True friendship
Duryodhan was crowned prince of Hastinapur. Karna is his friend. Their friendship is well known. Here is the incident to show it.
Bhaanumati is Duryodhan's wife. Since Karna used to come to meet Duryodhan almost regularly, even Bhaanumati was close to Karna. Once Duryodhan was not at home and Bhaanumati was alone. Not knowing that, Karna came to meet Duryodhan.
When he learnt that his friend is not at home, Karna prepared to leave. But Bhaanumati asked him to stay back. She invited him to play Chess. Though Karna hesitated in beginning, finally he agreed to play. Both were playing chess and were engrossed in it.
That time, there was a bet between them. Whoever wins, they must obey the order of the other. Karna won in bet. When he was about to tell his wish, Duryodhan came inside. Bhaanumati stood up. Without knowing that, Karna tried to stop Bhaanumati.
In that process, the necklace Bhaanumati was wearing, tore and all the pearls fell down. By seeing that, Karna stood up and realised Duryodhan was standing. Without knowing what to do, Karna stood with his head bent down in shame.
But Duryodhan smiled and started picking up the pearls. Then he encouraged both his wife and friend to continue game. And also urged his wife to fulfill Karna's demand. This shows the confidence Duryodhan had in his friend and in his friendship.
