Indian Epics

Dear Diary, I am a Queen or I used to be. If you could even call me that, I am or was at this point in my life the first wife married to King Pandu more like King Pale one. I am not the favorite wife but the second Madri. King Pandu is always Madri this and Madri that. I hope my boys never treat their wives like Pandu treats me. Little does the lovely King Pandu know that he has never had an heir. I can’t believe those two left me with all the children! Like it is not my fault he shot the sages in deer form and then got himself exiled. All those years in solitude and he never thought when he saw Madri again why have I been casted out all of those years. But no, he just ran to Madri like an idiot but you know what they say you can’t fix stupid. And that had to be the stupidest move. Then here comes the melodramatic Madri talking about her heart and how she could not bare to live in a world without him. Like Madri do you not remember the children? Everyone else viewed it as a noble ...

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 ...

I think a nice little spin on Sita and Rama story when he wins her at the tournament would be having Bhishma also compete but fighting against Rama and then having another king intervene and saying that he had 3 daughters that he can have instead of Sita. I could also use elements of the contest mentioned in this story for more levels ending at a final brawl for Sita kind of like an Olympic games of love. I kind it kind of sad that Pandu had a favorite wife and it was constantly mentioned and I think it would be a great story line for Kunti to be able to have a view of what it was like to be the least favorite wife and her trying to do her duty but constantly being pushed aside until the very end. I think making a storybook on the Pandava brothers adventures would be neat and making up wild tales as if they were bedtimes stories. I think you could also do a who am I type of story with the boy whose mother sent him away in the river and make the story sound similar to Moses and at the...
