There we witnessed something remarkable in Dhṛṣṭadyumna’s resolve: the hero stood alone in the engagement, unmoving like a mountain.

तं च दीप्तं शरं घोरमायान्तं मृत्युमात्मनः । चिच्छेद शरवृष्टिं च भारद्वाजे मुमोच ह॥६-४९-१२॥
And that blazing, formidable arrow—approaching him like death itself—he cut down; and he released a rain of arrows against Bhāradvāja (Droṇa).

Then all the Pāñcālas, together with the Pāṇḍavas, raised a great cry on seeing that exceedingly difficult feat accomplished by Dhṛṣṭadyumna.

Thereafter, the valiant warrior, seeking Droṇa’s elimination, hurled a javelin of great velocity, adorned with gold and vaidūrya.

तामापतन्तीं सहसा शक्तिं कनकभूषणाम् । त्रिधा चिक्षेप समरे भारद्वाजो हसन्निव॥६-४९-१५॥
As that gold-adorned javelin rushed in suddenly, Bhāradvāja (Droṇa), as if smiling, split it into three in the engagement.
