In this episode of Storytelling with Shweta, I have a Ramayana story for you. This one is from the monkey god Hanuman’s childhood. We hear about the day he wanted to eat the sun!
Apart from Hanuman this story features Vayu - the wind god, Indra the king of gods and other characters from Indian mythology.
This family-friendly story is best for all who enjoy stories from the Mahabharata, the Ramayana, Indian mythology and Folk tales.
This story was chosen on request from a birthday boy! If you would like to dedicate an episode to a loved one, get in touch at shweta@shwetaganeshkumar.com
