Amrapali and Emperor Shrenik

Fragrance of her beauty, her art, her intelligence and skill in dance and music spread crossing borders of her state.

Shrenik, the bhambhasara, Emperor of powerful Magadha (Presently in Bihar state in India) dynasty was attracted to her. As Vaishali was an enemy of Magadha, it was difficult for him to come and meet with her. But he found himself unable to resist from meeting this heavenly beauty of Vaishali. He came to Vaishali in a disguise and made love with Amrapali.

Emperor Shrenik offered Amrapali to make her Empress of Magadha. Amrapali denied to be her Empress because she knew that her state Vaishali would never accept it. This marriage could trigger a battle between two powerful dynasties the mighty Magadha and the brave Vaishali. Being refused Shrenika came back broken heart to his capital Rajagriha. Later on, Ajatshatru also loved and wanted to marry her. He was son of emperor Shrenik who became emperor of Magadh killing his father.

Amrapali was not mentally satisfied in spite of comfort and luxury provided by the state. She never liked to be a prostitute. She hated this life. She wanted to live a normal peaceful life.
