"Bin boli baate! Tumse karu, Agar tum Saath ho.... Agar tum saath ho!"
As they arrived in Mathura, a huge bull elephant attacked them, but Krishna calmed the beast with ease and continued on his way. Kansa, now desperate to end Krishna's life, summoned his trusted advisor and instructed, "Find a way to get Krishna into the wrestling ring with Chanura."
Balram, ever vigilant, ensured Subhadra's safety by seating her in the audience, far from the chaos. Meanwhile, Chanura and Mushtika, two powerful and undefeated wrestlers, were ordered by Kansa to lure Krishna and Balarama into the ring and kill them. The minister hesitated, saying, "How can you pit Chanura, a great wrestler, against a mere 16-year-old boy? It's against the dharma, against the rules." But Kansa, furious, retorted, "Forget the rules. If you don't do this, you will die by the end of the day." Thus, it was arranged.
Chanura, frustrated by Krishna's calm demeanor, tried to provoke him, but Krishna remained serene, his mysterious smile never leaving his face. This only infuriated Chanura more. On the other hand, Balram, easily taunted, became enraged and defeated Mushtika swiftly.
In his fury, Kansa could not hold back any longer and decided to kill Krishna himself. As he lunged at Krishna with a sword, Akrur tried to intervene, but Kansa knocked him down. Krishna swiftly rushed toward Kansa, grabbed him by the hair, and dragged him down. Kansa lost his grip on his sword and fell backward. Krishna then pulled him into the wrestling ring, seized his sword, and with one clean stroke, beheaded him.
The citizens of Mathura erupted in joy, free at last from Kansa's tyrannical rule. However, from a distance, a girl silently observed the entire scene.
Soon after, Devaki and Vasudeva were freed. Subhadra, tears of joy in her eyes, ran to them and embraced them for the first time. She anxiously asked her brothers if they were hurt, but they reassured her that they were fine.
A chariot was sent to bring Rohini to Mathura. Yashoda and Nand, however, chose not to stay in the palace. They, along with Vrinda, returned to Gokul after blessing the trio. Vrinda stayed with Subhadra, for she had no one except her aunt, who mistreated her.
In time, Ugrasena, Devaki's father, was crowned the king of Mathura once again, while Vasudeva took his rightful place as the king of the Vrishnis.
Subhadra POV
Subhadra's POV:
My brothers had defeated Kansa. A surge of pride filled my heart for them. Vrinda, my dear sakhi, had agreed to stay with me. That brought me so much happiness! I wish Maiya Yashoda and Baba Nand could have stayed too, but their duties called them back.
I finally met my father, Vasudeva. He hugged me with so much love and warmth that I felt safe and cherished in his arms. My mother, Devaki, who had lost seven sons, my heart ached for her. I couldn't even imagine the pain she had endured. I embraced her tightly, wishing to take away some of her sorrow.
Now, my family felt complete. I had my parents, my brothers, and my sakhi by my side. I couldn't be more grateful or happy.
