Bhanumati is a character of Indian epic Mahabharata. She was described as wife of Duryodhana.According to Mahabharata, she was princess and daughter of king Bhagadatta of Pragjyotishpur(present day Assam) (Mahabharata). As Bhanumati wasn't directly involved in the main events of the epic, not much is written about her in the Mahabharata. In the epic, she is mainly mentioned at two places: in Stri Parva by Queen Gandhari and in Shanti Parva by sage Narada, describing her swayamvar ceremony.
