Draupadi

In the epic Mahabharata, Draupadi, also known as Devanagari is the adopted daughter of King Drupada of Panchāla and the wife of the five Pandavas. When Yudhisthira becomes the king of Hastinapura at the end of the war, Draupadi becomes his queen. She is sometimes called Krishnaa as also Panchali, (one from the kingdom of Panchāla). She had five sons by each of the Pandavas: Prativindhya, Sutasoma, Shruthakeerti, Satanika, and Srutasena. [more]
