====Rescuing Varsha from a eagle named Vasudhara====
====Rescuing Varsha from a eagle named Vasudhara====
There are few stories in [[Mahabharata]] witten by [[Ved Vyasa]] do say in a jungle, Varsha loved flowers. She went to pick many flowers such as [[Rose]], [[Hibiscus]], with her boyfriend, [[Karna]]. Some Historians may say she used to pick flowers in the [[Kamyaka Forest]]. An eagle named Vasudhara, used to rule the forest after the death of [[Ghatotkacha]]. Varsha was roaming and roaming and didn't know where was [[Karna]]. Vasudhara, angrily kidnapped Varsha and made her sit in the nest. In that stage, Vasudhara had no babies. [[Karna]] saw the eagle and killed her and destroyed the nest and saved his girlfriend with his good aim. The  eagle died without any mercy. Therefore, this story of [[Mahabharata]] may be a complex story. This story may not be real as this story is fictional and is said by [[Devdutt Pattnaik]]. This story is shown in a systematic way where [[Duryodhana]] makes their marriage in a periodic way.
