Many see him as a villian with no redeeming features, just a violent, brutal man. The key thing is that in modern-day, the image we have of Raavan has been drawn largely from some television serials, and we have a very simplistic take on him. What perception are you hoping people will have towards Raavan post reading the book? So therefore I thought Raavan – Enemy of Aryavarta perhaps describes the story a lot better. But as I started writing more of the book, I realised that it was the other way around, Raavan rejected his own land.Īn orphan makes him sound like a bechaara, whereas he actually had agency. When I had written Ram – A Sign of Ikshavaku, Sita – Warrior of Mithila, the title of the third book, in my mind, was Raavan – Orphan of Aryavarta, because at that time the story till then gave me the impression that Raavan had been rejected by his own birth land, by Aryavarta. The novel was initially named Raavan – Orphan of Aryavarta. This was towards the beginning of 2014 and I started writing back then. That day I decided my next series is on lord Ram, which would be my interpretation of Lord Ram and Sita ma’s story. Then there was an incident where someone spoke to me about Lord Ram in a disrespectful way, which upset me. Once the Shiva Trilogy was over, I wasn’t sure what I’m going to write next.
