About this listen
The Pandavas were in their 13th year of exile, and Duryodhana was so bitter that he refused to accept that the Pandavas had completed their exile in the time allotted. In the Virata Kingdom, Arjuna appeared in front of the Kaurava army and defeated all of the great warriors, including Bhisma, Drauna, Ashwathama, and Kripacharya.
It was time for the Pandavas to reclaim what had been taken from them in a dice game. They even sent a message to Duryodhana, asking him to share lands in order to avoid war, but he flatly refused. Duryodhana was looking for a war. Even Lord Krishna warned Duryodhana about the possible consequences and devastation of the war, but he was still unconcerned.
Lord Krishna was Arjuna's charioteer, whereas Duryodhana felt powerful by choosing Krishna's massive army. Both the Pandavas and the Kauravas had anticipated the inevitable. Thousands of humans and animals died as a result of the war, which lasted 18 days. Only a few people survived the Kurukshetra war, which left death and destruction in every family.
