This week I read Mahiravana: a Magician Outwitted part of the Amar Chitra Kathas
- Mahiravana, magician, king of the netherworld, son of Ravana (king of Lanka)
- Summoned by dad to help defeat Ram and his crew after the death of Indrajit and Kumbha
- Ravana's brother Vibhi spys on Lanka in form of bird and tells Ram of Mahi..Hanu builds fort
- Mahi plans to kidnap Rama and Laksh and sacrifice them to the goddess Durga
- Mahi disguises himself as King D to get into the fortress - fail
- disguises himself as Bharata - fail
- disguises himself as Vibhi - success
- Rama and Laskh taken before real Vibhi comes in
- Hanuman on a mission...just in time before Durga puja
- Hanu gets help from Ma Durga on how to save Rama and Laksh
- Puja begins and both say they don't know how to bow and ask Mahi to show them...Hanu attacks at that point
- Mahi defeated...Hanu leads the brothers back through the tunnel
Vibhishana as the bird |
