Who is karna ? Is Karna killed Is his sons ?

Unknown Facts About Karna

Draupadi had always longed for a husband with wisdom and moral values, who would be strong and well built, a good archer, handsome and intelligent. In Mahabharat, Karna was the only one with these qualities.The gods knew Draupadi's wish well ahead of time and gave all these qualities to one man, Karna. Also, all these qualities weren equally divided in the Pandavas (Yudhishthir for moral values, Bhim for physical strength, Arjun for archery, Nakul is handsome and Sahadev is most intelligent).

Karna was the best archer (next to Eklavya) too and Arjun was no match for him. Dronacharya knew that Karna is far superior than Arjun, hence he denied to teach him archery lessons.Bhishma knew that Karna was superior to Arjun and thus prevented him from entering the war during initial days.It was fate or destiny that parted Draupadi and Karna. He would have been a better 'only' husband for her than the five she got. He was better than the Pandavas in every possible way and he loved Draupadi too.He had attended her Swayamvar only to marry her, but was asked by Krishna to opt out, as he was not the King’s son. Although Krishna knew, he was originally a king.Draupadi too was impressed by Karna’s look and wanted to know him more, but she was made to believe that Karna was not a suitable match.As was his destiny, Draupadi married the Pandavas and Karna was disappointed. 

He then married twice in his lifetime. Karna's first wife was Vrushali. She was Satyasen's sister. She belonged to the Charioteer Clan. Karna's adoptive father Adhiratha wanted Karna to get married to her.

\

Vrushali went sati on Karna's pyre after his death. Duryodhan also mentions that Vrushali was not an ordinary person but of a very high character equivalent to Karna.Karna's second wife's name was Supriya. Nothing much has been talked of Supriya in the great epic. Even in the case of Vrushali, very little is known. Karna had 9 sons from Vrushali and Supriya. His son’s names are - Vrishasena, Vrishaketu, Chitrasena,  Satyasena, Sushena, Shatrunjaya, Dvipata, Banasena and Prasena.

All his sons took part in the Kurukshetra war. Prasena was killed by Satyaki,  Shatrunjaya, Vrishasena and Dvipata by Arjun, Banasena by Bhim, Chitrasena, Satyasena and Sushena by Nakul. Vrishakethu was his only son who survived the war. Karna's eldest wife Vrushali went sati after Karna's death.After the war, when the Pandavas were made aware of Karna's lineage, Vrishakethu was offered to be the King of Indraprasth, being the son of their eldest brother. He was under the patronage of Arjun and took part in various battles that preceded the Ashvamedh yagna.

When Karna was dying, Krishna came to take his test of his Philanthropy (danveerta). Karna said he didn't have anything to give. Krishna reminded him that he had a golden tooth. Karna picked up the nearby stone, broke his tooth, and gave it to Krishna. At this Krishna told him to ask anything, he wishes.Karna said he was cheated a lot because he was a suta-putra - son of a charioteer. He wanted that next time Krishna(Tarak Brahma) comes on earth, he should do something for the unprivileged class of the society. Secondly, he wanted that next time Krishna came, he should take birth in his kingdom. And third, he wished that his last-rights should be done at a place where there is no sin. So Krishna did his last-rights on his hands.Karna's real name was Dambhodabhava. 

Who is Shakuni ?

Unknown Facts About Shakuni 

1. Who is Shakuni's real enemy ?
According to the great epic mahabharata it is true that 
Shakuni was not happy to see his sister Gandhari marrying a blind man and so his immediate enemy was Bhishma who brought the proposal of a blind man for his sister. In addition, there is another legendary story which highlights the fact that the ancestors of Hastinapur destroyed the entire clan of Gandhara. This is one of the reasons why Shakuni vowed that he would end the entire Kuru line .

