Will Altadighi come back to life?

According to folklore, King Vishwanath dug a lake to address the people’s drinking water problem, prompted by his queen’s dream. The queen’s stipulation was that the lake should be dug as far as she could walk barefoot. When the queen continued walking over a mile, the king’s ministers intervened fearing a near impossible lake digging project. They stopped her by sprinkling alta (red dye) on her feet, claiming she was bleeding.
