- : 81-8482-199-9
- : He may have looked like a demon, but Ghatotkacha was a guardian angel, always ready to help, always cheerful. The Pandava brother, Bheema, was lucky to have him as a son, for he saved his life more than once and if it were not for this brave young rakshasa, the Kauravas may well have been the victors of the famous battle of Mahabharata.

- : 81-8482-162-X
- : Son of the beautiful goddess Ganga, the giver of life, the lad was born to greatness. Not only was he handsome and wise, he was also equally adept on the battlefield or in a regal court. As this tale reveals, Bheeshma is best remembered for his exceptional honesty and kindness. Who else would have uncomplainingly suffered the trials of kingship without its comforts? Who else would have chosen long years of loneliness just to pander to a father's whim?

Fate, however, had other plans. This haunting tale of passion and loyalty presents the other side of the war and a hero as shining as the sun.

- : Prahlad (No:1593)
- A tale of devotion from the bhagawat purana
- :
- : 81-8482-019-4
- : Prahlad drove his monstrous father to a murderous rage. He insisted on praising Lord Vishnu who was considered a sworn enemy by his father Hiranyakashipu. When he tried to punish his disobedient son, Hiranyakashipu's potent poisons turned to nectar while his lethal weapons fell harmlessly away. In this tale of bloodthirsty revenge, Prahlad's only defence is his devotion which dramatically puts an end to all evil.