2. Shakuni Had 2 sons - Uluka & Vrikaasur 
Since Shakuni is mostly seen in Hastinapur, his own family was never given much emphasis. However, the fact remains that he had two sons - Uluka and Vrikaasur. Ulook or Uluka wanted to take his father back to Gandhara before Pandavas came from Agyatvas but, Shakuni did not go back as he wanted to sit and initiate the Kurukshetra war. 

3. Shakuni Was Also Called as Saubala 
Shakuni’s father, the Gandhara King Subala had 100 sons and only daughter. Shakuni was the youngest son of the Gandhara clan while Gandhari was the only daughter. Although Shakuni was the last born, he was the most intelligent among all his brothers. Since he was the 100th son of Subala, he is also called as Saubala. 

 
4. Shakuni’s Dice Was Made From Ivory & Not Bones of Anybody 
The Game of Dice is one of the many important chapters of Mahabharat where not only Shakuni but his magical dice too plays a vital role. There is a story that the dice which Shakuni used was made by the back/thigh bone of Shakuni’s father after he died. However, this story finds no place in Mahabharat because all these subplots was created later by different authors.

In reality, Shakuni’s dice was made of ivory and the reason why it is considered as magical because Shakuni was an illusionist, who created an illusion in front of the Pandavas and others, that he won and they lose. 

5. Shakuni Was a Lord Shiva Devotee 
Gandhari, his sister was a Lord Krishna devotee who prayed Lord Krishna all the time even when he was against her son’s army in the Kurukshetra war. However, unlike his sister Shakuni, was not a Vishnu devotee but a Shivaite who offered his prayers to Lord Shiva. 

6. Shakuni Has A Temple Dedicated to Him in Kerala 
Although he is considered as a villain in Mahabharat, he had certain good qualities in him. These good qualities were acknowledged by the Kuravar community in the Kollam District of Kerala where there lies an ancient shrine in Pavithreswaram dedicated to him. You can see a throne in the temple which is believed to be used by Shakuni. People believe that this is the same place where Shakuni got Moksha. They think he turned into Lord Shakuni.

Is Yudhishthira married With Devika ?

Unknown Facts About Pandavas & Draupadi

When it comes to Mahabharat, there’ll be hardly anyone of the Hindu religion who would have not heard about the epic.  However, there are many things in this scripture that are neither told to anyone, and also people have not paid any attention to it. This epic is filled with innumerable interesting facts.

In the Shastras, Mahabharat is also known as the fifth Veda. The writer of this epic is Ved Vyas. Today we will tell you about that secret of Mahabharat you would have never heard or thought of.

 Bhim’s wife Hidimba was a witch. When she saw Bhim, she fell in love with him and shared her feeling with Kunti, who then allowed Hidimba to marry Bhim. Bhim agreed to marry but on one condition. As per his condition he would stay with Hidimba till the time she gives birth to their son. And that he would return to his family as soon as a boy is born.

 Soon Bhim and Hidimba were married and their son was born, who was extremely brave. In a very little time only, he grew more powerful than the demons. He had no hair on his head. Seeing his bald head, Hidimba and Bhim kept his name as Ghatotkach.  

 After escaping from Lakshya Bhawan’s fire, the Pandavas entered Ekchakra nagri and started living in a Brahmin’s house. There was a demon called Bakasur who lived near Ekchakra Nagri. The villagers of Ekchakra Nagri used to feed him every day and the person who would carry the food for him would also be eaten by Bakasur. Bakasur was killed by Bhim.When Guru Dronacharya had defeated his friend Drupad by his students, Drupud decided to take revenge. King Drupad then performed a yagya with the help of a tapasvi through which a Divya Kumar was born. He had a crown on his head and Shield on his body. Soon there was Akashvani that he is born to kill Dronacharya.

Soon a Yagyadevi was born from the same yagya. Then there was an Akashvani that the beautiful woman is born for the benefit of all the rishis.  Because of this, the Kauravas got scared. Drupad kept the name of this brave heart as Dhrishtaghumna and the woman’s name as Draupadi.

