Sañjaya said: Your sons—Viviṁśati, Citrasena, and Vikarṇa—though surrounded by a great host, engaged Bhīmasena in battle. The scene underscores the relentless escalation of war, where even numerical strength and protective formations are tested against a single formidable warrior’s resolve and prowess.
