"I want to marry you. Will you agree?"

Karna asked the question not to his first love Devi Padmavati, but to his first crush Princess Ashabari.

She lowered her head and chewed her lower lip. Then answered him "Talk to my father. His decision is mine too."

So he went straight to her father. At first he was praising Karna for his bravery but when he heard that he wanted to marry his daughter, he with a jolt burst into anger.

"How dare you, being a Sut putro, to talk to marry my only daughter, a princess?!! Go and marry a Dasi." He told it aloud.

His ministers had started to laugh on Karna too. They felt the situation very enjoyable.

Karna stood motionless for a second. His nostril flared in anger. The same title Sut Putro!! Again and again!! He closed his eyes too tightly to cope up with this insult. Then he answered -

"He Rajan (o mighty King), you think I am unworthy of your daughter's hand for my birth. But one day you have to be ashamed of your own conservative attitude. In this same royal court. I promise you."
