==Sources==
Chandramukhi was never directly described in the [[Mahabharata]] but fortunately added in the other versions. In the [[Shanti Parva]] book, Dushasana abducted the first princess of Trigarta, the daughter of Ashwinraja, the daughter (Chandramukhi) as she rejected him during the [[Swayamvara]], with the help of his elder brother. Drumasena was born to [[Dushasana]] from the womb of Chandramukhi. Gandhari, describes her truth to [[Krishna]] in a mannerly way -
{{Blockquote|Behold, the wife of Dushasana, the mother of Drumasena who was a princess of Trigarta. The woman with big hips crying for her husband and the other at her son. O Madhava, striking her head with her hands, she fell on the breast of her spouse, Dushasana the second king of Hastinapura|Gandhari|Translated By Kisari Mohan Ganguli}}
Gandhari then continues -
{{Blockquote|O, look at that girl, sorrow from her eyes, the woman who was the queen of Dushasan, o my look at her, weeping at her son Drumasena, the cousins Mayuri, Bhanumati then and only come there, my hearty daughter in law, the queen of Hastinapura, who didn't say a word from her mouth, even a single word after her husband and son's death. Chandramukhi, the fair queen whom Dushasan loved her}}
Chandramukhi is described to be a fair lady from the quotes of [[Gandhari (character)|Gandhari]]. She (Chandramukhi) later laments her husband and son's death. Mayuri and Bhanumati, her two cousins could understand the feelings of her cousin as [[Dushasana]] left the Hastinapura means his death. His five wives including Nirjara cry for [[Dushasana]] but a single Kaurava queen was silent.
