Under what circumstances was Atjuna grieved?

When Atjuna saw his kinsmen on both the sides and thought that they would be massacred, he was overpowered by infatuation and was grieved.

Why did Arjuna see his kinsmen on both the sides?

Lord Krsna placed the chariot between the two armies and told Arjuna to behold the war-minded Kurus. Then Arjuna saw his kinsmen.

Why did Lord Krsna tell him to behold the Kurus in both the armies?

Ile said so because Arjuna had already said, "O Acyuta (one who does not deviate from His divine glory), place my chariot between the two armies so that I may observe the war-minded warriors with whom I have to wage the war."

Why did Arjuna say so?

Arjuna heard the sound of the trumpets, drums and was filled with enthusiasm, so he requested Lord Krsna to place the chariot between the two armies.

Why did the conchs blare forth?

When the Field-Marshal Bhisma of the Kaurava army, roaring like a lion, blew his conch, the drums of both the parties blared forth.
