Her name was Menaka.She was a beauti with brain.She was a reputed dancer in the heaven.Vishwamitra, one of the most respected Rishi (sages) in ancient India, frightened the gods in heaven and even tried to create another heaven- Indra, frightened by his powers, sent Menaka from heaven to earth to lure him and break his meditation. Menaka succeeded in the task which was handed over to her by Indra. And She succeeded in breaking the meditation of Vishwamitra. And Both of them are loved each other  and  from their relationship a baby was born who later grew in the Rishi Kanva's Ashram and came to be called Shakuntala. Once the King of Puru dynesty was come to hunting in the Jungle ,then he saw the the Beautiful lady who was Shakuntala.Later Shakuntala falls in love with King Dushyanta and gives birth to a child called Bharata after whom India was first named. When Vishwamitra realized that he had been traped in the conspiracy of  Indra( Heaven King), he was enraged.
