Why did Rama agree to go on vanvas – was it only to obey his father or was there more to it? How was the relationship of Rama and Seeta? Is the Ramayana inherently misogynist, considering the characterisation of Seeta, Shurpanakha, Kaikeyi and Tara? What led to the downfall of Ravan? and more.

Why did Rama agree to go on vanvas – was it only to obey his father or was there more to it? How was the relationship of Rama and Seeta? Is the Ramayana inherently misogynist, considering the characterisation of Seeta, Shurpanakha, Kaikeyi and Tara? What led to the downfall of Ravan? and more. Her earlier book 'Mahabharata Unravelled: Lesser-Known Facets of a Well-Known History' brought to light fascinating details and aspects of the people and events in the great epic not commonly known and answered some often-asked questions and clarified prevalent myths.

In this podcast, Kushal chats with Ami Ganatra about her new book "Ramayana Unravelled". As in her previous book on the Mahabharata Ami debunks many myths and popular notions as she uses the primary text as her source in this book.

The Zafarnāma was a spiritual victory letter sent by Guru Gobind Singh in 1705 to the Mughal Emperor of India, Aurangzeb, after the Battle of Chamkaur. The letter is written in Persian and verse. The version currently in circulation found in the Dasam Granth, the compilation of Guru Gobind Singh's poetry, is in Gurmukhi script and Persian verse. Guru Gobind Singh sent 5 Singhs including Daya Singh, Dharam Singh and Sambhal Singh with the help of Naib Subedar Haji Sardar Shah to deliver the Zafarnama to Emperor Aurangzeb in Ahmednagar in 1707. In this letter, Guru Gobind Singh reminds Aurangzeb how he and his soldiers had broken their oaths sworn upon the Qur'an when they promised safe passage to the Guru but launched a hidden attack of an army described as much larger, on forty famished Sikh soldiers. He tells Aurangzeb this was not a battle, it was a slaughter. As such, in spite of losing most of his Sikhs in this attack, he had won a moral victory over the Emperor who had broken his vows to Allah. He also states that despite sending a huge army to capture or kill the Guru, the Mughal forces did not succeed in their mission. This historic poem was translated in Hindi verse for the first time in 300+ years by Veteran Wing Commander Vijay Chattur. To speak more about this piece of Indian culture, Ami Ganatra explores his view on the text and more.

The great war of right versus wrong was fought here. It was from this land that Lord Krishna's wisdom—the universal truth—spread across the globe. It is the cradle of the ancient Indus-Saraswati civilization, with the sacred river Saraswati, glorified in the Rig Veda, flowing in its full might across the plains and onward. Kings and emperors used this place to expand and consolidate their empires. The East India Company, and later the British Crown, played their games here, manipulating and managing their colonial affairs. The much-ridiculed ‘Aaya Ram, Gaya Ram' political epithet originated here. This land gave the nation a number of stalwarts of the Independence movement. And, it became the address for a cocktail of regional and national political manoeuvrings, impacting national politics in major ways. In his debut book, Land of the Gods: The Story of Haryana, Arjun Singh Kadian takes the readers through a fascinating journey of Haryana which offers new insights and delightful nuggets. His work has been described as an ambitious book that engages with a region and people who have defined the subcontinent for over five millennia. In this episode, hosted by Ami Ganatra, he tackles topics such as the medieval history of Haryana, how ancient Haryanvis led their lives in one of the most war-struck parts of India, and more. This episode is sure to be a treat for history buffs.

Between the years 1659 and 1818, the Marathas fought hundreds of battles, not only in the Sahyadris, but across the country. Some of these were pivotal and game changing - such as the Pratapgad Campaign, Palkhed or Panipat. The course of Maratha and Indian history was altered by these battles. This book attempts to throw a light on a dozen of these significant battles and campaigns, focusing on the reasons, the chess - like moves and the effects of victories and defeats. In this episode, the author of the book Aneesh Gokhale breaks down the significance of some well-known battles of the Maratha Empire. He began by describing the situation in the Deccan before the rise of Chhatrapati Shivaji, followed by his encounter with Afzal Khan and his fight against the British. He also broke down the significance of the 27 year war with the Mughal empire and the reasons for the eventual fall of the Maratha Empire. This episode is hosted by author Ami Ganatra, who has appeared on the Bharatvaarta episode "Mahabharata Unravelled".

In this latest episode of shravaNa: the Rashtram Podcast, Rashtram Accelerator Programme learner Namrata Anantharam talks to author Ami Ganatra about the latter's newly released book, titled "Mahabharata Unravelled: Lesser-Known Facets of a Well-Known History" (Bloomsbury India, 2021), in light of Bharat's unbroken Itihasa-Purana tradition, distortions of several aspects of this tradition's interpretation through pop culture, the importance of yatra-s in understanding the tradition, and more. 

Millennia have passed since the dharma yudhha of the cousins shook the land of Bharata. But this history of our ancestors continues to fascinate us. Even today, we have passionate discussions about the people and their actions in the epic, fervidly defending our favourites and denouncing others. The number of works on the Mahabharata-adaptations, retellings and fiction-that still get written is a testimony to its enduring relevance. While the general storyline is largely known, a lot of questions and myths prevail, such as-What was the geographical extent of the war? Did Drona actually refuse to take on Karna as his disciple? What were Draupadi's responsibilities as the queen of Indraprastha? Did she ever mock Duryodhana? Were the women in the time of the Mahabharata meek and submissive? What were the names of the war formations during the time? What role did the sons of the Pandavas play? Does the south of India feature at all in the Mahabharata? What happened after the war? These and many other intriguing questions continue to mystify the contemporary reader. Author Ami Ganatra debunks myths, quashes popular notions and offers insights into such aspects not commonly known or erroneously known, based solely on facts as narrated in Vyasa's Mahabharata from generally accepted authentic sources. For a history of such prominence and influence as the Mahabharata, it is important to get the story right. So pick this book up, sit back and unveil the lesser-known facts and truths about the great epic.
