Week 6 Reading Part B



Bhima and Rama seem very similar to me there could possibly be a storyline where they are swamped sort of like a parent trap theme and only kunti and sita would be able to tell them apart and notice the difference between the two. Or even doing a story were they parallel each other and show their similarities between their adventures seeing as they both travel with their brothers.


Now Draupadi would be an interesting tale to retell because like mentioned having 5 husbands is very uncommon and how praying 5 times landed her with five husbands. I guess you could kind of spin it to where Shiva was bored and wanted to be ‘extra’ in a sense and grant her wishes exactly as asked.





I think also making a story about how specific the curses are that they call people by name in their curses they can break them would be a great way to tell a story. Also in these stories they seem to fall in love at a glance I think incorporating a god of love story into these tells and how he/she is always making people fall in love with others because they are unable to make themselves fall in love. Or even the love of Arjuna he won a wife for him and his brothers and then was exiled had a child and then Krinsha’s sister to fall in love with him.
