n what about Shikandini? she was an incarnation of Amba...there too u will have no challengers 😆
Shikhandini married a princess and then became Shikhandi. So it's the bulk of you who are eligible to select her, not I. I can only select Amba, which I did 😆

@Vrish i guess not many people would know who bavru and vraj are or have an image of them in their minds so that they can put their varmala around their neck. 😆
And i knew you had a kind heart that you hide behind that devious mind of yours. 😈
this way amba will be saved from getting her gender messed up and you will also save bheeshm.
or perhaps, she will ask you to kill bheeshm.
are we treating amba and shikhandini/shikhandi as diff. people?
No, but in the previous survey - done b4 the poll, 1 person voted for Babru & 1 for Vajra, so they should have been there. Nobody then voted for YNS. So these 2 & other could have been there.
Amba & Shikhandini were different. Amba would have married Shalva or Bheeshma, whereas Shikhandini married a princess and then became a man. So while I can pick Amba, only you or the other ladies here can pick Shikhandini as a hubby. In fact, that was my last question in that thread, which everybody conveniently ignored 😈
I doubt that Amba would still want Bheeshma dead if she got a hubby - that was the whole basis of her grievance against him. But if she wanted him dead, I'd simply have gone to Bheeshma and requested him - since he had ichcha mrityu, it would have been worthless fighting him. So I'd have asked him to voluntarily give up his life to me, so that I could then give it to Amba. Bheeshma would have agreed, maybe w/ some caveats.
