On the 17th day of Kurukshetra war, Bheema was finally seen fulfilling his vow of killing Dushasana after reducing the count of Kauravas to 99.

Karna tries stopping Bheema to kill more Kauravas but is prevented by Nakul who asks him to fight him first before moving on. Karna defeats Nakul but resists from killing him as per his promise to Kunti.

On the other hand, Arjun comes before Duryodhan to stop the latter from saving Dushasan. Duryodhan taunts Arjun by saying if he is ready to fight with the gada weapon today. Arjun replies that he is there to teach archery to Duryodhan and then fires an arrow which freezes him completely.

On other hand, Dushasan runs towards Shakuni to seek his help but the evil uncle tells him to save his life by running away as no one is capable of saving him on the 17th day. Yudhistir and other Pandavas capture Dushasan while he is trying to flee from the field.

Karna tries to stop Bheema from marching towards Dushasan by tying him down with a strong hope. But Bheema breaks free from it and gets hold of Dushasan. He beats Dushasan mercilessly and is about to rip open his chest to get his blood oozing.

In the next episode, we will see how Draupadi arrives on the battlefield to get her hair washed with Dushsan’s blood and what the warriors of the Kaurava camp as well as others do after looking at the gory sight. Stay tuned for the next update.
