Everything that is there about Dharma (righteous/ just), Artha (wealth/ economics), kaama (lust/ desires) and moksha (salvation/ liberation) everything is there in the Bharatha text. You can find it in other books. But what is not found in this will not be found anywhere else.

Basavi Uruvi: A Forgotten Karna Sangini (Karna Series 4) by Amropali

Uruvi, a golden hearted Princess of Pukeya, tried hard to change her destiny. She did not want to be married to anyone but unwantedly she befriended with two arch enemy Arjuna and Karna. One became her brother while another her husband. She tried to reconcile both of them with their wives, Arjuna with Chitrangada and Karna with Supriya. But would this big devotee and friend of Lord Krishna be sucessful in her endeavour? With whom her own destiny was then written? Who would be her friends and foes? Would she be loved and adored by all? Why Yuddhisthir loved her as his own sister? Why Duryodhan considered her as his friend and advisor? Why had wise Bhism considered her as as his own granddaughter? Could she convince Kunti to declare Karna as her first-born? Could she stop the great blood thirsty war of Mahabharata? Or would she also perish in this great blood thirsty battle along with her husband and sons? However Uruvi was not a well known as Karna Sangini. Mostly only one Karna's wife had been depicted. Some named her as Vrushali and some Padmavati. In the Ved Vyas Mahabharata the wife of Karna was only named as Karna-Sangini. Most would tell that the story of Uruvi was just a folklore and mentioned only in the scripts of South India. So kindly remember that fact before reading my book. She was Shankar Putri and Foster daughter of Bhumi Devi or mother earth. This is my original unpublished story and purely fan fiction and imaginative. It is copyrighted by only me. Nowhere except here it was published ever. It was not taken from any serial or book. It is part of my imagination. I don't want to hurt anyone's religious beliefs, feelings or sentiments.

Journey to the Old Era (Drisana's Mahabharat #1) by Raffesia

Drisana has always felt like she's in the wrong place, wrong time. Why? That has no answer. After her parents death, adventure lover Drisana has been travelling around the world to find peace in her heart which has always been missing. But things take a drastic change when she comes to visit the place that her parents belonged to, where she was born. One moment she was in the basement of her parental house and the next she somehow tumble through a energy portal to 5157 years back in time in the Dwapar yug, badly injured, right on the hands of the legendary heroes of Mahabharat, Pandavs. What is she doing there? How she reached from Kaliyug to Dwapar yug and why? Many more things are running through her mind and all she got from the mortal disguise of Lord Narayan, Krishna is, "Tum etihas ka hissa nahi balki etihas rachne aayi ho. Apni vaggya ka racaita tum khud ho. " (You're not part of the history. Rather you have come to create the history. You're the writer of your own destiny.) *********** Familiar with the Mahabharat? Don't worry if you're not. I've added a short description of the original Mahabharat plot in the book for those. This story will follow the original mahabharat storyline but in a vastly different way with a lot of twists and events in my style. 😉 I'm aware Mahabharat holds religious sentiments for some and I do not INTEND to offend anyone. This is for entertainment purpose only. So don't get serious or offended please. And I apologise in advance if you feel hurt by any content of the book.

💜THE BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY💜- A Different Point Of View by missshruti13

What if Karna had strong friendship with Duryodhan as well as Kauravas that they believed him more than Shakuni??!🔥💜 What if Arjun fell in love at first sight for Draupadi but Draupadi chose Karna as her husband??🥺💜 What if Draupadi and Bhanumati bonded as sisters helping their husbands to be in Dharma side??😍💜 What if Pandavas and Kauravas had relationship that they didn't hate each other but don't exactly show their brotherhood to each other too??💜 What if Karn played a major role in Mahabharat opposing Shakuni in a very intelligent way saving both Pandava and Kaurava brothers???🔥🔥 Join me in the journey where there will be more imagination of mine as I want to give Karna, Draupadi, Bhanumati and Duryodhan more justice along with Pandavas. They all deserve happiness...💜💜💗💗 It will be in English mostly as I'm not well versed in Hindi but some Hindi words will be there and meaning will be provided too...💜 IT'S TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY MY IMAGINATION...AND Plagiarism is a sin. Don't copy my idea.... So, shall we go in??? Yep! Come on....💜😊

The Inseparable Princes by Ramayana_lover

Ramayana. An Indian epic that has lived through the centuries and has only grown even more in the process. An epic that shows ideal characters, many of whom we worship, and other characters from whom we learn what we shouldn't be at any cost. But one thing that has been a constant for many centuries now is the examples we give, referring to the epic. One of the most popular ones being "Be a brother like Rama." Not only is the Ramayana an enchanting tale of love and devotion, but it's also an equally magical example of brotherhood and affection. Brothers who stood with each other through thick and thin. Brothers who would readily sacrifice their life for the other. Brothers who would love the other, and support him when nobody else did. This book brings to you the Ramayana, but this time, the limelight is on the inseparable brothers. *** Disclaimer: Please do not read this book if you do not like humanization of deities. However, I can assure you that ALL relationships in this book are shown the way they're meant to be - no non-canon shipping. I can also assure you, that since I myself am a devotee of Shri Rama, that you will never have me intentionally writing anything against him, his real nature - the same goes for the others - Sita, Lakshmana, Urmila, Bharata, Mandavi, Shatrughna, Shrutakeerti, Dasharatha, the mothers... All of them will always get their due respect in this book. Secondly, I've followed the Valmiki Ramayana throughout. Some incidents may be revelations, as quite a few things are contrary to popular perception and other versions. Thank you! Fantastic cover designed by @Mochis4lifeq52627 <3

A Life I Could Never Dreamed Of by himani1411

Mahabharata. A tale of victory of Justice over injustice. A tale of sacrifices. A tale of diplomacy. The tale of the greatest war of India. The greatest epic. from my point of view. A 21st century girl. This is my version of Mahabharata so ofcourse it will differ slightly from the original epic. It's sole purpose is to show my love and creativity to my favorite epic. I don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings or sentiments. Any similarities with any other story is a mere coinsident due to based on the same Epic. PS: Please don't let yourself down at the number of chapters, once you start reading you won't notice how chapters are flying past. Give it a try. Start date:- 7th Feb 2019 End date:- 5th Dec 2020 Complete. Undergoing Editing. (It will take time because it's boring)

MAHABHARAT - TWISTED LOVE (18+) by Lekha_Acharya
