The novel Sita and Vanya: The Untold Story of Friendship is an emotional story told from the perspective of Vanya, (Sita's friend) a fictional character from the Ramayana. Vanya spent her childhood with Sita in Mithila. Coincidentally, after Sita's marriage, Vanya also get married, and both depart together from Mithila. During the journey from Mithila to Ayodhya and then to exile, she witnesses Sita's patience, compassion, empathy, and feminine experiences. This novel gives voice to the unspoken emotions that lie within the spaces of the traditional Ramayana narrative. At times it captures Sita's gentle smile, and at others, the quiet sorrow hidden within her silence.
Vanya is not the heroine of the story, but rather Sita's shadow-a devoted friend who witnesses, understands, and preserves the subtle emotions of Sita's heart through the many turning points of life.
