Description | Jasma Odhan is a female love legend famous in Rajasthan and Gujarat. Jasma Odhan and her husband Ratanlal belonged to the land-owning class. Jasma was called as Jasmarani -the princes of a place called Tambavati and Ratanlal was a landlord of Surat Khamaich. Ratanlal was fond of hunting and official works. Hence he was not able to give time to Jasmarani. Later on they adopted the “Odh” work in which men and wives work together on sand fields. Jasma’s legendary beauty was a talk of the town. The king of Jeetnagar , infatuated with her beauty, wanted to abduct and marry her. However, he failed to do so as Jasma chose to remain true to her only love-her husband. |
