Hamsa Dimbaka Janardhana
Version1
Dharmaraja asked Krishna to make a final decision about Rajasuya.Then Krishna said that Yudhishthira being endowed with all the virtues wasqualified to perform the sacrifice. Even though the king knew every thing, stillhe wanted to tell him that it was the convention that whoever defeats the wholeworld will be known as an Emperor. Just then Jarasandha became an emperorhaving defeated all the kings. Now the whole world was under his control.Sisupala became his commander-in-chief of army. Hamsa and Dimbhaka, whowere equal to the gods in strength, took refuge with Jarasandha. Together thethree could face even the three worlds. However, when a king named Hamsawas killed by Balarama during a battle, Dimbhaka thought that it was hisbrother who died and jumped into the river Yamuna, and committed suicide.Then Hamsa also jumped into the river and died. Dejected at the death of those two, Jarasandha returned to his capital.
Version 2
Hamsa Dimbaka sons of Brhamdatta were disciples of Parashurama . Mitrasaha being one of Brahmadatta’s good friends (and minister) had a son named Janardana became friends with the sons of Brahmadatta.
The three BFFs (Hamsa, Dimbhaka and Janardhana) for life had the same education together and even married at the same time. Having performed a tapasya for some time Lord Shiva bestowed upon them weapons like the Maheshvara, Rudra and Brahmashira astras and 2 attendants for self-protection. Since power corrupts, with their newly found boons, they decided to terrorize the entire planet and even mess with Durvasa. Consequently, they were cursed to be killed by the one and only preserver of the three worlds, Maha-Vishnu. Sometime later on Shiva ansha Durvasa informed Krishna of the curse that he had imposed on the sons of Brahmadatta . On hearing the news, Krishna sent him away from Dvaraka promising to would deal with the haughty children of Brahmadatta. Not so long after, Hamsa and Dibhaka went on to conduct an Rajasuya yagya, sending Janardana (a devotee of Vishnu) to Krishna to pay up or fight. In response, Krishna and Balarama set off to Shalva with their chief ministers to fight the brothers in a war that ensued. The results were not so pleasant. At least for Hansa and Dibhaka, of whom were killed by Krishna and Balarama respectively. O silly loathers of Krishna, they never learn.
Version 3
In other versions, Dimbhaka was sent to Patalaloka (sort of in the way as Bali) and they conducted a Ashvamedha yajna (100 of which that makes one eligible for Indraship) in place of the Rajasuya.

Defeating Jarasandha - Conducting Krishna Marriage
After the death of Kansa his widowed queens Asti and Prapti returned to their father Jarasandh's home and informed him that Krishna and Balarama had killed their husband Kansa. Infuriated by the news, Jarasandh at once launched a massive attack on Mathura. The people of Mathura were frightened by the strength of Jarasandh's army. Lord Krishna too fell in deep thought. Just then, divine weapons and chariots appeared from the heaven. Both the brothers took the weapons and boarded their chariots. Then they fought a fierce battle and slayed all the army of Jarasandh.

Balarama furiously caught Jarasandh and was about to kill him. But Lord Krishna stopped him. They then released Jarasandh and let him go unhurt.
Bhishmaka was the king of Vidarbha. He had five sons, the eldest of whom was Rukmi, a cruel prince. He also had a daughter called Rukmini. Rukmini, having heard of his exquisite beauty and charm, and his valiant deeds, very dearly loved Krishna. But Rukmi wanted her to marry Sisupala, the king of Chedi. To defeat Rukmi’s evil plans, Rukmini sent a messenger Sunanda to Krishna with a letter. He conveyed Rukmini’s plight to Krishna, and her earnest request to rescue her. In her letter she also explained her plan -" As part of the wedding ceremonies, I am going to the temple to offer prayers to Parvati. That would be the last opportunity for you to rescue me. If you do not come I shall put an end to my life." After reading the letter, Krishna immediately sent for his chariot and left for Vidarbha.
Meanwhile, at Vidarbha, preparations for the Princess’ wedding were in full swing. The city was decorated beautifully. Shishupala, Jarasandha and his associates, all sworn enemies of Krishna, had assembled in the capital. (Jarasandha already hates him, becasue he killed his son-in-law Kamsa). As Rukmini came out of the temple, she had been lifted up body from the ground and borne onto Krishna’s shoulder in the chariot, and the chariot rolled away, guarded by the Yadava army led by Balarama. They were gone in a flash, before any body could rezlize what happened. But Jarasandha recovered first and calling upon Shishupal, Rukmi and others charged after the fleeing couple. But Balarama blocked the enemy’s way, thus allowing Krishna and Rukmini to flee. A fierce battle followed between the two opposing forces in which the enemies were completely defeated.

Forms
The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krishna, is the fountainhead of all incarnations. Lord Balarama is His second body. They are both one and the same identity. They differ only in form. Balarama is the first bodily expansion of Krishna, and He assists in Lord Krishna's transcendental pastimes. He is the source of the entire spiritual world and is the adi-guru, the original spiritual master.
He assumes five other forms to serve Lord Krishna. He Himself helps in the pastimes of Lord Krishna, and He does the work of creation in four other forms called the catur-vyuha (four armed) forms known as
