Background of the character
Abolakarā is the servant of a learned person (named as Sānta, the master), who takes Abolakara wherever he goes with him. During the day time they travel, and after the dusk 'Sānta' asks 'Abola' to stop with a saying,
- ପକା କମଳ ପୋତ ଛତା, ଶୁଣ ଅବୋଲକରା କହୁଛି କଥା ॥ (pakā kamaḷa pōta chatā, śuṇa abōlakarā kahuchi kathā)
Translation: Hey dear Abolakara! spread the blanket on the ground, and cover it with the umbrella. Come here and I will tell you stories.
Abolakara takes care of Sānta and in return, he tells him stories. These stories were titled as "Abolakarā Kāhāṅi".

English Translation - In the southern regions, there was a kingdom called Sindhu. Its ruler was a king named Birabahu. He had two queens. The older queen was called Premasila, the younger Kanakamanjari. The younger queen was very beautiful, and the king doted on her. He did not care for the older queen at all. It happened that after a while, the older queen gave birth to a son. Learning of this, the younger queen thought to herself, "She has borne a son who will rule someday. The first chance the king gets he will probably banish me from the kingdom. What am I going to do now?"[3][4]
