According to the Adi Parva of the epic Mahabharata, Rambha and her apsaras sisters Alambusha, Mishrakeshi, Vidhyutparna, Tilottama, Aruna, Rakshita, Manorama, Subahu, Keshini, Surata and Suraja are the daughters of the sage Kashyapa and his wife Pradha.[1] In the Bhagavata Purana, the name of the mother of the Apsaras is Muni.
In some Puranic scriptures, a varying account is found, according to which Rambha and other apsaras emerged from Kshira Sagara (the ocean of milk) during Samudra Manthana (the churning of the ocean)
