Sulochana's Answer
Devadasis are originally young girls who were supposed to be married and dedicated to gods (devas) in certain temples . They used to take care of temples , worshipped god and practiced dance to perform in front of the gods .Originally they were in very respected position . But later on they were treated as prostitutes , because with the so called colonial reforms there were no kings to support and patronise them .
