The girl’s name was Roopmati. He told them about the marriage proposal of Gandharvasen. The parents were very happy to hear about the marriage proposal. All in all, their daughter would be married to a wealthy man. Roopmati was also happy to get the proposal of marriage from Gandharvasen. In reality, she herself had loved him since long, but never expressed her thoughts thinking that Gandharvasen’s position in the society was much higher than that of her own. A happy Dev Datta went and told Gandharvasen everything. Gandharvasen was ecstatic. On an auspicious day, Roopmati was married to Gandharvasen. He thought of himself to be the luckiest man on the earth. Time flew by. It was more than a month since they got married. Everything was going well when suddenly, one day, Gandharvasen remembered the pledge he had made before the goddess of sacrificing his head in case he was married to Roopmati within a month.
