, not 13th night - for crying out loud!!
Honestly, did any attack even take place on the 13th night in the epic? Epic Arjun was probably too engulfed in grief to even think of attacking the enemy camp...
EDIT - Just a small correction about my statement of Arjun "engulfed in grief" -

Thanks Sabhayata...😊
Back to the topic. As mentioned, Arjun going Bollywood on the 13th night never happened in the epic. But this night-time attack will certainly give ideas to Ashwi for implementing the pre-planned killing of the UpaPs.
Post this nighttime attack carried out by the ⭐️Pandavas, things to look out for -
1. ⭐️Arjun's reaction after Drona vadh
2. ⭐️Pandava reaction after Ka's revelation
