Vashudevaya Namahah!
Purochan along with his men set the palace on fire. Pandavas along with Kunti tried to escape before the calamity but they were shocked to see the palace already on fire. Bhima suggested Arjun to use Barun (water) arrow to subside the fire but Yudhisthira asked not to because if they did that then everyone will come to know that they were alive. Right on time Arjuna recalled Krishna's preaching about devi saraswati how she recided under ground when there was fire. Everyone agreed to utilize the underground pathway. Pandavas hurried to find the way out while the fire kept on burning the palace in ashes. Kunti and Arjun lagged behind and were caught between the fire when bhima tried to stop the fire with his foot but instead his shoe caught fire. Somehow they managed to pull his foot.
Arjun took kunti in his arms and threw her towards his elder brother bhima. Arjuna ordered his brothers to take Kunti to a safe place but they including Kunti refused to go leaving him behind. Arjuna kept on pleaded them but they did not move. With heavy heart the four pandavas left glancing Arjuna for the last time because Kunti was their priority.
Pandava overcame all the obstacles and reached outside. Arjuna on the other hand managed to sprint over the fire and joined his brothers.
With one kich Bhima dug whole in the ground making their escape route. Kunti ordered her sons to leave when they couldnot find any trace of Arjuna. Hopelessly they waited for him but he was no where. Everyone agreed to wait for Arjuna not accepting their mother's words.
Arjuna tried his level best to get to the escape but his situation was getting worse due to the rapid spread of the fire but finally he took a huge sprint and reached. Kunti hugged him tightly so did his brothers.
Bhishma was devastated to see the whole palace on fire and he knew he was way to late to save his beloved pandavas.
Pandavas kept on digging the hole made by Bhima and all of then together punched the earth together and simaltanously Bhishma threw the baruna astra to tame the fire down.
Precap : Bhishma brings pandavas ashes in Hastinapur.
P.S I cried to much seeing todays episode. God so many emotions. Hats off to the entire team of Mahabharata.
