Rajarshi Vrishaketu: From A Beer Yodhha To A Sage King (Karna Series 7)

This is the last story of my Karna series where I want to write the story of his most unknown Son, Vrishaketu.

He is the son of a greatest Archer and warrior of India, Karna. He is rumoured to be the son of his second neglected wife Supriya, worshiper of Karna. By birth he was Surpriyo, but unfortunately the Boy knew himself was Padmanav or Son of his first wife Padmavati.

He himself was a great archer with apt Knowelage of Divine weapons or Divya Ashtra and powerful fighter. He was the last person upon this earth with such knowledge of Divine weapons yet he was not permitted by Lord Krishna to use them in the battlefield.

Even being a great warrior of his time, he was defeated by the Iron Man of India, arjuna-Chitrangada Son Babrubahan. Why? Was he a coward man as told by maharishi Ved Vyas or something else? Why he chose the way of peace and became the messenger peace in the Aryavart after his mother Padma and his sister-in-law Vatsyala? Why his relation with his son Soumyajit was complex and complicated? Why he preferred the son of Padmaja and Pradumna, Tamoghna, his nephew, over his son and why so?

This is the story of heartbreak, lust, love, pain and lifelong agony, endless trial to prove himself worthy, fight against the social hierarchy and stigma, discovering of true identity and love. It may contain some mature contents.

The story is completely mine based in the story of Uttar Mahabahat time and a purely fan fiction. No resemblance with any living or dead. The characters are taken from Ved Vyas Mahabharata. The images courtesy from Google Chrome, YouTube and Pinterest.
