Duryodhan warns Dronacharya of Pandav's formidable warriors and their vows for revenge in the Bhagwad Gita, inciting him for battle.
In the Bhagwad Gita verse 1:4, Duryodhan is talking to Dronacharya. He says that in the Pandav army, there were many heroic fighters such as Yuyudhan, Virat and Dhrupad, similar to Arjun and Bhim in valour. Duryodhan names the great warriors who could cause a lot of problems for his side in the battle. The Pandavs had seen their wife being insulted in the royal assembly. They were sent to a palace made from highly inflammable material, which was then set on fire; Bhim was poisoned by Duryodhan, and Pandavs kingdom was taken away from them.
