As Goddess Lakshmi begins to narrate the tale of Devi Savitri, she talks about the struggles King Ashwapati and Queen Maalavi went through to have a child. Ultimately, when Devi Gayatri was impressed with their devotion, she decided to bless them with a baby girl. As time went by, Savitri grew up to be a woman of essence, values and intellect. While her parents were troubled with the thought of finding the right partner for her, Savitri took it upon herself to find a fitting companion.
