2) Marriage. Sāmba married Lakṣaṇā the beautiful daughter of Duryodhana. Hearing about the Svayaṃvara marriage of Lakṣaṇā, Sāmba went to Hastināpura and took her by force from the various Kings who were present there. Duryodhana and the others captured him. This news reached Dvārakā through Nārada. Śrī Kṛṣṇa and Balabhadrārāma went to Hastināpura and rescued Sāmba and took the bride and the bridegroom to Dvārakā. Ten sons beginning with Sumitra were born to Sāmba by his wife Lakṣaṇā. (Bhāgavata, Skandha 10).