According to Mahabharat, Draupadi in her previous birth was the daughter of a rishi. Since she was unable to get married, she got upset and started meditating. Impressed with her meditation, Lord Shiva appeared before her and asked her to wish anything. She asked for a husband who has all the qualities. She repeated her wish five times and therefore Lord Shiva blessed her with five husbands. 

When the Pandavas were going with their mother to Panchaldesh, they had an argument with Gandharvaraj Chitrarath, following which Arjun and Chitrarath had a huge fight. Arjun won the battle, but left Chitrarath alive as demanded by Duryodhan. Chitrarath happy to be left alive gifted the Pandavas with great horses and also taught Arjuna the art of Gandharva wisdom.

Before going for the swayamvar of Draupadi, Pandavas appointed Dhaumya Rishi as the purohit. They appointed him as their purohit as he was really great and knowledgeable. They thought because of him, Draupadi will only choose them.

Panchalnareash Drupud wanted that Draupadi’s marriage to be with Arjun and therefore for the swayamvar, he made such an arrow that nobody could use and hanged such an instrument in the sky that kept revolving. This instrument in the sky was to be targeted. Drupad knew that no one but Arjun will be able to do this task. The day when Draupadi’s swayamvar was kept, it was the 16th day of the function. For Draupadi’s swayamvar, not just the kings and princes, but also the Gods and Yamraj were witnesses. 

When no one was able to complete the task, Arjuna in disguise of a sanyasi came there and completed the task easily. Draupadi put the garland in Arjun’s neck. Seeing this the Kshatriya kings got very upset and ran after Drupad to kill him as they felt insulted. To save Drupad, Bhima and Arjun came forward and defeated every king present there. The battle ended after Lord Krishna intervened and Arjun brought Draupadi home.When Drupad came to know that the sanyasi’s were actually the Pandavas and that Draupadi will the wife of all five, he expressed disappointment as this was against religion. That time Maharshi Ved Vyas came there and told Drupad about Draupadi’s wish that was granted by Lord Shiva in her previous birth.

When Dhritrashtra and Bhishma came to know that the Pandavas were alive, they were called to Hastinapur. So that there is no fight in future between the Pandavas and Kauravas, Dhritrashtra divided the property into two equal halves.  Soon the kingdom of Pandavas started looking like heaven and Yudhishthir named it as Indraprastha.

One day in Yudhishthirs Kingdom, few robbers stole the cow of a Brahmin. That Brahmin asked Arjun’s helped. Arjun’s weapons were kept in Yudhishthir’s palace where he was alone with Draupadi. Arjun thought for a second that if he enter Yudhishthir’s palace, he will break the rule and would have to spend 12 years in forest, but if does not help the Brahmin, it will be against the religion.

So he went to Yudhishthir’s palace and picked his weapons and brought the Brahmin’s cow back. 

Arjun, however, had to leave for forest for 12 years. During his exile, Arjun was once bathing in River Ganga. That time Nagkanya pulled him inside the river. Her name was Ulupi. He spent a night with Uupi there. Next day when he was leaving, Ulupi blessed her that he would never be affected by any water animal.

   

During exile, Arjun reached Manipur. The king of Manipur was Chitravahan whose daughter was Chitrangada. One day Arjun saw Chitrangada and fell in love with her. He went to meet her father and aksed for her hand. Chitravahan agreed but on one condition that their son will only carry forward Chitravahan’s kingdom. Arjun agreed and got married. After giving birth to a baby boy, Arjun left the palace and went on a teerthyatra.

During exile, when Arjun was bathing in Saubhadra Teerth, his legs slipped and crocodile grabbed one of his legs. Arjun lifted his leg and the crocodile came out with him. The moment that crocodile came out, it turned into a beautiful woman. She was cursed to be a crocodile by a rishi. 

During exile Arjun reached Prabhas. When Lord Krishna came to know about it, he went to meet Arjun. From there, Krishna brought Arjun to Dwarka. One day when Arjun saw Krishna’s sister Subhadra, he got attracted towards her. Subhadra also felt the same for Arjun. Krishna understood about their feeling and advised Arjun for Subhadraharan.

