What if the Mahabharat was reshaped by wishes from another age?
Long ago, when Lord Ram prepared to leave for his abode, he demanded last wishes from his brothers.
Lakshman knew his motive was to protect his brother from all that he had to go thro...
She heard a voice from behind and gulped in nervousness. Turning around, her eyes widened in shock. Bheem stood there glaring at her angrily.
Sumitra :- Please listen....
Bheem :- Stop it! Not a single word, I heard whatever you both talked about.
Sumitra :- That isn't....
Bheem :- I said shut UP! you will only answer my questions and I expect a direct answer, no pleadings or explanations, I've caught you red handed and you very well know that.
She hung down her head and took a deep breath to prepare herself for questions.
Bheem :- So who are you and who is your brother ?
Sumitra :- I.... I am Hidimba, sister of Hidimb, present king of rakshas.
Bheem :- Why did he tell you to bring us here ?
Hidimba :- We are rakshas, humans those who enter the forest and get lost become our food. When he saw you all wandering in his territory, he sent me to bring you all to our place and....
Bheem :- And ? And what ?
Hidimba :- (hesistating) Have a grand feast.
Bheem clenched his mace tightly as his eyes began turning red.
Bheem :- You mean trap and kill us all, what does he think of himself, no one can harm my family untill I am alive.
Hidimba :- That's why, you all should leave the forest with first rays of sun...
Bheem :- Just be quiet, I said no more explanation.

Hidimba :- Please believe me, bhrata Hidimb is very strong, he'll certainly kill you all.
Bheem :- (chuckles) Oh!
Hidimba :- It is our tradition, whosoever kills the king, becomes new king. Due to this, many tried to kill him but all failed. Please, I'm telling the truth, I will show you all the way to get out safely.
Bheem sighs and thinks for a moment.
Bheem :- Your brother, he told you to bring us to him, will he not get offended, what was the trouble this creature was talking about.
Hidimba :- You need not worry about me, I will accept the punishment willingly.
Bheem :- No need of that, since we've entered this forest already, I'll make it safe for all beings.
Hidimba :- (confused) What ?
Bheem :- Yes, tommorow you will take me to his place and I'll see how powerful he is.
Hidimba :- This is not a good idea...
Bheem :- I've believed you enough, now you will do what I will ask you to do so, tomorrow first thing you will do is to tell your truth to mata and seek forgiveness. Is that clear ?
