Saiyaara: The Heart Remembers
I loved watching their story unfold over three hours. But there was still something there, a quiet feeling that I hadn't seen enough. Not because I didn't have enough, but because I wanted more. More about how they slowly fell in love. More times when they were quiet, talked, and showed how close they were. That's why I started writing: to explore the depths I thought were still hidden beneath the surface. This fan fiction is just me following that feeling and thinking about what might have happened that we don't see on screen.
Radheya-Priya Vrushali Padmavati: Soul-mate of a Surya Putra (Karna Series 2)
This is the untold story of a wife of one of the most promising and remarkable archer of Mahabharata. Karna. This girl loved him unconditionally from the very bottom of her heart and was witness of his endless pain, suffering, dilemma and agony to prove himself. She was a very simple maid who became a queen by her own merit. She loved a man whose own heart was already broken by death of his lover and she warmed his heart. She saw his pain, she had supported him, she had suffered for him, but she felt ignored by the coming of two other wives of him. However she loved them both as her own baby sisters and both of them also respected her with their whole heart. She suffered tremendously by his avoidance and then falling one after another for two other beautiful wives. But she did not try to complain. She helped him. She suffered by loosing her nine sons one after another and then by her husband Karna and her two baby sisters Supriya and Uruvi. What if she was an immortal being as the Manas Kanya of Brahma Dev?!! How could she cope up with the pain and endless agony of loosing her children one after another?!! From her only son Vrishasen to Supriya Putra her dearest Vrishaketu and Uruvi Kanya her beloved Padmaja?!! She is daughter of Brahma Dev in two previous births. So She is Brahma Dev Manas Putri too like Devi Supriya and Devi Ganga. She is known as Brahma Putri Vrushali in her previous birth as the wife of estranged Gandarv Prince Biswa Bhanu (previous life of Karna). It is my purely fan fiction story based on the epic Mahabharata. I don't want to hurt anyone's religious sentiments or believes. Even I don't want to change the course of entire Mahabharata. I follow the Bengali version of Mahabharata by Kashiram Das. The pictures were taken from the public domains. Images courtesy: Pinterest, Google Chrome and YouTube.Complete
