A Kidnapping Spree (Tamil Edition): The Legend of Ponnivala [Tamil Series 2, Book 8] [Tamil]

By Brenda E.F. Beck

"The Legend of Ponnivala" is a vast, ancient epic from the Kongu region of South India, where it is known as the "Annanmar Kathai" or "Elder Brothers' Story." It is the story of three generations of a farming family who through their exploits and the intercession of the Hindu gods rise to become kings of their region. Previously only told orally by bards in the local area, it is surprisingly accurate in its accounts of historical events, and has close ties to the Mahabharata.In Episode 21: There is a parrot hunt, complete with a tiger and cobra fight. The brothers capture one parrot but its male companion complains to the Forest Princess.
