Bhanumati Narasimhan on Sita: A Tale of Ancient Love In Conversation with Rajita Kulkarni
On 27th Nov 4.00 pm - 4.40 pm
“My favourite character was Sita. She was and is part of our lives. I always drew to her story of strength, courage and patience. I wanted to bring out the qualities she has in my book that every woman can aspire to. She has gone through a lot, and we can learn a lot from her life. My father had a scientific temperament where he explained very evidently the story of Ramayana. I found pride in all religious literature, where there is so much to learn and understand. I did research which gave me insights, and I wrote. Sita was a princess, and overnight she had to go forest, and she didn’t mind. Sita was a “Gungrahi” who attracted positivity and absorbed goodness.”
