I thought Rukmini was from Vidarbha...
-

-
Yes. She is traditionally considered the daughter of Bhishmaka who was ruler of Vidarbha. भीष्मकः कुण्डिने राजा विदर्भविषयेऽभवत्। रुक्मी तस्याभवत्पुत्रो रुक्मिणी च वरानना॥
-
Yes she ran away from Koundanyapur from Vidharbha and married into Amba devi temple in Amravati. Shri Krishna ran with her via tunnel which is still there in Amba Temple.
-
Yes. See the verse. भीष्मकः कुण्डिने राजा विदर्भविषयेऽभवत् "Bhishmaka became king in Kundina in the Kingdom of Vidarbha." Kundina = Kaundinyapur. Rukmini is often called Vaidarbhi just as Sita is often called Vaidehi.
-
Moreover, though Rukmini and Satyabhama are the main wives of Krishna in Mahabharata, it is usually in the form of Vitthala that Krishna is usually worshiped alongside Rukmini. The Vitthala cult originated primarily in Karnataka and Maharashtra.
-
In the North, Krishna is often worshiped alongside Radha and in the South, he is usually worshiped alongside Shri, Bhu, and Nila.
-
In ArunachalPradesh Rukmini is revered.Some girls are pure vegetarians. Folk songs of Rukmini are sung from time immemorial.Tales are when she eloped with Krishna they stayed in a particular Idu Mishmi village disguised,in tribal dress‘hairstyle’ fringes in front with bun behind.

Thanks Rijijuji for enriching knowledge of countrymen about our country's heritage & mythology. Lord Krishna's conquests & journey was from east to west whereas that of Lord Rama was from North to South.
-
Lord Rama"s fame is there in East also. Andamans, Thailand, Mayanmar his fame has spread . We can see number of theatrical programmes with Lord Ram and Sita as protoganists in those parts
