Her brother decided to show her a mirror with the reflection of a fire so that she could break her fast. After she grew up, her brother started searching a groom for her but he was unable to find a perfect one.
At last he had no choice but to fix her marriage with an old man and the princess did not agree with this and ran away went to the forest. She was crying badly sitting under a banyan tree then Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati appeared and asked her to go back and complete the fast of Atla Tadde, which she could not complete earlier.
