Jayadratha

by Amar Chitra Katha

Jayadratha was a despicable man - vindictive, arrogant and selfish. In the Mahabharata battle, Jayadratha had shamelessly hidden himself away, for Arjuna had taken a terrible vow to put an end to his own life if he failed to kill the villain before sunset that day. With the wise Krishna by his side, would the mighty Arjuna fail to find his mark?

Jayadratha, retold from the Mahabharata by Amar Chitra Katha, tells us the tale of Dushala's husband, Jayadratha. The latter played a crucial role in the killing of Arjuna's son, Abhimanyu. That's why Arjuna took a vow during the Kurukshetra war that if before sunset he couldn't kill Jayadratha, then he would end his own life. But with the blessings and help of Lord Shri Krishna, not only did Arjuna kill Jayadratha, but he also fulfilled his vow.
