Revenge of Drona

                             Revenge of Drona

Drona and prince Drupad were great friends. They were studying together . At that time, Drupad said to Drona that after he becomes king, he will appoint Drona as his minister. Both of them finished their studies. Drupad has become King now. But Drona was having tough time in life.
Then Drona remembered the promise given by Drupad. Drona thought of meeting Drupad. He went near Drupad. But Drupad didnt recognise Drona. He didnt remember the promise given by him in childhood to Drona. Drupad insulted Drona and sent him out of the country.
Drona felt shame. But he took it as challenge. He vowed that he will make Drupad to fall at his feet. Drona went to Hastinapur and took the job as a teacher to Pandavas and Kouravas. Drona was teaching archery to princes. Amongst them Arjun was his favourite as he was very good at aiming .
He completed teaching archery. As gurudakshina, he wanted Arjuna to defeat Drupad and capture him. Arjuna defeated Drupad in a war and captured him and produced him infront of Drona. After seeing Drupad, Drona said his revenge is complete.
Drona insulted Drupad in the same way Drupad did for him. Now it is the turn of Drupad to take the revenge. He performed ritual so that the god of flame, Agni will get satisfied. Agni was impressed  by Drupad's rituals. He asked Drupad for his wish.
Then Drupad asked for a son who will suceed in killing Drona. Likewise, Drushtadrumn borned. Even Droupadi was born along with the boy. Drona came to know of it. But he didnt continue the chain. In Mahabharat war, Drushtadrumn joined in side of Pandavas as they are his sister's husbands.  He killed Drona in the war.
Mahabharat is also happened because of Droupadi as she got insulted by Kouravas. All happened in order to take the revenge for insult.
