Arjun then visited many sacred waters and holy places like Vanga and Kalinga. And eventually reached the kingdom of Manipur. There he met Chitravahana - the the king of Manipur. The king had a daughter called Chitrangada. Arjun immediately fell in love with Chintrangada on seeing her and requested the king that he marry her. Arjun told the king who he was and why he was here. The king replied to Arjun "Son, you are certainly a good match for my daughter. But there is one condition. I have only a daughter and no son to become the next king. If you marry my daughter, you must stay here with her until she has a son. Neither you nor my daughter can leave the city of Manipur." Arjun agreed and wedded Chitrangada and spent the next 3 years in Manipur with her.
Eventually, Arjun and Chitrangada had a son called Babruvahana. Arjun then bid farewell to Chitrangada and king Chitravahana and left Manipur.
