On hearing this, Prahlad let Andhaka know that Paravati was his actual mother. Andhaka didn’t relent though Prahlad also told him that lusting after another man’s wife was an evil deed. Andhaka sent Shambarasura to Shiva to demand Parvati for him. Shiva replied that he would hand over Parvati if he could be defeated in a game of dice. Andhaka was angry and proceeded to the mountain Mandara to do battle with Shiva. He was defeated , apologised to Shiva and accepted that Parvati was his mother.
