Once upon a time, in a small village, lived a boy named Sudama. He was very poor, and his family struggled to have enough food to eat. Sudama was a good friend of Lord Krishna, who was kind-hearted and loved by everyone in the village.
One day, Sudama's mother asked him to go to Lord Krishna and seek some help. Sudama hesitated because he felt embarrassed to ask for help. However, he gathered his courage, packed a small bag of rice as a gift, and set off on his journey to meet Lord Krishna.
When Sudama reached Lord Krishna's palace, he was amazed by its grandeur. Nervously, he went inside and greeted Lord Krishna. Lord Krishna warmly embraced Sudama and made him feel at ease. Sudama shyly presented the bag of rice as a gift.
Lord Krishna happily accepted the humble gift with great joy. Sudama felt overwhelmed by Lord Krishna's love and kindness. After some time, Sudama bid farewell, feeling grateful for the warm hospitality he received from Lord Krishna.
As Sudama started his journey back to the village, he couldn't believe his eyes. His humble hut was transformed into a beautiful house. Sudama and his family were now blessed with prosperity and never faced poverty again.
