Devaiyanai

Goddess Devaiyanai is the daughter of God Indra, who assigned his white elephant Airavata or Airavatham, to take care of the baby. The elephant brought up the girl child with care and affection, and therefore she was named Deivayanai (Tamil-the divine one brought by the elephant).

The Goddess in her previous birth was Amritavalli, the daughter of Maha Vishnu. She along with her sibling Sundaravalli, undertook severe penance to become the consort of Lord Murugan. The Lord pleased by their devotion, appeared before them and gave the boon of marriage in their next birth.


Lord Murugan restored the Kingdom of Heaven to Lord Indra, and gifted the discus to Lord Vishnu. Indra requested Him to marry his daughter Deivayanai. Murugan consented and the wedding took place in a celestial manner at Thirupparamkunram Murugan Temple, which is also one of the Arupadaiveedu. The wedding is celebrated as the festival of Panguni Uthram in South India.
Goddess Deivayanai represents 'Kriya Shakthi' or the "Power of Actions".

VALLI
Goddess Valli is the daughter of Nambi Raj (Nambirajan), the King of a Mountain tribe. Valli in her previous birth was the daughter of Lord Vishnu and did several penance in her previous birth to become to wife of Subramanya. Goddess Valli depicts the "Ichha Shakti" or "Power of Aspirations". The wedding of Valli to Lord Subramanya is called "Valli Kalyanam". It is said that after Valli Kalyanam Lord Muruga and Goddess Valli moved to Tiruthani Murugan Temple, one of the Arupadaiveedu of Muruga, located at Tiruttani, 50 km north of Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Valli Kalyanam is celebrated as an annual festival in all Lord Subramanya Temples on the Vaikasi Visakam day.

I too am hoping that they show that. But if they do, they can't credibly show the story where Kartikeya has his race w/ Ganesh on who can circle the universe faster, and Ganesh just goes around his parents and claims victory. B'cos that story happened in the backdrop of each promising to remain a bachelor if he lost. So will they show Ganesh single for the rest of his life?

They should import the bahus to Parvati's household and show the saas-bahu dynamics for both Devasena and Siddhi/Riddhi 😈😆

But in today's episode, they introduced Devasena as one of Indra's apsaras, not as his daughter. That's such a let-down - I was hoping for her to be his daughter, and Kartikeya stealing her - since they can't show Indra hand her over in gratitude for what Kartikeya did for him. Now, Kartikeya can marry her if they want, but that would be of no consequence to Indra.

Jayvenk, I believe that she described Devasena & Valli's stories in the D&D thread.
