After Abhimanyu's last rituals,

Arjun and subhadra went to Uttara's room. They were hardly controlling their tears seeing the condition of young girl. It had been not a year also, she got married with Abhimanyu and she is a widow now. Even her brother and father also left her and her mother also committed sati. Subhadra was looking at Uttara who was lost in her thoughts with teary eyes. Arjun kept his palm over Subhadra's shoulder and assured her.

Arjun and subhadra walked towards Uttara who didn't notice them.

Subhadra: Putri....

Uttara looked at them and greeted them with a fake smile.

Arjun: Putri...You don't need to hide anything from us. I think somehow I am also responsible for this condition.....

Uttara cuts him in middle.

Uttara: It's no one's fault. It was written in my fate only. Please don't repent like this. Now, I have no one without you both and the one whom I am raising inside of my womb.

Arjun and subhadra hugged her tightly and obviously, they were also finding their lost Abhimanyu in her. That night Arjun and subhadra decided to stay with Uttara.

At 16th day,

Bheem killed Dusshasan.

At 17th day,

Today Karn and Arjun was going to fight. Subhadra was passing a restless time in the tent of pandavas. She believes her husband's capability and when her brother is with him, there is nothing to be tensed but still a wife's heart was not ready to stay calm. Either Padmavati will lose her husband or she. Whenever, Subhadra remembers how that Karn killed her young son her blood started to boil. But when she thinks about his family, she feels pity but when she remembers that how he insulted her jiji and manipulated Duryodhan to more sins, she thinks he deserves no mercy. Maybe she was keeping herself calm hearing her brother's words and for Uttara but her husband Arjuna was still burning in the fire of vengeance and he was not going to punish Karn for Abhimanyu's death only but for those ill words too which he told to Draupadi during dyut sabha and for supporting Duryodhan in his sins. Subhadra came out of her thoughts hearing her maid's voice.

Maid: Hail to the princess! Senapati Arjun killed angraj karn.

Subhadra was feeling bad for padmavati and her little son but it had to happen. She looked outside and it seems the sun was going to set today soon. She could hear people were whispering that Arjun killed angraj karn in a unfair way. Even some dasis and soldiers were also saying the same and some were calling Arjun coward. Subhadra frowned and went outside and looked at the soldiers who were giving news of every moments to her and asked them how Karn was killed.

Before they could answer, Subhadra saw a restless Kunti running towards kurukshetra. Subhadra was a little bit perplexed and decided to follow her. Subhadra started following Kunti who was running towards kurukshetra. Suddenly she fall and managed to cut her hand but she didn't care and started running. Very next moment, Subhadra and all pandavas were shocked. Kunti cried taking Karn's head over her lap,"Oh my son...."