One day when Subhadra reached a hill to pray, Arjun abducted her. When the Yadav’s came to know about it, they decided to battle with the Pandavas. Krishna however, stopped them and they both were called back to Dwarka where Arjun and Subhadra were married with proper rituals.

Draupadi had one son each from each of the Pandavas. Yudhishthir had another wife named Devika and they had a son together called Yodhay. 

According to Hindu religion there are a total of 33 Gods.fter hearing about Krishna’s death, The Pandavas lost interest in the world. Yudhisthira and the Pandavas decided to go to heaven. They along with Draupadi, once again they donned deer skin and tree bark. Parikshita was appointed the king. Kripa was his guru and Yuyutsu the regent.

After taking leave of them and all the people of Hastinapura, the Pandavas and Draupadi started their journey.

 First they went to Dwarka and saw it immersed in the sea. Their Agni came and said to Arjuna, "Your Gandhiva and the quivers have served their purpose. I have obtained these from lord Varuna. Now these should be returned to him." Arjuna worshiped his Gandhiva and quivers and returned then to Agni.The Pandavas reached Himvana. On the way Draupadi, Sahdeva, Nakula, Arjuna and Bhima dropped dead on by one. Only one dog, who had been with them remained. When Yudhisthira reached the peak. Indra came to take him to the heavens. Yudhisthira had been granted the privilege of going to the world of gods in his human form. So great was his righteousness.The dog changed into a divine form. He was Dharma, the father of Yudhisthira. In the grand hall of the heavens Yudhisthira saw, Krishna surrounded by all gods. Karna was sitting among the Adityas, Bhishma among the Vasus and his ancestors and heroes and warriors who had died in the war were there. A surprising presence there was that of Duryodhana.Narada explained to Yudhisthira that Duryodhana never showed cowardice, he had been a just and good king, he died a brave’s death that too in the holy place. Samantpanchaka. He gained entry to the heavens for these reasons.

 Yudhisthira had told only one lie in his otherwise sinless life. For that he was made to come to the heavens by a way coming from the side of the hell. All his brothers and others had to spend a few hours in hell for their sins.

Who is Krishan ?

 10 Unknown Facts About Lord Krishna

10. Death of  Krishna :

After the great war, Gandhari anathematized Lord Krishna that his kingdom will perish by flood with his people killing them. Gandhari was ardent devotee of Lord Vishnu ( and Krishna as he is an Avatar of Lord Vishnu ) and hence the curse was pre-destined, part of bigger picture. After 36 years of war, the wheels of time turned and true to the curse chain of events led to Yadavs killing themselves. This was again put into place by lord himself, for he prayed for a son like Lord Shiva, God of destruction. His son started the chain of events which eventually destroyed Dwarka. Seeing the destruction Lord Krishna went away with his brother and the river consumed Dwarka, as per the curse. Balaram vexed from the disaster sat in mediation and was taken away by Adisesha( Balaram was incarnation of Adisesha ) This lead Lord Krishna to move towards his end as human form. Krishna was killed by a simple hunter’s arrow. This arrow was part of the mysticism which destroyed Dwarka. The hunter was destined to be the one who ends Krishna’s human form. It was Lord Vishnu himself in his earlier incarnation, Lord Rama, had granted Angada the boon to kill his father’s killer which happened to be Lord Vishnu himself. The Equality in life and death is mesmerizing for the law is followed to the dot in multiple aspects, the more you think the more sense it makes.

