Arjuna and Karna are finally at battle with one another. During the battle, Karna manages to break Arjuna's bow. According to the rules of war and out of respect, Arjuna asks for time to retrieve a new weapon, but Karna continues with his attack. When Karna was about to attack, Arjuna manages to fix his bow and launches his bow. Karna's chariot wheel gets stuck to the ground. Karna asks Arjuna for time to fix his chariot well, but Arjuna continues on with his attack just like Karna did to him. Eventually, Arjuna shoots an arrow right into Karna and ends the battle
