Furious that he had been 'sold', Chanesar divorces Lilan, who has to undergo a long process of purification to once more be acceptable in her husband's eyes.
The other six tales are Umar Marvi, Sassui Punnhun, Sohni Mehar, Noori Jam Tamachi, Sorath Rai Diyach and Momal Rano.
Raja Chanesar was a well-known ruler of the Soomra dynasty, who ruled Deval Kot, an ancient city of Sindh near Thatta, Pakistan.
One day her friend Jamni (Utmadi's sister) teased Kaunru about her attitude, saying she was behaving as if she would be the queen of Chanesar.
When Jakhiro spoke to Chanesar about Kaunru, the king lost his temper and told him that he should not talk like that in future.
She told her that instead of using lanterns and lamps she used to light her palace with ‘Naulakha Har’ (a necklace worth 900,000 rupees).
Lilan tried to apologize, cried and begged but Chanesar refused to listen to her, saying that she had preferred jewellery to him and that he did not love her any more.
The minister approached Lilan who intervened but asked him to bring Chanesar to his wedding, to which he happily agreed.
The story of Lilan Chanesar was loosely adapted into a television series named Mohabbat Tujhe Alvida which premiered on Hum TV in June 2019.
It stars Sonya Hussain, Zahid Ahmed and Mansha Pasha in lead roles.
Earlier, it was said that the show is a copy of Bollywood movie Judaai[2] but Pasha denied and said that it is based on the folk tale of Lilan Chanesar.
