Thanks for sharing this interesting info regarding Balram with us Gayatri.đ¤
I found this story very interesting --
Balarama also killed Rukmi( brother of Rukmini and hence, Krishnaâs brother-in-law) with his mace because Rukmi had purposefully insulted and cheated him in a chess match, at the occasion of Aniruddhaâs(Krishnaâs grandsonâs )marriage.
But here is another interesting point to noteđSee this!
Rukmiâs daughter Rukmavati, married Krishnaâs son Pradyumna. Rukmavati and Pradyumna had a son called Aniruddha!!
Rukmi later became friends with Krishna. However, Rukmi was not accepted by Arjuna or Duryodhana as an ally in the Kurukshetra war because of his boastfulness. Thus Rukmi's Vidarbha army stayed away from the Kurukshetra War.