9. Krishna In Mahabharata War :

The King of Dwarka was a deadly and powerful ruler whom one would not want as a war opponent. In battle of Kurukshetra both kauravas and pandavas came to seek his help in war. Arjuna sat at lord Krishna s feet while He was asleep, Duryodhana sat beside him. When Lord woke up, he noticed Arjuna first and as Arjuna was younger Krishna gave him the option to choose first, either Narayan himself sans any weapons and vow to not fight or the narayani Army of over 10 Lakh Soldiers who could rival Krishna himself, with all their weapons. Arjuna chooses his friend philosopher and guide over the army. Krishna later became charioteer for Arjuna. Krishna guided Arjuna through his painful dilemma of fighting his teacher, Bhishma Pitamah, Uncles and cousins cousins. The Bhagavad Gita was this guidance and has been a powerful and all consuming answer for any question anyone may come across. Krishna helped Arjuna keep his vow of killing the killer of his son Abhimanyu, Jayadratha. Arjuna vowed to kill Jayadratha within one day of Jayadratha killing Abhimanyu and in case he failed Arjuna promised to kill himself. As the protective layers around Jayadratha were multiplied, Arjuna couldn’t reach him. Seeing this Lord Krishna used Sudarshana Chakra to create solar eclipse and assuming it to be after sunset Jayadratha came out and taunted Arjuna at this defeat. Krishna then cleared the sky and in presence of sun Arjuna came true on his words. The warrior Karna could rival Arjuna on field and Krishna, with help of Indra had Karna handover his amour. As Arjuna s charioteer he sunk the chariot down so that Karna s bharamastra could not reach its aim, i.e. Arjuna’s neck. The Mahabharata would have been different without Krishna is an understatement .

8.Krishan's Wifes & Gopi's :

With 8 queens, Ashta-Bharyas or Patt-Rani, and over 16100 Gopikas, Lord Krishna has over 16108 wives in all. We have many different branches of thought here. The base remains that the 16100 were in fact prisoners of Narakasura. When Krishna defeated Narakasura the princesses were free. Having been ostracized from society the free prisoners sought Krishna’s help and He being the generous and righteous King gave them the title of his Queen. The branches are as follows, some people believe that Krishna never married the 16000 princes, they were his Gopikas. As nuns wear the ring as symbol of their commitment to their Lord, they marry the lord in a sense. The people of this thought believe that the 16000 brides are similar to the above ideology. Another set believes that as Vishnu-ji in His previous birth as Lord Rama were believer and practitioner of monogamy, Lord Vishnu blessed the women wishing to be Rama s wife with a boon that the wish would be fulfilled in their later birth with Lord Vishnu next avatar. Many sages thus prayed to be Lords companion and hence Lord Krishna had 16000 wives. The Belief in every thought is the same, it is that Lord Krishna is ideal example of giving women a stand in the society, as the evil they face are not their fault and doesn’t licence the social ban.

7. Krishan V/s Kans :

Perhaps the most known and celebrated act of Lord Krishna was Battle with his maternal uncle.  Kansa was Prince of Mathura and brother of Krishna’s birth Mother Devaki. Kansa overthrew his father’s reign and settled on the throne of Mathura, arranged his own coronation and thus became the King. The father Ugrasena was thrown in prison. The Divine prophecy said that Kans would meet his end at the hands of his sisters eight child. Fearing the worst, Kansa imprisoned his sister and killed all her six children as soon as they were born. The seventh was Balaram and was shifted to Rohini’s womb. The eight child was Krishna and was saved and shipped off to Gokul to be raised by Nanda and Yashodha. As predicted, Krishna returned to Mathura, defeated the Kansa and reinstated King Ugrasena. Thus the kingdom of Mathura was safeguarded and destiny fulfilled.

6. Childhood victories of Krishna :

The fight with Kansa was ante-ceded by many other fights which are fondly looked upon as the Lords greatness. Few well known are as follows. The demon Putna was sent to kill Krishna as a baby. Dressed as a wet-nurse she approached Yashodha and asked permission to feed infant Krishna. The little boy then sucked the life out of her and hence Putna meet her end. The maternal act of feeding by Putna was rewarded by Lord Krishna and hence Putna achieved salvation. Snake Demon Aghasura was Putna’s brother . To avenge the death of Putna, Aghasura opened his mouth wide as cave mouth and lured the kids inside him. When Krishna came to know about this, he liberated both the kids and the serpent. Another victory was with multi-headed serpent Kaliya. Kaliya poisoned waters of Yamuna and when Krishna decided to end the terror the inhabitants of Vrindaban were apprehensive about losing the beloved Child. However Krishna being himself, tamed the serpent and rid the river of its poison. This is among few of the childhood victories of Lord Krishna.

