She had failed. Dharmaraj had won, taking Satyavan, her dear husband, with him. But Savitri's not about to lose the man she loves without a fight. Aided by Suman, a sweet but blissfully ignorant disciple of Sage Agastya, Savitri makes the perilous journey to Naraka to retrieve Satyavan's soul. But the path to the land of the dead is not an easy one. Filled with fiery gods, ravenous rakshasas, and cunning carnivores, Savitri is risking her life to save Satyavan. Will she be able to rescue him before he's gone forever? Or will she not only lose him, but herself, in the process?
