A Correct answer
Explanation

In the Mahabharata, Urvashi, a celestial nymph, cursed Arjuna to live as a eunuch for one year after he rejected her romantic advances, saying he saw her as a mother figure. This curse became a blessing during the Pandavas' final year of exile (Agyatavas), when Arjuna lived as a eunuch named Brihannala in King Virata's court, teaching music and dance to the princess Uttara.
