### Who is Padmavathi? (Not Lakshmi)
Many think Venkateswara wife is Lakshmi - Wrong.
*Venkateswara's wives:*
1. *First wife: Lakshmi* - In Vaikunta, always on his chest as Lakshmi Haram - Left him when Bhrigu Maharshi kicked his chest
2. *Second wife: Padmavathi* - Princess on earth - Daughter of King Akasha Raja - She is *incarnation of Vedavati (Sita's previous birth)*
3. *Third wife (Hidden): Bhudevi* - Mother Earth - Always at his feet
So at Tirumala, he is alone because he is waiting for Lakshmi to return. At Tiruchanur (5 KM down), Padmavathi lives separately. That is why tradition: You must see Padmavathi first at Tiruchanur, then go up to Tirumala to see Venkateswara.
### Full Love Story in Short (Write Like Story - Readers Love)
*Step 1: Why Venkateswara came to earth?*
Lakshmi left Vaikunta after Bhrigu kicked Vishnu chest. Vishnu searched for Lakshmi and came to earth as Srinivasa (Venkateswara's name before marriage). He was living in an anthill (Putta) near Tirumala, meditating.
*Step 2: How he met Padmavathi?*
One day, Akasha Raja, king of Tiruchanur, was doing yagna in his garden. He found a baby girl in lotus flower (Padma = Lotus). Named her Padmavathi. She grew up very beautiful.
One day Srinivasa was hunting, chasing elephant, came to garden where Padmavathi was with friends picking flowers. He saw her - Love at first sight. Padmavathi also saw him - Both fell in love.
*Step 3: Marriage Proposal Problem*
Srinivasa was poor (living in anthill, no palace), Padmavathi was princess. King Akasha Raja said: "How can I give my daughter to a poor man living in forest?"
Srinivasa's mother (Vakuladevi - Yashoda in previous birth) went to king and said: "My son is actually Lord Vishnu, give your daughter."
King agreed but asked for grand marriage.
*Step 4: The Famous Kubera Loan (Most Important - Your Money Keyword)*
Srinivasa needed money for marriage - Grand royal marriage with princess.
He called Kubera, the God of Wealth (Banker of Gods).
*Loan amount:* *14 lakh Ramamudra coins + Interest* - In today's value = *₹1.40 lakh crores* (Some say 14 lakhs gold coins = 1.40 crores in that time)
*Kubera condition:* "I will give loan, but you must repay till end of Kali Yuga, with interest. Till then, your devotees will help you repay by putting money in your Hundi."
Srinivasa agreed. That is why even today, devotees put money in Hundi - To help God repay Kubera loan.
*TTD still pays interest to Kubera?* Yes - Traditional ritual: Every year, TTD temple priests go to *Kubera Temple in North* and pay interest symbolically.
### Marriage Details (Add for Interest)
- *Marriage Date:* Today celebrated as *Kalyanotsavam* - Every day in Tirumala at 11 AM, priests do marriage for Lord and Padmavathi
- *Marriage Place:* Narayanavanam (40 KM from Tirupati) - Temple still there - You can visit

- *Dowry:* King Akasha Raja gave entire kingdom as dowry
After marriage, Srinivasa took Padmavathi to Tirumala hill and became *Venkateswara* (Ven = Sins, Kata = Removes, Eshwara = God - One who removes sins)
### Why This Story Gives You Money? (Traditional Belief - Add This Box)
This is why Hyderabad businessmen love this story:
- Venkateswara took loan for marriage = If you have marriage debt, home loan, business loan - Pray to him - He understands loan pain
- He still repaying = He helps those who help him - When you put money in Hundi, you are helping him repay Kubera, so he helps you repay your bank loan
- That is why after taking home loan, people go to Tirupati and put ₹1000 in Hundi - Belief: Their loan will close fast
