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.
