Vishwakarma’s daughter. Once, when she was bathing with her friends in Naimisharanya Sudeva’s son Surathareached there and Chitrangada told her friends that he was smitten and she should offer herself to him. Her friends agreed to this. But she refused to listen to them. Vishwakarma was furious on hearing this and cursed that she would not get a husband. She fainted and didn’t wake up when her friends tried to revive her. They assumed she was dead and went to collect firewood for her final rites. Meanwhile Chitrangada woke up and not seeing anyone, jumped into the Saraswati. Saraswati transferred her to Gomati and from there she reached a jungle. There she met the sage Ritadhwaja and after hearing her story, he took pity on her, cursed that Vishwakarma would become a monkey and blessed that she would be reunited with her husband as per Vamanapurana Chapters 63, 64.
