Tilottama: Apsaras at the ball game by Raja Ravi Varma c.1900s
.
.
Tilottama was Lord Indra's renowned Apsaras - A Mythical Heavenly Courtesan She was sent by Indra to earth for creating discord between the two brothers Sunda & Upsunda, whose fraternal love was so strong, together they were so powerful that Indra feared they might depose him any moment...
.
Tilottama played her appointed part very well, She approached them & each brother fell for her Charm claiming her for his own & alas their bonding broke, they started fighting and at last they ended up killing each other.....Tilottama went back to Indra loga with the news of her success in completing the given job..
