No matter how many books you read, you can never complete Mahabharatha, the greatest epic of all times. Each time you read it, new thoughts will pop up and new things will make sense. In the incredible maze of this never ending story, nothing is pure and no one is sinned. Evil is justified and benevolence is brushed aside, all for greater good.
Men and women of this legendary story, caught in the webs of their own words and actions, spinned the great wheels of fate and perished in the grand process to gift us this unmatchable literary gem.
But the unyielding master of lives, TIME let some of those characters to live long after their deaths in our imagination.
Though thousand characters managed to live to tell this magnificent tale, the spotlight is reserved to only few and the mortals won't shut up hailing and criticising them until the very end of time.
I am one among such mortals who chose to reiterate this giant epic from the peephole view of a dreamy young girl, enchanting princess, sidelined empress and forgotten human being - Bhanumati, the proud wife of a fallen would-have-been king.

Falling In Love - Dwaparyug
In a world where time bends and destiny weaves its own mysterious patterns, eight sisters from Kalyug - modern, spirited, curious - find themselves unexpectedly thrown back into the ancient and divine Era of Dwaparyug, the time of the Mahabharata. As they step into the grand courts of Hastinapur, the sacred lands of Kurukshetra, and the majestic halls of Indraprastha, they come face to face with legends they had only read about in scriptures: the valiant Pandavas, the wise Krishna, the mighty Bhishma, the fierce Karna, and the misunderstood Duryodhan. But this is not the Mahabharata you know. What if one of these sisters is none other than Mahalakshmi herself, incarnated without her own knowledge, drawn by cosmic design to restore the balance of fate? What if the infamous Dyut Sabha (the game of dice) still happened, but Duryodhan was not the mastermind behind it - what if he, too, was a noble-hearted prince, caught in the web of palace politics? What if Karna, instead of being torn between loyalty and dharma, stood firmly as a royalist, adopted by bhishma & the only way to tie pandav & kaurav In this twist of imagination, love blooms across time, as the sisters' modern hearts connect with the ancient souls of the epic's heroes. Bonds of love, respect, rivalry, and sacrifice are tested across centuries. This story is purely a work of fiction, a heartfelt tribute and imaginative reweaving of the epic Mahabharata. No disrespect is intended toward the original scripture, its divine characters, or the beliefs surrounding them. If you're sensitive to fictional reinterpretations, you may kindly choose to skip this. For those ready to dive into the depths of this reimagined tale, I invite you: step into the ocean of this book and discover a Mahabharata where fate itself gets a second chance.

A Life I Could Never Dreamed Of
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.

Start date:- 7th Feb 2019 End date:- 5th Dec 2020 Complete. Undergoing Editing. (It will take time because it's boring)Complete
Jasmine Dreams
Bhanumati's tale spoken like a memoir to her children. To remind them that, despite what the world says, their father was a good man, somewhere in him, he was a good man. The forgotten queen of Mahabharatha. Duryodhana's wife. The tragedy of being the villain's love. ******** The world will call your father the villain, and I will not stop them. Let them. The stories are not false, and I have no wish to cleanse his sins with my tears. But this my children, I write this for you to know that the man Ved Vyaasa wrote of was not the man I loved. My life has been endlessly filled with jasmines, beautiful, fragrant and fated to wilt.
