Vrushali Gaikwad
The ''Mahabharata'' provides limited information about the marital life of Karna, one of the central figures in the epic. His wives are not named in the canonical text and are described as belonging to the ''Sūta'' (charioteer) community. In the '' Stri Parva'', one of his wives, revealed to be the mother of his sons Vrishasena and Sushena, is briefly mentioned lamenting over Karna's death. Over time, various regional traditions and literary adaptations have expanded upon Karna's marital life, often introducing named spouses through imaginative retellings. The Tamil play ''Karna Moksham'' depicts a character named Ponnuruvi as his wife, while the regional '' Kashidasi Mahabharata'' refers to her as Padmavati. In modern literature, particularly in Shivaji Sawant’s novel ''Mrityunjay'', Karna is portrayed as being married to two women—Vrushali and Supriya. In the ''Mahabharata'' Karna's wives play insignificant roles in the original epic. In the ''Udyoga Parva'' of the ''M ...
