King Bhoja asked Mahakavi Kalidasa Upto what age a man can read? (What is the time that a man can read?) For this Kalidasa immediately replied the distance between the two breasts.

All the people in the court were surprised and they wanted the king should punish Kalidasa.

When asked by the King, Kalidasa replied "Yes what I said is correct. You have to read this in  a proper way. What I said is between the two breasts. The first time you will hold the breast when u will be a baby that is of your mother's to drink milk. The second time after your marriage. So you can read between your childhood and marriage. After marriage u will not be able to concentrate on studies because of lot of problems."

Now the king realised the real meaning of Kalidasa's words and how true it is.
