A Correct answer
Explanation

Ashwattama (Ashwatthama) is one of the eight Chiranjeevis in Hindu mythology - immortals granted eternal life. He was cursed by Lord Krishna to remain immortal and suffer for all eternity for his misdeeds, particularly the killing of Draupadi's five sons. Unlike other immortals who received this as a boon, Ashwattama's immortality is a punishment.
