- Devavrata was named the crown prince of Hastinapur. Later during the hunting trip, Shantanu Maharaja fell in love with Mata Satyavati.

- Mata Satyavati's Father laid condition that he will give consent for their Marriage only if the Son of Mata Satyavati be made the heir of Hastinapur Kingdom

- Shantanu Maharaja didn't accept the condition and was filled with sorrow. Devavrata seeing the sadness of his Father Shantanu Maharaja, enquired the reason and went to Mata Satyavati's Father

- Devarata gave consent to the condition of Mata Satyavati's Father and said he will not become King and the son of Mata Saryavati will be heir of Hastinapur Kingdom

- When Mata Satyavatis Father raised doubt that the heir of Devavrata might lay claim to become Future King, Gangaputra said that he will not marry and took a vow of lifelong Brahmacharya. From then on Devavrata was called as 'Bhishm'

- Shantanu Maharaja on knowing the vow of his Son, gave a boon to Gangaputra that death will approach Bhishm only when he wishes to die.
