Explanation:

raupadi (Sanskrit: द्रौपदी, romanized: draupadī, lit. 'Daughter of Drupada'), also referred to as Krishnaa, Panchali and Yajnaseni, is the heroine of the Hindu epic, Mahabharata. According to the epic, she was the common wife of the five Pandava brothers—Yudhishthira, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula and Sahadeva. She is described to be the most beautiful woman of her time and was prophesied to bring the end of many warriors.

Draupadi and her brother, Dhrishtadyumna, were born from a yajna (fire sacrifice) organized by King Drupada of Panchala. Arjuna won her hand in marriage, but she married the five brothers because of her mother-in-law's misunderstanding. After facing problems created by her polyandry, she became the queen of Indraprastha. She had five sons, one from each Pandava, who were collectively addressed as the Upapandavas. Yudhishthira performed the Rajasuya ritual and achieved the status of the emperor. His jealous cousin Duryodhana, the chief of Kaurava brothers, invited him to play a gambling game in Hastinapura. After Yudhishthira lost Draupadi in the game, she was humiliated by the Kauravas, Shakuni and Karna. The Kaurava prince Dushasana tried to disrobe her but the divine intervention of the god Krishna saved her honour.

Later she and her husbands were sent in exile for 13 years with the last year being incognito. While spending the exile, many men including Jayadratha tried to harass her. For incognito, Draupadi disguised herself as a maid and served Sudeshna, queen of Matsya. Kichaka, the general of the kingdom, tried to molest her, but was killed by Bhima. After the Kurukshetra War, her insults were avenged, but she lost her father, brothers and her five children. At the end of the epic, Pandavas and Draupadi retired to the Himalayas and walked to heaven. Because of her partiality towards Arjuna, Draupadi was the first one to fall on the way.

Draupadi's story has been an inspiration for various arts and performances. There are many books based on her life. In Hinduism, she is extolled as one of the panchakanya ("five virgins"), archetypes of female chastity whose names are believed to dispel sin when recited. In some parts of the sub-continent, a sect of Draupadi exists, where she is worshipped as a goddess.[1]
