Goddess Parvathi was upset by this and blindfolded Lord Shiva Playfully. This had a very adverse effect on earth, the light on earth was gone and all the living creatures in the universe were dead and frozen. The gods and goddesses in the heaven were worried that the universe could be destroyed and approached Lord Shiva.
