Secrets From The Epic Mahabharat
Everyone has heard or read about the epic, Mahabharat. While most of the things from the scripture is known and mentioned, there are a lot of secrets that were not revealed. For example, everyone knows that the five Pandava brothers in the epic Mahabharata shared one wife named Draupadi. However, did you know that each Pandava had other wives too?
The tale of Draupadi's many husbands is well heard and known. However, there is no mention or talks about the separate wives each Pandava had. Similarly, there are many other secrets from the epic Mahabharat that we would like to share with you. Take a look...
Secrets From Epic Mahabharat:
Bhima Was The First One To Get Married: It was not Arjun or Yudhishtira, but Bhima who first tied the knot. After Kauravas attempted to kill Pandavas by setting the house ablaze, the Pandavas ran away into a forest. Meanwhile, Bhima killed Rakshasas like Baka and Hidimba. Hidimba's sister (who was considered a witch) was flattered by the strength of Bhima and chose him as her husband. It is said that the couple even has a son named Ghatotkacha.
Draupadi's Wish: This is another secret from Mahabharata. Draupadi was upset in her first birth as she was not getting married, and thus started meditating. Lord Shiva got impressed with her meditation and asked her to wish for anything. Draupadi asked for a husband who has all the qualities. As Draupadi said the wish 5 times, Lord Shiva blessed her with the 5 Pandavas. Father King Drupud was upset when he came to know that the sanyasi's were actually the Pandavas and his daughter would be a wife to five husbands. Maharshi Ved Vyas intervened and explained about the wish that was fulfilled by Lord Shiva in her previous birth.

Arjun Was The First Choice: Panchalnareash Drupud wanted Draupadi to be married to Arjun. That is why the arrow and the moving aim task was set up at her swayamvar that only Arjun could complete. When no one could complete the task, Arjun came forward and did it easily. Draupadi put the garland on him. The Kshatriya kings felt insulted and wanted to kill Drupud. Bhima and Arjun saved king Drupud by defeating every king there. The battle ended when Lord Krishna intervened. Another secret is, Draupadi's swayamvar was not just attended by kings and princes but also by Gods and Yamraj.
