Vakula Devi travelled from her hermitage to approach Akasha Raja with her proposal of marriage between Srinivasa and Padmavathi. In the meantime, the restless deity came to the city in the disguise of a fortune-teller. Princess Padmavathi also fell in love with Srinivasa and fell ill after returning to the palace. Unable to diagnose the cause of her sickness, the maids invited the fortune-teller into the palace to foretell the future of the princess. When the fortune-teller revealed that Padmavathi was born to marry Vishnu in his current avatar as Srinivasa, she recovered. As the king heard this news, Vakula announced herself to the king and asked for his daughter's hand in marriage to her son, Srinivasa. The overjoyed king agreed and his advisor Brihaspati wrote the invitation for the wedding between the two deities.<ref>{{cite book | title = Warp and Weft |first=Vinay |last=Jalla | publisher = Booktango | date = 13 May 2013  | isbn = 9781468930504 | url =https://books.google.com/books?id=Zb5ynoX1C2EC&dq=venkateswara+padmavathi&pg=PT300 |section=Venkateswara Padmavathi}}</ref>
