VIDULA (A QUEEN )

(The D in this name is pronounced like 'th' in 'bother'. L is pronounced like 'l' in 'lip'.)

See the links 'sanjaya1' too.

Vidula was a coronated queen of Souveera provinces in ancient times. When her son Sanjaya was once defeated by Sindhu king and lay in distress without trying to make any efforts to take revenge, She goaded him with scintilating encouragement, arousing his pride, anger and prowess. He felt ashamed of his distress and ran onto his enemies and routed them to defeat.

Kunthi told this episode to Krisha to relate to paandavas so that they will be scintilated by that speech and take revenge on their arch rival cousins.

But, the famous Thelugu translation all together dropped out this nice episode .
