In this post, we will answer the question: What did Draupadi say after vastraharan?ĭraupadi receives two boons from Dhritarashtra after her vastraharan, by way of apology. She takes birth as a grown young woman in a sacrifice performed by Drupada, in which the king asks for a ‘weapon’ with which the Kurus can be defeated. She is also known as Panchali – or the ‘daughter of Panchala’.ĭraupadi is often considered the primary reason for the destruction of the Kuru dynasty. Her given name at birth is Krishnaa, but since she is the daughter of Drupada she is called Draupadi. As Drupada was the ruler of the kingdom of Panchala, Draupadi was also known as Paanchali.Draupadi is the most prominent female character in the Mahabharata. It is believed that Goddess Kali had given a part of her powers to her, for the destruction of the Kauravas.
When Draupadi grew to be a young woman she was considered very beautiful, mainly for her glowing dark skin, large dark eyes and graceful figure.
Upon Draupadi's emergence a divine voice said she would be the reason for the destruction of the Kauravas. Draupadi thus emerged with Drishtadyumna from the sacrificial fire. Having been struck by Arjuna's valour, Drupada also prayed at the sacrifice for an exceptionally beautiful daughter to give to his, as a token of his appreciation.
To gain revenge on Drona, he performed a great sacrifice to beget a powerful son who could kill him. When Yudhisthira becomes the king of Hastinapura, Indraprastha and the Emperor of India at the end of the war, Draupadi again becomes Queen.ĭrupada had been defeated by Arjuna on behalf of Drona, who subsequently took half his kingdom to humiliate him. In the epic Mahabharata, Draupadi is the daughter of King Drupada, originally known as Princess Krishnaa (due to her dark complexion) and becomes the wife of the five Pandavas.
