For uninitiated, Ashwatthama was son of Guru Dronacharya, teacher of Kauravas and Pandavas. In battle of Mahabharata, he fought on side of Kauravas, like his far. He is one of seven immortals or ‘Chiranjeevi’ in Hindu religion, along with Hanuman, Parashurama, Rishi Vyasa, Vibhishana, King Bali, and Acharya Kripa. Ashwatthama was born with a jewel on his forehe that gave him protection against hunger, thirst, and fatigue.
