Well, I suddenly came up with a concept and write it down. I do not mean to hurt anyone's belief and feelings. Characters are based on the Ramayana but it is purely a fiction. Please do not continue to read if you are uncomfortable.

Everyone, especially Indians, thinks they know Ramayana & Mahabharata. But do you really know them? How many children do you think Dashratha had? 4? Think again. Did Ravana really abduct Sita because of his lust for her? Did Rama really stand any chance against Ravana in battle? Did the Pandavas stand a chance against the Kauravas? Everyone knows the main story of Ramayana & Mahabharata. But what about the stories behind the stories? What about all those unsung heroes which, while being unknown, play a tremendous role in the overall plots of Ramayana and Mahabharata. Join Aniket, a lively 16-year-old boy, as he decides to spend his entire summer vacation with Anand, his 83-year-old grandfather who has been diagnosed with stage four liver cancer and has been declared terminally ill with only a few months to live. With time running out and not knowing which moment might be his last, his grandfather decides to spend the last few months of his life with his beloved grandson. As with all grandchildren, when Aniket requests his grandfather to tell him stories from Ramayana and Mahabharata, it is a request his grandfather can't refuse. Join Aniket and Anand on a journey as they discuss politics, dharma, right, wrong, circumstances, deception, strategy, etc. in these final months of Anand's life.

Ancient India. Approximately 7 thousand years ago. The Kingdom of Kosala. A dutiful crown prince exiled from his kingdom for fourteen years. A loving wife who follows him, and is captured. A demon king who threatens the entire mortal population of the world. Ram, the eldest of the four princes of Ayodhya, is known to be righteous, good, and an eternal follower of justice and law. Beloved by all in his home state of Kosala and beyond, he defeats thousands of demons even in his teenage years, fabled as an undefeatable, almost Godly hero. His marries the beautiful Sita, and is all set to be crowned king. Then, the unthinkable happens. He's sentenced to 14 years of exile. Followed by his loyal wife and a brother who would sacrifice his life for him, Ram makes his way into the Chitrakut forest near his home city, and makes a life there killing demons, gathering berries, and blissfully awaiting for his exile to finish. When his wife is kidnapped and kept prisoner in the land of Lanka by a lustful demon king named Ravan whose devilish exploits litter the pages of books and haunt children's nightmares, Ram has to follow a track, make allies, and find friends in the world of terror. Ram has to wage a war against a king who has never lost. Ram has to reclaim his wife and be crowned the king of Ayodhya without losing himself. This tale navigates a life before exile, a life throughout exile, and a life after the exile which redefined the word 'hardship', tested relationships, lives, and strength. This is the story of the Ramayan. (Warning-This story is very funny and really not as serious as the description)

Urmila grew up hearing the story of her aunt Sulochana from her mother Sunaina. She knew her mother and aunt Sulochana were born from Vasuki's tears when Maa Parvati unknowingly tied Vasuki tightly to Shiva's neck. Since both Parvati and Vasuki fought for the children Shiva decided to give one child to Parvati and another to Vasuki. Her mother was given to Parvati who then gave her to Devi Narmada to raise. Sulochana had grown up in Naglok and had become the bride of Meghnadh the formidable and divine prince of Lanka. Urmila as a child always wished to visit Lanka and meet her aunt. Sulochana also yearned to meet her nieces Sita and Urmila whose childhood pictures she had seen from the travellers from Mithila. But the life in Lanka and her love for her beloved husband didn't allow her that as worshipping Vishnu was banned in Lanka and King Janak was a devotee of Vishnu and it was said that the elder daughter of Janak Sita was Mahalakshmi herself. Little did Urmila and Sulochana knew their paths will cross in the most unexpected way. Instead of being the loving aunt and niece they stood on two sides in the epic battle between their respective husbands Meghnadh and Lakshman. Their love, their devotion and their chastity played the most important role in the outcome of that decisive battle. The story traces the journey of Urmila and Sulochana and how the duty bound and chaste daughter of Janaka overcame the divine and chaste power of the princess of Naglok who is also her aunt. The story got #24 in #womanpower on 09/04/2021 PS: The story is based on the folklore Sunaina and Sulochana were born from Vasuki's tears. Cover Credits: Proteeti from Indiaforums.

A humble attempt to better understand Shrutakirti, the youngest of the four Maithili sisters. She is one character from the Ramayana who remained behind the curtains for most of the show. Note: Since so less information is available on her, I will probably be forced to rely only on my imagination for the most part. I hope readers will forgive those deviations from the available texts!

Ramayana It's not just a word but a world of it's own. War, pain, bloodshed, betrayal, wait of years, revenge, ego, dharma, agony and what not. Ramayan is always associated with these things. But ramayan is a bit more than that. It's base is LOVE But love doesn't grow in one day. It's a bud that takes years to bloom. We know about the flowers but not about the buds. Let's peep into the buds of Ramayan. Raghili is a combination of two words. Raghav and Maithili. Raghav are the descendants of raghu (the four princes of ayodhya) Maithili are the princess of Mithila. Raghili is the union of these souls, the budding of immature buds into graceful blooming flowers. Raghili is the journey of love. This is purely a work of fiction and not meant to hurt anyone's religious sentiments. I will take creative liberty. Hope you like my maiden work. 🏆 1st Runner up at The Ramayana Awards 🏆 2nd Runner up at The Self Made Awards 🏆 2nd Runner up at The Debonair Accord 🏆 2nd Runner up at The Jaya Awards 🏆Best Ramayana Plot at The Indian Mythology Awards 🏆2nd Runner Up at The MythoMagical Awards 🏆1st runner up at the Morpankh Awards 2.0
