» funkyabhi - Draupadi's tresses

Draupadi was dragged by her beautiful long tresses by dushshasana,. He tried to ruin her honour by pulling her by her long tresses. If in indian mythology a woman's hair had such importance that they symbolise their honour and pride. It seems by the fact that draupadi let her hairs lose for complete 13 years and finally braided those lovely tresses only after washing them with her enemy's blood!
