Accordingly they prepare the torches so that they could frighten away wild animals. At this time a Gandharva chief called Chitratha is passing by in his aerial car with his two wives. One of the wives wants to bathe in the River Bhageerathi flowing on the earth and they come down. While they are enjoying the cool water, the Pandava brother appear there carrying their torches. The Gandharva gets furious with the Pandavas. He says the time between the falling of twilight and the dawn is reserved for Yakshas, Gandharvas and Rakshasas and they kill any man who come near pools. His name was Angaraparna(Blazing chariot).

Scene 1 The people of Ekachakrapura find dead a man with multiple injuries on the main street. This was the man who had identified the people living in the house of the Brahmin Upaya as the Pandavas who were supposed to have perished in the fire at Varanavata. Pandavas are going through forests, and Kunti wants to rest. Sahadeva is wise: he notices flocks of birds flying towards north and he concludes that in the southern direction, there must be water bodies likely to attract wild animals. So he concludes the pace was too dangerous to rest. They then move on.

Scene 1 Dhrishtadyumna if worshipping Shiva Ling with flowers when Kripi and Ashwaththama enter. They ask him who he is. Drishtadyumna falls at Kripi's feet and seeks her blessings. When Kripi repeats the question, Dhrishtadyumna reveals his name. Ashwaththama flares up on hearing the name, because he and Kripi recognize him as the son Drupada obtained from the fire for wreaking vengeance on Drona. Ashwaththama pushes him out despite Dhrishtadyumna's protests that he cannot leave the place without Drona's permission. Drona finds Drishtadyumna standing outside and asks him the reason. Drishtadyumna tells him Kripi and Ashwaththama had chased him out. Drona asks him to sit down for dinner and asks his wife to serve him food.

So it was his duty to teach martial weapons when an able and competent kshatriya requests ...

Scene 1 Bhishma leaves after dismissing Duryodhana's plan of coronation. Duryodhana gets enraged and getting out of control, breaks everything in sight just like Dhritarashtra did under similar circumstances. A few hours later, Duryodhana, Dushshasana and Karna are chatting. Duryodhana regrets his father himself has become his enemy. Shakuni tells them that he ought to be more patient. Duryodhana is mistaken in assuming that simply ascending the throne is enough to make one happy, but Dhritarashtra, being more experienced, believes in waiting for more time and assure everybody's approval for lasting happiness. Therein lay the difference between Duryodhana and Dhritarashtra. Shakuni seizes the opportunity to tell Duryodhana that he has forgotten his uncle, whose help he utilized in driving the Pandavas out of his path. Duryodhana says that wasn't his intention, and apologizes for any lapse on his part. Karna : From now on, your nephew will not even breathe without t...
