About this listen

Ram Rajya. The Perfect Land. But perfection has a price. He paid that price.

3400 BCE. India.

Ayodhya is weakened by divisions. A terrible war has taken its toll. The damage runs deep. The demon King of Lanka, Raavan, does not impose his rule on the defeated. He instead imposes his trade. Money is sucked out of the empire. The Sapt Sindhu people descend into poverty, despondency and corruption. They cry for a leader to lead them out of the morass. Little do they appreciate that the leader is among them. One whom they know. A tortured and ostracised prince. A prince they tried to break. A prince called Ram.

He loves his country, even when his countrymen torment him. He stands alone for the law. His band of brothers, his Sita, and he against the darkness of chaos.

Will Ram rise above the taint that others heap on him? Will his love for Sita sustain him through his struggle? Will he defeat the demon Lord Raavan who destroyed his childhood? Will he fulfil the destiny of the Vishnu?

Begin an epic journey with Amish's latest: the Ram Chandra Series.

A very interesting take on ancient practices and believes persisted in India weaved into Ramayan story line

More realistic. Excellently written and narrated

Amish has added his own touch to the great Ramayana. I know it's not like the original and we can never compare both as they are perfect in their own ways. This version suits more to the current situation as it is more realistic and kinda scientific. There is no doubt Amish is one of the best writers. initially when I started hearing I thought I won't like it the way i liked Shiva Triology because when i saw the title I had experienced the same old Ramayana tale and this was nothing like that but as soon as I stopped comparing two of em this book turned out to be great. the narrator has done a great job too. overall I don't have words for Amish and his team. I can't wait to start the next book :)

As Shekharji rightly said, 'Amish is literary popstar of India'!

Amazing narration and storytelling by Sagar Arya!
A great improvement from whoever narrated Shiva trilogy.
Awesome read.

Enticing Read

Really well written and very well performed. Please do not think its a retelling of Ramayana, this is a work of fiction inspired by Ramayana and a very good one I should say.
