Now as Bhima who had sworn to kill all the Dhritarashtra’s 100 son calls Vikarna a man of Dharma and advise him to step aside. But Vikarna replies that even knowing that Kauravas would not win a war against a side with Sri Krishna on it, he cannot forsake Duryodhana.Vikarna reminds Bhima the Dice game and said-
“That was my duty then
And this is my duty now
Fight me o son of Vayu.”
Thus, when Bhima kills Vikarna after a mace fight. And his death brought tears to the eyes of Bhima.
Bhīma, with a caring heart, uttered - “Vikarna, you know dharma and you were the only one who spoke in favour of us and Draupathi in the court. Me, battling against you or slaying you is only because of my vow. Forgive me for my rage against you.”
On hearing the words of Bhīma, Vikarna replied – “Brother, don’t ask for forgiveness. What you are about to do is your Kshatriya duty. The reason we both are here is all for our love for our brother. Remember your Kshatriya duty and battle with me. I will be happy to die for my brother.”
