History
As per the Indian history, the previous adaptations of prostitutes were
known as “Devadasi” who used to contribute their entire life to the
devotion of Lord Krishna. Some religious convictions resolve that the
Devadasis consider the Gods as their husbands and in this manner can’t
wed other human men. They were later called as “Nagarvadhu” or the
“Brides of the town” and were called upon by the royals and the rich to
dance and sing.
