THE EPIC STORY OF TARA, QUEEN OF KISHKINDHA, IN WHICH HUMAN AND ANIMAL DESTINIES INTERTWINE IN A CLASH OF COURAGE AND KINSHIP. \n\n\nIn the legendary tale of Ramayan, where deities and demons collide to maintain cosmic order, Tara’s enigmatic story introduces the comedy and joy of animal societies until one mishap changes everything. Balancing the interpersonal dynamics between various life forms, the monkey queen chronicles an enthralling saga of the forest kingdom of Kishkindha. \n\n\nTara’s journey captures the mighty King Bali’s strong belief in animal wisdom, in stark contrast with his brother Sugreev’s admiration for human rationality. Caught in the web of their complex ideologies, Tara skilfully negotiates for peace and pride amidst the treacherous politics of human cruelty and animal instincts. Catastrophic secrets challenge earthly boundaries, linking the fates of both realms, following the vanar king’s tragic death. Faced with profound grief, Tara must now navigate between her past with Bali and her present with Sugreev. \n\n\nIn this richly emotional and stunningly lyrical finale to the Sati series, Koral Dasgupta recasts Tara’s role within the epic, celebrating her determination to carve out a legacy amidst love, loss, loyalties and relentless chaos. \n\n\n\n\nIn the Sati series, Koral Dasgupta explores the lives of the Pancha Kanyas from the Hindu epics and reinvents them with a feminist consciousness.
