Accounts of this vary across texts and traditions. This entry primarily follows Mahabharata, with other tellings (Puranic traditions (Harivamsha, Bhagavata Purana), Regional retellings) noted where relevant.
Uttar Kumara is the son of Virata and Sudeshna. He is not the same person as his sister Uttara.
While his father was away, the Kauravas raided the cattle. Uttar Kumara boasted that he could defeat them and took Brihannala, Arjuna in disguise, as his charioteer. When he saw the Kaurava army, he ran away in fear. Arjuna brought him back, revealed himself and won the battle.
