The Legend of Mahabharata :-
                                                                      
                                                       The belief in this and its associated rituals goes back to the pre-Mahabharata times. Draupadi, too, is said to have observed this. Once Arjun went to the Nilgiris for penance and the rest of the Pandavas faced many problems in his absence. Draupadi, out of desperation, remembered Lord Krishna and asked for help. Lord Krishna reminded her that on an earlier occasion, when Goddess Parvati asked for Shiva’s guidance under similar circumstances, she had been advised to observe this. In some tellings of this legend, Shiva tells Parvati the story of Veervati to describe the X . Draupadi followed the instructions and observed this with all its rituals. Consequently, the Pandavas were able to overcome their problem had sought Lord.
