Shuka Bhramam speaks “ Oh! Rajan, Krishna visited Pandavas,  he met Devi Kunthi and offered his humble obeisance, he met  Dharmaputhra, and all the members of the family, and had a pleasurable time conversing with all.  Krishna lived with the Pandavas for quite some time, during this period, the events like the wood Gandava was burned into ashes and pacified Lord Agni who bless Arjuna with the bow Gandeeva, and a beautiful Kindom of  Indraprastha was established in the wood.   One day, Krishna and Arjuna went for hunting expedition, Arjuna saw a beautiful woman engaged in meditation on the riverbank of Kalindi. Arjuna approached her and enquired the reason for her meditation, Kalindi speaks “ Oh! Veera, I am Kalindi, the daughter of Lord Surya, I am conducting Tapasya praying to Lord Vishnu to attain Lord Krishna as my husband.” Thus Arjuna brought Kalindi to Krishna who was seated on the chariot. Krishna married to Devi Kalindi and stayed in Hasthinapur for some time, after that the couple left to Dwaraka.  While living in Dwaraka Krishna received a message from Mithravindha who was the daughter of Vasudeva’s sister Rajadhidevi, she was too devoted to Krishna from her childhood, she had two brothers Vindha and Anuvindha, decided to offer their sister Mithravindha to Duryodhana.  Krishna saved Mithravindha from the custody of her brothers, married her and brought to Dwaraka. Later, he married to Devi Bhadra who was the daughter of Shruthakeerthi, sister of Vasudeva.  There was a king Nagnachith who had a beautiful daughter Sathya.  He desired his daughter  Sathya should get married to Krishna, a grand competition was organized to select a perfect groom for Sathya, whoever fasten the seven untamed bulls from the ground would get the daughter of King Nagnachith as a wedded wife. Many kings participated in the competition were miserably failed, Krishna came to know about the competition and arrived in the ground.  He decided to perform an amusement; he went closer to the untamed bulls and affectionately patted them and fastened them.  Krishna victoriously approached the King Nagnachith, soon Sathya adorned Krishna with a magnificent flower garland.  Thus, Krishna and Sathya got married, Nagnachith offered an abundance of wealth to his son-in-law, the newly wedded couple returned to Dwaraka.  Later, Krishna had a marriage with Lakshmana, the daughter of King of Madhri.”
