Description

Ramayana has inspired people in the subcontinent and several nations of south east Asia for centuries. It’s one of the greatest myths of humanity. Yet, it is also controversial in many ways.


The treatment of women, especially Sita has sparked many debates. Chitra Banerjee Divakurani’s book “Forest of Enchantments” adds to this conversation. As part of Enthu Book Club, Nikita and I read this book and had lots of opinions about it.


Hear us rant about Ramayana and the book “Forest of Enchantments”. Also, big disclaimer — none of our remarks are meant to hurt religious sentiments. We are trying to see Ramayana as a piece of fiction and not as a religious text.
