Sri Krishna Devaraya The emperor of vizayanagra wanted to conduct a competition to the horses. so he called all his people and made an announcement that ‘I want to conduct a competition for the horses, in this competition the winner is the one who makes his horse more stronger in the next coming six months, and the winner will be awarded with 1000 gold coins. So I will provide you each one of you with one horse, and straw for six months to feed the horse’.
So He called all his people and gave them one horse each. To feed the horses He also gave them lot of straw so that the horses can eat. All the people happily took away the horses to their home, and started feeding up their horses to win the competition. Tenalirama also had taken his horse to home. He tied his horse in a small dark room which is having only one door and one window and daily in the morning he used to give it very little straw through window. The rest of the straw he used for feeding his cows, and started enjoying the milk and other milk products.
After six months, the king wanted to start competition. He sent his representatives to visit the horses and give the score for the strong horse. Every one had feeded the horses very well, So all horses are looking very strong. The judges are in confusion to decide which one is the strongest horse.
Finally one judge went to Tenalirama house to check the horse. He had a beard, which was very long. TenaliRama took him to the room where the horse was kept locked. He asked him to see through the window. The inspector tried to see through the narrow window but coundt able to see properly due to the darkness in the room. He tried to observe the horse keenly and brought his head very close to the window. Since he had a big beard his beard entered the room first through window. The horse thought that it was straw and caught the beard of the guard and started pulling. The inspector was shouting in pain and tried to pull himself out of the window. But the hungry horse started pulling his beard very strongly so that the beard completely came out. The Guard lost his beard and ran to the king with pain and said that.
Tenalirama's horse was very strong. Please give him award. The King gave TenaliRama 1000 gold coins.
