Jai Jai ShriGokulesh,
dattubhai after a long time to hear from u. thanks, to what i think that shribrahmaji is the creater of the earth, so for 4 directions aapshri had four heads. Sorry for the vedas, but creator of Vedas is Brahma not Brahmaji, sorry if i m mistaken, i may be wrong, do correct me.
Jai Jai ShriGokulesh Parivaar, Baroda

Jai Shree Krishna to all
The acquiring of Brahma's heads makes for an interesting legend. When Brahma was creating the universe, he made a female deity known as Shatarupa (one with a hundred beautiful forms). Brahma was immediately infatuated. Shatarupa moved in various directions to avoid the gaze of Brahma. But wherever she went, Brahma developed a head. Thus, Brahma developed five heads, one on each side and one above the others. In order to control Brahma, Shiva cut off the top head. Also, Shiva felt that Shatarupa was Brahma's daughter, being created by him. Therefore, Shiva determined, it was wrong for Brahma to become obsessed with her. He directed that there be no proper worship in India for the "unholy" Brahma. Thus, only Vishnu and Shiva continue to be worshipped, while Brahma is almost totally ignored. Ever since the incident, Brahma has been reciting the four Vedas in his attempt at repentance.
This I got from the net. So please give your comments.

Jai Shree Krishna
Well the question itself occured to me when i was browsing on the net. The answer i found was this...
With a desire of creating the universe, Brahma began his penance contemplating on Savitri in his heart. During the penance, his own body divided into two parts- half-masculine and half- feminine. The female part later on became popular as Saraswati Shatrupa. Savitri, Gayatri and Brahmani are other names of Shatrupa. But Brahma got so engrossed in his penance that he did not realise the division of his body and birth of Savitri. Though she was his daughter, yet Brahma fell in love with her enchanting beauty. Now Brahma had nothing else to do except looking at the pretty face of Savitri. Thereafter, bowing her head, Savitri greeted Brahma and began to circumambulate him. Still Brahma kept on looking at her. When Savitri reached Brahma’s right hand side, a head appeared on his torso and looked at Savitri’s face. When Savitri reached Brahma’s backside, one more head appeared that looked backward. When Savitri reached Brahma’s left hand side, the fourth head appeared in that direction on Brahma’s torso. Thus Brahma got four heads but because he had cultivated lustrous feelings for his daughter hence the results of his penance were destroyed.
