KB 10.86.6
While eating at the home of Balarāmajī, Arjuna was simply looking at beautiful Subhadrā, who was very enchanting to great heroes and kings. Out of love for her, Arjuna’s eyes brightened, and he looked at her with glittering eyes. Arjuna decided that somehow or other he would achieve Subhadrā as his wife, and his mind became agitated on account of this strong desire.
Purport (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
Arjuna saw the maiden, attractive even to men of controlled senses (dhira manoharam). In some texts "vira manoharam" is seen. In that case it means, "attractive to warriors."
Purport (Jiva Goswami)
Mahatīm means she was mature. She was attractive to heroes. Another version has dhīra instead of vīra. She was attractive even to persons who were in control of their passions such as Arjuna. He became absorbed in thinking of her.
