While most of us know that Ashwatthama was the recipient, of the deadliest curse in the history of mankind, by none other than the Supreme Lord Krishna himself, not many are aware that Puranas also mention that over a period of time, Ashwatthama overcomes all the effects of his curse, and becomes one of the Saptarishis.
But before we know how he goes to become a Saptarishi, let us find what kind of a person was Ashwatthama.
Ashwatthama, also called Drauni, is the son of Guru Drona and Kripi. He is also the grandson the sage Bharadwaja. He was given the name Ashwatthama meaning ‘the horse-voiced’, as he cried like a horse when he was born. Being a mighty Maharathi (most experienced warrior), he fought on the Kaurava side, against the Pandavas, during the Great War of Kurukshetra.
