Dhrishtadyumna (Sanskrit: धृष्टद्द्युम्न, dhṛṣṭadyumna, lit. he who is courageous and splendorous), also known as Draupada (Sanskrit: द्रौपद, lit. son of Drupada), is a character of the Hindu epic Mahabharata. He was born along with his sister, Draupadi, from a yajna organised by king Drupada of Panchala. He was the commander-in-chief of the Pandava army during the entire Kurukshetra War i.e. for 18 days. Dhrishtadyumna killed Drona, the royal guru, when he was weeping and meditating in the ongoing battle, which was against the rules of engagement.[1]
