After a few years,
Day by day, the bond between Dwarika and Panchal grew thicker and thicker.
Balram had got married to Rajkumari Revathi and Tejveer had got married to Rajkumari Tara.
Drishtadyumn and Kritika had developed strong feelings for eachother, which is love but, had not confessed it to eachother.
(Guys, don't get confused about who's Kritika, I've changed Subhadra's name as Kritika. Thanks to AmritaSil dii for this beautiful name and idea)
Adwika and Draupadi had returned back to Dwarika and Panchal respectively and had promised to meet soon.
On the other side, the Pandavas had also finished their studies but were under a disguise due to some reasons.
The Kauravas and ashwathama had also finished their studies and were preparing for the Kala pradarshan which is going to be held in Hastinapur in a week for all of guru Drona's students.
*After a week*
A week passed, today was the Kala pradarshan day. All the disciples of guru Drona were present there and all the people of Hastinapur were also present to watch the duel. The Pandavas had also arrived but, they were still in a disguise.
The duels went on and finally, at the end, Guru Dronacharya said something which raised the anger of all pandavas especially Karna and Arjun.
Drona: oh Hastinapur ki janata, ye hai mera sishya aur putra Ashwathama. Ye mera shishyon me se hi nahi, pura Vishwa ka athi sresht dhanurdar hai.
On hearing this, Arjun and Karn got up from their seats immediately.
Karn: hum Ashwathama se dwandh karenge.
Drona: Aisa kyu? Tum tho mera sishya nahi.
Arjun: hum zaroor apke sishya nahi hai ,phir bhi hum Ashwathama se dwandh karenge kyunki aap Ashwathama ko vishwa ka athi sresht dhanurdar bolke saara vishwa ko aamantran di hai. Hum usse galat saabit karna chahte hai.
Karna: isiliye me aur mera bhai Ashwathama se ek ek karke dwandh karenge aur agar wo hum me se kisi ek ko bhi hara de tho hum humare parajay Ko swikar karenge.
Now, Bhagwan Parashuram too arrive at the dueling stadium. Seeing this, all were shocked by his sudden entry. Bhishma and Drona do greetings for him and leads him to the VIP row where the royals were seated. The pandavas also do silent greetings to him. After that, Drona again turns back to Arjun and Karn.
Drona: oh yuvano, tum dono dwandh kar sakte ho par isse pehle, apne aur apne Gurudev ka pehchan batao.
Karn: Abhi ke liye hum humara asli pehchan nahi bata sakte par aap mujhe Aadhavan bula sakte hai.
Arjun: aur mujhe Savyasachi bula sakte hai.
Drona: par aisa-
Parashuram: unn dono ko dwandh karne do Drona.
Drona: ji Gurudev! Par yuvano, tum dono ka Dhanush kaha hai.
Arjun: Abhi hame uska zaroorat nahi hai, jab zaroorat padega tab aajayega.
Drona goes back and sits next to Parashuram.
Drona: ati aatmavishwas accha nahi hai. (Scoffs)
Parashuram: (scolds) ye ati aatmavishwas nahi, ye unke aatmavishwas hai aur mujhe unpar pura vishwas hai.
Hearing this from Bhagwan Parashuram, both Bhishma and Drona were shocked but, they both maintained their posture.
Parashuram: oh yuvano, mere pass tum dono ke liye ek chunoti hai, karoge usse?
Karn, Arjun: haa, zaroor!
Parashuram: tum dono Ashwathama se dwandh karne waqt sirf aur sirf saadaran gyan upayog karoge.
All were shocked and also curious listening to this except Pandavas and Bhagwan Parashuram himself.
Arjun, Karn: (smiling) ji, ye hame Manzoor hai.
By now, Pandu, Kunti and Madri had known who they are but decided to keep quiet.
The first duel was between Karn and Ashwathama. Within five minutes, Karn had defeated Ashwathama.
The second duel was between Arjun and Ashwathama. Within five minutes, Ashwathama was defeated.
Seeing this, all Kauravas, Drona and Ashwathama were shocked. Ashwathama was fuming in extreme anger. Pandu, Kunti and Madri were happy and proud.
Arjun: humare paas ek aur aamantran hai.
Drona: kya??
Karn: mein Guru Dronacharya se dwandh karna chhata hu.
Arjun: aur main pitamaha Bhishma se dwandh karna chhata hu.
