The young Brahmin asked, "Is it true that your daughter has all the good qualities and pleasing looks?"
The old Brahmin answered, "Haan! More than that, she is Sundara Vati and Padma Vati!"
"But can she cook and keep house?" asked the young man.
"Oh yes, she is Dharma Vati!" answered the old man.
"Now, can she sew?" asked the young man.
"Oh yes, she can not only sew, but she is Kala Vati!" answered the old man.
"What about her education?" asked the young man.
"She is Vidya Vati!" answered the old man.
"And the Vedas?" asked the young man.
"Oh yes, she is Veda Vati!" answered the old man.
The young man is very happy to find the perfect bride and gets married to her.
Two days later, he comes back with his newly married bride in town. The old Brahmin is surprised. He asks, "What happened, my son? Why do you look so upset?"
The young man says, "Well sir, you told me that your daughter is already a Sundara Vati, Padma Vati, Dharma Vati, Kala Vati, Vidya Vati, and a Veda Vati?"
"Yes, my son - I certainly did," replies the old man.
"But Sir - you forgot to tell me that she is also already a 'Garbha Vati'.
