Bhadra is the sister of Shani Dev, the god of justice. Bhadra is the daughter of Surya Dev and mother Chhaya. She is of short temper and terrifying appearance. According to mythology, as soon as Bhadra was born, she ran to eat the world. She destroyed the yagnas, started creating disturbance in auspicious functions and caused pain to the whole world. In such a situation, seeing her evil nature and monstrous form, Surya Dev started worrying about how this ugly girl would get married. When she became of marriageable age, all the gods rejected Bhadra’s marriage proposal. Then Surya Dev took refuge in Brahmaji.
Brahma Ji blessed Bhadra that wherever auspicious and auspicious works are done, there will be your abode. O Bhadra, you should stay as the seventh Karan at the end of Bava, Balava, Kaulava, Taitil etc. Karanas. In this way, Brahma Ji gave a part of time to Bhadra.
