What was wrong with princess Tara?


The King Raj Singh, looked disappointed when he pays the bride price and sees Tara for the first time. Tara is darker than Maya, who they describe as having skin the colour of wheat. I have heard that fairer skin tones are favored???

Was Tara homely? I am not referring to the actress but the character of "Tara".

I can't speak on the issue of skin color (it could be related, though), but while Tara was lovely, Maya was considered a knockout.

She was also more sensual and uninhibited, which was why Rasa Devi said that Maya had the capability to be a great courtesan. It even showed in her dancing.

Thank you. Maya had "something"; enough to make Biki want to marry her and make her royal, despite their caste system.
