Who is Bhima?
In the Hindu epic Mahabharata, Bhim, also called Vrikodara, is the second of the Pandava brothers. He is one of the central characters and is symbolic of great strength.
The Mahabharata relates many events which portray the immense might of Bhima. One of the central reasons behind the envy of Duryodhana towards the Pandavas was the inability of the Kauravas to match Bhima's strength. Eventually Bhima is responsible for slaying all hundred Kaurava brothers in the Kurukshetra War.
