Before Draupadi, there was Hidimbi the first wife, the first queen, and the first daughter-in-law whose place was denied and forgotten over time. Bhima’s Wife brings her long-silenced story into the light, giving voice to a woman who lived in the shadows of a legendary epic.

Born different and judged for it, Hidimbi was both fierce and compassionate. She saved Bhima, stood by his family even after deep personal loss, and gave birth to a son she would one day be forced to sacrifice for a cause that never fully accepted her. Her life was shaped by love, betrayal, loyalty, and unbearable sacrifice.

Powerful and deeply moving, Bhima’s Wife is a reimagining of a forgotten woman’s strength and pain. Through Hidimbi’s journey, Bhima’s Wife asks difficult questions about justice, belonging, and why some voices are erased while others become legend.