5. Spells of Innocence and Mysticism :

Lord Krishna was a mischievous child to say the least! Makhan-chor, as we fondly call him, the churned butter was tied high up to save it from the little tyke, nonetheless Krishna found a way around with sling-shots and continued antics to rile-up gopis. To save the village from the havoc that rain caused, courtesy of Lord Indra, Krishna picked up the mighty Goverdhan mountain on his pinkie finger. As a kid once Yashodha-maiya tried to tie him with a piece of rope to keep him from running away and getting into troubles. The rope wouldn’t fit him and fell short. This kept happening with every size of rope. Mesmerized Yashodha-maiya saw into Krishna’s open mouth to see the whole universe in baby Krishna’s mouth . No one escaped the innocent smile, disarming charm and beauty of the dusky child. Songs  are written today to celebrate the playfulness with the gopis, love with Radha and maternal bliss of Yashodha and Devki. Everyone smiles at the thought of Lord Krishna and that says everything about the lovable Lord.

4. Love struck Ladies :

Radha is well known to be the childhood love of Krishna. Every romantic artist worth his dime creates a testimony  to Krishna with Radha. However they were never married. Krishna left Vrindaban for his education and destiny and Radhe-Krishna became the backdrop of literature. Many women were infatuated with Krishna and fell in love with Him. History remembers Radha and later Meera. Meerabai was a princess of Rajasthan who became so en-captured by the statue that she never let it away from her sight till her last breath. Devotional songs and movies have portrayed these stories since then and till date.

3. The way we see Krishna : 

Pictuer Lord Krishna. Handsome posture, blue skinned, peacock feather on head, yellow dhoti, one feet firmly on ground and other slightly pointed towards the sky and of course the flute. Now let’s break it all down. Blue color symbolizes the endless and infinite sky. Our Lord is powerful beyond our comprehension in every aspect be it love or strength or compassion. The King has crowns decorated by jewels, the crown is responsibility and in itself is work of art and heavy because of the precious stones. Lord Krishna shoulders the responsibility of universe and the peacock feather represents the point of view of Krishna towards this responsibilities, feather light! The Flute is epitome of melody and calmness which is again seen by the tiny smile on the face. The posture is symbolic of being grounded and high flying at the same time. Its balance between dream and reality, the way of life taught by the Krishna.

2. Friendship With sudama :

Famous tale of Sudama and boiled rice. In the learning phase Krishna and Sudama were fast friends. Once when they were in the forest together, having spent the whole day there, both children were hungry. Sudama however requested to finish off Krishna’s food as well. For his friend Krishna gave it up. In later phase of life when Sudama was ridden with poverty he approached his childhood friend on insistence of his family. Sudama took boiled rice for the King of Dwarka and as Krishna ate individual grains of rice, Sudama’s house is said to transform and fill with wealth. However Sudama felt guilty of approaching Krishna for monetary reasons and hence he spent his life outside the mansion, away from the wealth and sticking to the olden way of life.

1. Companion :

The flute is always there when we picture Krishna. The flute is said to awaken the birds a melody so surreal that people stopped mid-way to just listen to the music. It is said that Radha herself didn’t like Krishna’s love for flute. The jealousy was well known and chuckled at. The different view of flute is that it always has seven holes. Krishna flows through the flute and they are an entity in them-self. Human is laced with seven deadly sins and when we fight the seven sins, Krishna flows through us and we get the sweet release after death. The flute is more than forest reed, it’s our way to ‘moksha’

Is Draupadi had married Karna ?

