Storyline

The story of BaisakhiPoornima is of Lord Krishna and Sudama. Shri Krishna's friend Sudama was very poor. They did not even have food to eat. When the situation became very pathetic, his wife cried that he should seek the help of his friend Shri Krishna. Sudama was a proud man. He did not want to seek help from Mitra, but on the other hand he was also a devotee of Shri Krishna. In such a situation, at the behest of the wife, he went to meet Sri Krishna. On reaching there, Shri Krishna understood his situation. Instead of asking for help, Sudama started asking Shri Krishna such measures that would remove his impoverishment. He told Shri Krishna, Lord, tell me such measures which can be done to remove poverty and the welfare of human beings. Then Shri Krishna was asked to observe BaisakhiPoornima fast. Sudama did the same and after that his poorness went away.
