As Portia's father was a holy man and has achieved blessings from god, he was very much tensed for her daughter's marriage and hence he organised the lottery of caskets in which the suitors have to choose one casket from the three which would contain Portia's portrait, before choosing the casket the suitor have to take three oaths which says, not to tell anybody which casket he has chosen, not to marry any gírl in his life and to leave Belmont as soon as possible.

The right casket will have Portia's portrait and the suitor which will choose it will marry portia.
