A BRIGHT SON TO JAMBUVATE
INSTEAD OF SATYABHAMA Once, Satyabhama was very sad. Krishnajee aksed the cause of her sadness. She replied that, she too wanted a son like Pradyumna. So, Krishnajee did the Attham Tap (fast for three days) and worshiped Harinagameshi diety. The diety appeared before him as he was pleased with his penance and asked the cause of remembering him. Krishnajee demanded another son like Pradyumna..

The diety gave Krishnajee a necklace saying that, the woman who would wear the necklace will have a son like Pradyumna. Krishnajee wanted to give the necklace to Satyabhama, but somehow, Pradyumna came to know about the necklace. With the help of Pragnapti skill, he made Rukmani's friend Jambuvati like Satyabhama and sent her to Krishnajee's palace at night. Krishnajee thinking her to be Satyabhama gave that necklace to her. Later, when true Satyabhama came to him, he was surprised. But the person who is passionate never feels contented and so Krishnajee satisfied Satyabhama too. At that moment, Pradyumna produced a terrible sound of drums. Hearing it, Krishnajee told her that, due to the sound of the drums, her son would be a coward and short tempered. In the morning, seeing the necklace in Jambuvati's neck, Krishnajee was surprised and tried to solve the puzzle. He came to know that, it was Pradyumna's trick and praised him. Krishnajee took the trouble for Satyabhama but Jambuvati was rewarded. The fate is certainly destined.
