Harana (elopement)

Engaged to Duryodhana and their impending wedding fixed by Balarama, Arjuna grows infatuated by Subhadra.

[5] In this legend from the Bhagavata Purana, Rukmini sends a letter to Krishna with a Brahmin messenger, beseeching the deity to save her from her marriage to Shishupala.

In the epic, Ravana sends a rakshasa called Maricha to take the form of a golden deer to the forest where Rama and Sita stayed in exile.

While Rama attempts to capture the deer at his wife's insistence, Ravana abducts Sita and takes her to Lanka.

Besotted with Draupadi after observing her beauty outside the hermitage of the Pandavas, he asks her to abandon her husbands and marry him instead.