Drona: kya tum sachme mujhse dwandh karna chahate ho??
Karn: (confidently) haa!
Bhishma: mujhe Manzoor hai.
The first duel takes place between Karn and Drona. It takes a long time but both were also not defeated so, Bhagwan Parashuram declared it as a tie.
The second duel took place between Arjun and Bhishma. A lot of arrows were showered on eachother and this duel also took place for a long time but, there was no defeat till now from both the sides so, Bhagwan Parashuram declared it as a tie once again.
All were shocked by seeing this. Bhagwan Parashuram was very happy and was smiling to his fullest. Pandu, Kunti and Madri were overjoyed and proud of them.
Drona: (to Karn) putr, mein tumhara dhanur vidhya se bhout prasan hu!
(Karn smiles)
Karn: dhanyavad!
Bhishma: (to Arjun) putr, mein bhi tumhara dhanur vidhya se bhout prasan hu.
(Arjun smiles)
Arjun: dhanyavad!
Parashuram: (teasingly) oh yuvano, ab tho tum apne pehchan bata sakte ho na?
Kon ho tum dono?
Karn, Arjun: kyu aap har baar hame hi phasa the ho? Kyu har baar hum dono hi phas jate hai??
Parashuram: (smiles) aise hi!
All were shocked to see someone speaking to Bhagwan Parashuram in such a friendly matter and even more shocked to see Bhagwan Parashuram reacting in the same way.
Karn: theek hai, hum batate hai.
Karn: mein Maharaj Pandu aur maharani Kunti ka pehla putr. Mera Gurudev Bhagwan Parashuram hai. Mera naam karna hai aur mera Gurudev mujhe Adaavan bulate hai.
(Adaavan: the first rays of sun)
Arjun: mein Maharaj Pandu aur Maharani Kunti ka chauda (fourth) putr hu. Mera Gurudev Bhagwan Parashuram hai. mera naam Arjun hai aur mera Gurudev mujhe Savyasachi bulate hai.
(Savyasachi: the one who is able to shoot arrows from both the hands)
Parashuram: haa, ab tumhare gurudakshina tasks Ko bhi batayiye.
Karna: mera gurudakshina tasks te:
• guru bratha Dronacharya Ko mera dhanur vidhya se prasan karna.
• kamyakasur, beejasur rakshason ka vadh karna.
(These rakshas names are imaginary)
Arjun: mera gurudakshina tasks te:
• pitamaha ko mera dhanur vidhya se prasan karna.
• kiritha, devasur rakshason ka vadh karna.
(The names of these monsters are imaginary)
• ek aur hai jo mein abhi Bata nahi sakta.
Parashuram: mera baki shishya kaha hai?
Yudhi, Bheem, Nakul, Sahadev : hum yaha hai Gurudev.
Saying this, all four of them came and stood beside Arjun and Karn.
Yudhisthir: mein Maharaj Pandu aur Maharani Kunti ka dusra putr hu. Mera Gurudev Bhagwan Parashuram hai. Mera Naam Yudhisthir hai.
Mera gurudakshina ghatasur aur bhatasur rakshason ka vadh Karna.
(They are also imaginary names)

Nakul: mein Maharaj Pandu aur Maharani Madri ka putr hu. Mera Gurudev Bhagwan Parashuram hai. Mera gurudakshina Sahadev ke saath trilok sarovar jaakar waha ke rakshason ka vadh karke waha ke devata Ko mukth karna.
Sahadev: mein Maharaj Pandu aur Maharani Madri ka putr hu. Mera Gurudev Bhagwan Parashuram hai. Mera gurudakshina Nakul ne abhi abhi bataya.
Parashuram: (to everyone present there) haa, ye inke gurudakshina thi aur inn San ne ye saara gurudakshina tasks pura ki hai wo bhi mera madadh ke bina aur mujhe garv hota hai inn 6 ko mera shishya bulane mein. Yahi nahi, Karn aur Arjun ne apne samarthya aur kabiliyat se tata vijaya Dhanush aur ghandiv Dhanush ko haasil ki hai.
(Vijaya bow, used by Mahadev once is acquired by Karna.
Ghandiv bow, a blessing of Agni Dev for burning khandavvan is acquired by Arjun)
On hearing the greatness of Pandavas, all the people were hooting with pride and happiness. Everyone in the royal family were happy listening to this except Shakuni, Kauravas and Dritharastra.
