Chitraketu was a King..
Chitraketu roamed over the spheres with his band of musicians blessing bhajan parties with their presence. In the course of his wanderings the party happened to pass by Mount Kailas and wishing to pay homage to Lord Siva, they alighted near the Ashram. Lord Siva with Sri Parwathy seated on his lap and embracing her with one hand was expounding the meaning of the Vedas to the assembled sages.
Chitraketu laughed loudly. "The great exemplar who should set an example is embracing Sri Parvathy in public. Even ignorant persons do so only in privacy" Lord Siva only smiled and did not react. But Sri Parvathy was enraged "Who is this person who has dared to insult Lord Siva, when venerable sages and even Hari and Brahma see nothing wrong" The Devi continued "You do not deserve to be the minstrel of God. You have too much of Rajasic guna. I curse you to be born as an asura" Though Chitraketu could curse in return, he did not do so. He meekly accepted the curse and was born as Vritra in the Homam that was being performed by Thwasta.
Shri Siva observed , "You see my dear Parvathy the greatness of the devotees of Hari. They are free from anger and all such maladies" Such was Vritras origin. No wonder he regained his former status after a comparative short relapse. ...

Chitraketu saw parvati sitting in lap of Shiva and remarked- see shiva is lust ful , talking of god and have a woman in his lap
parvati was angry and cursed him to be a demon.
chitraketu accepted, because he knew he would get moksha with this curse.
(donno how far this is correct.. i am unsure correct me pls)
