Jatta

In order to keep Sati away from Shiva, Prajapati Daksh arranged her marriage with Satbish, a very ugly looking man. To make Satbish handsome, he was advised by Lord Brahma to look for a sculptor named Jatta (who was in fact Lord Shiva himself).

  1. Jatta made a handsome sculpture of Satbish, thus making him handsome. 
  2. But, then Daksha asked Jatta to make him another sculpture, that of Shiva as a dwarpal, which was made by Jatta. 
But soon, Satbish understood that Sati was only meant to marry Shiva and thus refused to marry her.