Unknown Facts About Draupadi

Draupadi was the daughter of Drupad, the king of Panchala, and the wife and queen of the five great Pandavas, renowned alike for her loveliness. She reduced her enemies to the ashes. This fiery princess bent on vengeance could be compassionate and generous, too.

Draupadi had developed the strength to bear the trials of life. She had resolved firmly not to harm the good people, and not to bend before the wicked. Draupadi was a woman, but she became as famous as the heroic Pandavas because of such determination.

Her personality was one of lightning and thunder. This unforgettable heroine is in no way less than Bheema or Arjuna in strength and spirit, valour and virtue. Her story is a saga of suffering and disgrace but she took everything in her stride and vanquished each one of the perpetrators of her humiliation and agony. 

Click on this slide show to know some shocking secrets of Draupadi….According to a legend from Mahabharat, during the thirteenth year of the exile of the Pandavas, Draupadi saw a ripe jambul (roseapple) hanging from a tree. She plucked it to have it. No sooner had she done this, Krishna came from somewhere and stopped her from eating it. According to Krishna, the ripe fruit was supposed to be the fruit with which a sage was supposed to break his twelve-year fast.

Not finding the fruit at its place, could earn the wrath of the sage, resulting in more trouble for the Pandavas and her. Draupadi begged of Krishna to help her out of this impending problem.
Krishna, then said that the fruit could be put back at its original place, only by someone who holds no secrets. Draupadi had only one option and to confess some guilt. Seeing no way out, Draupadi walked up her husband’s and confessed to them, 
that though she was a chaste woman and loved all the five husbands, there was someone else that she longed for. 

She always had loved and respected Karna, the arch-enemy of the Pandavas. This was a shock to all the husbands, but none said anything. Having confessed, she went and put the fruit back on the branch of the tree and all was well.

A simple story, and not mentioned in many versions, but considered to be an important episode in many folk renditions of Mahabharata and sometimes better known as ‘Jambul-akhyan’, the jambul-episode. 

Many well known authors and re-tellers of Mahabharat have explored this angle of Draupadi. All popular versions have mentioned that Draupadi did not love all five husbands equally (not possible for anyone to be capable of equitable love), 
and that she loved and longed for Arjuna more amongst all the brothers. However, it is also true, that Arjuna had never reciprocated the emotion as he was more in love with Subhadra (Krishna’s sister) than anybody else. 
The hidden love of Draupadi for Karna is something that has been explored by many writers. Some have even justified the romance, in the sense that the powerful and the dynamic character of Draupadi could find her match only in Karna and not in the five brothers, who were ‘incomplete’ without one another. It is said that even Karna had regretted his behaviour during the disrobing of Draupadi in the Kuru court after she was wagered and lost in the dice-game, and the behaviour was more to avenge his insult during the swayamvar of Draupadi. 

The undercurrent of an unexpressed romance has always been suspected in the entire Mahabharat.This myth has dual purpose. One is that everyone has secrets, which they keep to themselves. Some of them are not revealed out of fear of antagonising ones loved ones and the fear of losing them if the secret is out. Sometimes it is not revealed as it would upset the Apple cart, so as to say. In this case, it did shock the five husbands, but they respected the honesty and the forthrightness of Draupadi and more so because of the cause of revealing the secret, i.e. to avoid earning the wrath of the fasting sage. The significance of a confession is 
well brought out and the fact that it only does well and seldom any harm.
http://shubhamambani.blogspot.com/
The second purpose is that through this myth, the Pandavas also get the message that in spite of five brave husbands, they had failed their wife when she needed them the most. When Draupadi was being disrobed after she was lost in the dice-game, none of the ‘brave’ husbands could come to her rescue. It brought out the weakness amongst each one of them, and that Draupadi had a soft corner for someone who was more a man than the five of them.
This was an insult, which they had to bear without any malice towards their wife. Also, being the wife of five, made her that much vulnerable to such acts, than it did to their own wives, which each had taken for himself.

Think about it, if Draupadi had married Karna would Mahabharata have happened?
