 Mahabharata " ADI PARVA  "
Prontamente Hidimbi obbedì e corse nella direzione che il fratello le aveva indicato, finché, giunta sul posto, vide cinque figure che dormivano e una che montava la guardia seduta su di un masso: era un uomo, dallo sguardo furibondo, che stringeva i pugni per la rabbia e mormorava terribile minacce.
Infatti il periodo tranquillo che aveva seguito l'unione di Bhima con Hidimbi non aveva certo cancellato il grave problema che avvelenava la loro esistenza, e cioè la persecuzione del cugino Duryodhana.
Durante il loro cammino in quella foresta intricata incontrarono Vyasa, il quale consigliò loro di recarsi a Ekachakra, un piccolo paese situato a oriente, abitato da gente pia e religiosa, dove avrebbero potuto visitare numerosi luoghi santi.

And he seemed weary and worn at the end scene of "last illusion." They *could* have done better job with Arjuna's aging process, though!
Once you dig beneath these surface of 'colorful' cast and accents, as well as let go of some of the rather mixed-up chronology of events (including the fact that the marriage between Bhima and Hidimbi supposed to have happened prior to the bridal of Draupadi!), you will be sure to enjoy the rest.
I had a little regret that Peter Brook eliminated a lot of important parts of the great epic, including the dialog between the dying Bhishma and Yudhishthira, after the great war, which was condensed into one monolog about a man reaching out for dropping honey.

I am writing this response not with the intention of posting my opinion, but of mentioning something i noticed in this article.Though I happen to be a person with very limited knowledge, I wish to bring to the author's kind notice that Hidimba's sister's name was Hidimbaa.
I am not aware if she was also called Hidimbi, but adding an 'a' in the end normally signifies a female name, as in names like Krishnaa, as against Krishna which is a male name
Yes, I agree that the second chance holds a careful place than the first.
