Amba is my favourite character.

A woman supreme in her own might she was robbed of her dreams but never compromised.

When she was kidnapped , she could have consented and became the Empress of Hastinapur as she was the eldest sister.

But she didn't , she told about her love for another man in her enemies territory.

Even after getting rejected by her love the lone woman still went to and fro
After vichitraviryas rejection she ordered Bhishma to Marry her as she wanted her little revenge by making him break his Vow.

After getting rejected constantly and trying each and every mean possible she decided that Bhismas death will be from her own hands.

She undertook a severe penance and asked for Bhismas death as a boon.

She was a woman that held her head high.
And always took her matters in her own hands.
