Astitva Prakashan, 2025

Ever wanted to know what happens after the Ramayana? Lanka is a 3-part fictional extrapolation that explores this possibility. A prophecy that reveals itself, an unlikely alliance and a bridge rebuilt, all leading up to another great war to defeat evil. Lanka, the land where once a great battle waged between good and evil. Ravana, the Rakshasa king, was defeated by Lord Rama after which Vibhishana, Ravana's brother, was entrusted with the throne of Lanka and under his leadership emerged the brave and just Rakshasa clan called the Lankans. However, it was only a matter of time before Shurpanakha, the treacherous sister of Ravana took over the throne banishing the Lankans while holding her brother Vibhishana captive. Her master plan reveals itself - Sita's (Rama's wife) kidnapping, the great war of Lanka, Ravana's death - all orchestrated pieces in her ascent to the throne of Lanka. Shurpanakha - the epitome of deceit. Lanka now stands divided between two Rakshasa clans, the Mayas slaves under the dark power of Shurpanakha on one side and the Lankans banished to the forest under their leader Maveera on the other. Vishwamitra, the wise sage and friend to Vibhishana visits the Lankans and reveals the ancient prophecy that the one who carries the royal bloodline of the Rakshasas will bring peace once again to Lanka and that he alone will have the true power to bring together the Lankans and the Mayas. Only few others in the kingdom knew of the prophecy, Shurpanakha being one of them. Her devious mind tells her that the only way to sway the prophecy to her strength is to have a child of her own who will carry the royal blood line. She chooses the most powerful Rakshasa lord to be the father of her child, a logical choice, but her desperation to have a son and only a son to follow her as the ruler of Lanka blinds her.
