Hiḍimbaa (Sanskrit: हिडिम्बा, IAST: Hiḍimbā), or Hiḍimbi, is the rakshasi wife of the Pandava Bhima and the mother of Ghatotkacha in the Mahābhārata.

The story begins in the Lākṣāgṛha of the Mahābhārata after the Pāṇḍavās reached a dense forest.

He smelled the Pāṇḍavās at a distance and as usual asked Hiḍimbi to lure the well-built Bhīma into a trap so he could eat him.

She assumed the form of a very beautiful lady and approached Bhīma, expressing her desire to marry him by revealing her true identity, as well as her brother's intentions.

According to the legend, Hidimbaa stayed back in the forest to perform penance and attain the status of a Goddess.
