Story of Dronacharya

Dron was born from a wooden vessel, and therefore he was called “Dron.” In his youth, he was a close friend of Drupad, the king of Panchal, but later they became enemies. Dron’s son was Ashvatthama. Dron became the teacher of the Kauravs and the Pandavs and was thus known as Dronacharya. After Bheeshm fell in battle, Dron was appointed the supreme commander of the Kaurav army, and the eleventh day of the war was fought under his leadership. During this time, Abhimanyu was killed. Later, Bheem killed an elephant named Ashvatthama, and Yudhishthir told Dron that “Ashvatthama is dead,” softly adding the word “elephant.” Thinking that his son had been killed, Dron laid down his weapons in grief, and at that moment Dhrishtadyumn came and slew him.
