She was legally beautiful according to folklores and the friend of [[Bhanumati (Mahabharata)|Bhanumati]] and beautiful maiden to [[Karna]]. It is also said that Varsha met secretly with [[Karna]], but however, her father Rajaysena declines [[Karna]] as his son in law, as he knew when the Senapati told his full information to the King. Varsha was kidnapped by [[Karna]] during the [[Swayamvara]], they secretly marry in the [[Gandharva Vivah]] style, by doing the acts of [[Krishna]] but their story is comparatively different apart from Karna's marriage.

She was the Princess of the Kingdom named, Karpjot, which is not mentioned in [[Mahabharata]] of [[Vyasa]]. | '''Varsha''' was the wife of [[Karna]], who is known as the hero of [[Mahabharata]], she was known as the daughter in law, welcomed by [[Kunti]], [[Karna]]'s mother.

In the ''Mahabharata'', Karna's wife is mentioned six times. As she was fond of him, her father was legal of his duties and would not marry his daughter to [[Karna]] as he didn't like him by seeing his caste, and also supporting [[Kaurava]] [[Duryodhana]]. Varsha didnt like the way her father was behaving with her, and without her father's wish, she stubbornly married Karna. | |||
