Śrīla Prabhupāda writes, "The great sage Nārada immediately carried the news to the Yadu dynasty that Sāmba was arrested and told them the whole story. The members of the Yadu dynasty became very angry at Sāmba's being arrested, and improperly so by six warriors. Now with the permission of the head of the Yadu dynasty's King, Ugrasena, they prepared to attack the capital city of the Kuru dynasty."
