Vrish Krishna got the Saranga bow from Narakasura..who had captured sixteen thousand girls and he had taken Aditi's ear rings too...So Krishna fought with him and killed him and released those girls and returned the ear rings to Aditi..here it is from Mahabharat:The one he gave Rama was Lord Vishnu's bow, which Rama strung, and then used to deprive Parashurama of his arrogance & anger. But Rama gave that bow to Varuna - it was not the kodanda, which he used against Ravan.
So Krishna used that bow only? Did he get it from Varuna, or did he get it from a celestial chariot that had all the weapons of himself and Balarama?

I'll bring my question here...The version of Mahabharat shown here was quite different from the BRC version of Mahabharat. The part where I recall is in the BRC version, after Karan's death Kunti goes & cries in the battle field & Yudhisthir on learning the truth curses all the women that they'll never be able to hide anything(I hope I'm right). In the Sagar version, nothing like that was shown, in fact Krishna had to persuade Kunti to reveal the truth & then once Kunti told them Karan was their brother Krishna took over the discussion & defended Kunti & Karan. What actually happened? Any info guyz?
In reality, it was just a private moment b/w Kunti and the Pandavas, although Krishna was around. Kunti was worried that Karna wouldn't get an honorable funeral, and so requested Yudhisthir to do it, and disclosed the circumstances of Karna's birth. All the Pandavas were shocked, and the Yudhisthir then accused Kunti of causing him to commit a major sin in killing his older brother, and cursed all womankind that they'd never be able to keep a secret. The Pandavas then did Karna's last rites.
