                About 200 – 300 years ago there was a dancer named Kulwantini. She was also called Kalavantini. She adored her art and loved dancing.

              Kulwantini used to roam from village to village demonstrating her dancing skills and earning her living from the money earned from it. People of that time did not have any entertainment facilities like mobile, internet, cinema, TV, WhatsApp, or YouTube. Therefore, people used to gather in large numbers to watch dance and drama performances. Thousands of people used to gather to watch the dance performance of Kulwantini. Along with her dance, the praise of her beauty was spread in all directions.

             The praise of Kulwantini’s beauty even reached the ears of a king. He then invites her to his palace for a dance performance. On the invitation of the king, Kulwantini goes to the palace and demonstrates her dancing skills. Everyone praises her dancing skills. But the king gets fascinated by the beauty of Kulwantini. He goes crazy with her beauty. Kulwantini was full of beauty and an unmarried young lady. Seeing her flying hair, tall height, long nose, bowl-like eyes, innocent face, hanging waist, sweet smile on red lips, softness like butter, milky body color, and half-closed chest, the king’s mind goes out of control. The king requests her to marry him. But Kulwantini politely rejects his marriage proposal and leaves his palace.

              The king completely went mad for the beauty of Kulwantini. He follows her. He blocks her way and tortures her to marry him. Then Kulwantini uses her brain and makes a maze by putting together all the small and big stones lying there.
