There he meets Uttara (Kanchana) daughter of Virata king and falls in love with her. Arjuna alias Bruhanala sees Abhimanyu and warns him that his presence may harm his parents. So he calls his elder brother Ghatotkacha (Nellore Kantha Rao) and with his help he meets Uttara. Meanwhile, Ghatotkacha eats away the food cooked where Bhima sees and throws him out. In that anger, Ghatotkacha starts destroying the kingdom. King Virata blames Pandavas in disguise responsible for these events. Pandavas pray Krishna for help. Krishna calm downs Abhimanyu & Ghatotkacha by giving an assurance that he will make Uttara's marriage with Abhimanyu and he also keeps a condition that they should be prisoners to Virata for few days.
