Rama's Ring by Amar Chitra Katha

₹170

Over the centuries, the two greatest Indian epics, Ramayana and Mahabharata, have been written in different Indian languages to enable them to reach a wider audience. Poets like Tulsidas, Kamban and Krittibas Ojha have all penned down their own versions of these stories in the common language of their regions. The tribal communities also had their own versions in the form of songs and plays that their people could connect to. These versions of Indian epics are a part of our rich Indian heritage which should to be preserved and promoted. In this special collection entitled Rama's Ring, Amar Chitra Katha brings together nine lesser-known stories from alternate tellings of the two great Indian epics.
