As soon as she came of age she started getting marriage proposals from princes of different provinces. There also lived a Tantrik, who fell in love with the princess. He name was Singhia. Knowing he could not win the princess's favor nor marry her, he devised a plan to get her attracted to him. When he saw the princess's maid buying oil for the princess, he delighted the oil so that the princess would quit herself to him.

But the princess saw him doing it and poured the oil on the ground. As the oil touched the ground, a boulder emerged from the place and crushed Singhia.
