The most beautiful nymph of Indra is named Tilottama - One of the many nymphs of Indra is named Tilottama and is named due to her beauty. It is said that there is a very interesting story behind the birth of this amazing  Apsara. There are two incidents in the stories in the Puranas that explain why Tilottama was born and these two stories come together and fulfil the goal for which she was born. Tilottama was one of the most beautiful nymphs of heaven and in our Puranas, a nymph named Tilottama is mentioned in many places. At the same time, it is said about Tilottama in the scriptures that for the creation of Tilottama, Lord Brahma had absorbed the beauty of the world for a whole lot of Sesamum (Til), hence she named 'Tilottama' and she was born from the Havanakund of Brahma.

Along with this, this Tilottama was the daughter of Baand due to the curse of Durvasa Rishi and in the month of Magha, she stays on the chariot of the sun. According to the second belief, Tilottama lives as the mistress of the chariot of the Sun along with the other seven Saurganas in the Ashwin month (Magha according to Vayu Purana). She was also cursed by Ashtavakra. It is said that a demon named Nikumbha was born in the dynasty of Hiranyakashyap, who had two sons named Sunda, Upsund. With the desire of Vishwavijaya, the Sund and Upsund started doing penance on Vindhyachal mountain, which pleased Brahma. Then both of them asked for the boon of immortality, but Brahmaji refused to give such a boon. At the same time, the two brothers thought that they have a lot of mutual love and they can never fight among themselves.

That is why they asked for a boon that they should not fear death in Trilok except for each other. After receiving the boon, the world was stricken by the atrocities of Sunda and Upsund. Then only to get rid of the injustice of these two brothers, Lord Brahma requested Vishwakarma to create a divine beauty. At the same time, Vishwakarma took the beauty of all the three worlds with sesame seeds and created this beautiful beauty as an indescribable beauty statue. On seeing the beauty ofTilottama, they started fighting among themselves to get her and were killed at the hands of each other. Once in pride of beauty, Tilottama insulted Maharishi Vishwamitra. Enraged by this, the sage cursed her of becoming a devil. This curse led her to become Vanasur's daughter Usha. Usha began to like Bhagavan Sri Krishna's son Pradyumna and took him to her palace one night while sleeping. Later she was married to Pradyuman.
