  1. Ravan - The Villain Who Was Never Just a Villain

    Show notes

    Every Dussehra, we burn his effigy. In every retelling, we cast him as the demon who stole Sita. But who was Ravan, really? In today's episode of Ramayan with SP, Srishti takes a closer look at one of the most complicated figures in Indian mythology, the scholar, the musician, the Shiva devotee, and the king of Lanka, and asks the question the epic itself seems to ask, that can someone be brilliant and monstrous at the same time?

  2. Urmila - The Woman Who Slept So He Could Stay Awake

    Show notes

    She was Sita's sister and Lakshman's wife. She made one of the greatest sacrifices in the entire Ramayan, not on a battlefield, but in the quiet of a palace room. In today's episode of Ramayan with SP, Srishti tells the story of Urmila: the woman who carried her husband's sleep for fourteen years so he could guard Ram without rest. This one is for everyone who has ever loved someone from a distance. And for everyone whose sacrifice the world forgot to celebrate.

And what does any of this have to do with the job you lost, the friendship that ended, or the city you had to leave behind? This one goes deep into it.
