About this listen

This is an epic tale of victory and defeat...of the vanquished Asura people, a story that has been cherished by the oppressed outcastes of India for 3,000 years. Unlike Ramayana, the story of Ravanayana has never been told...until now. Perhaps the time has come for the dead and the defeated to speak.

Please note: This audiobook is in Tamil.

Asura= the other side of the Ramayan. Never imagined I'd hear a story about Ravana. And i never imagined I'd hear an actual stroy other than what I saw in Vijay tv(never interested in though). This is something.... amazing.

This is a excellent book which tells about the cast system in India . it is more of communist ideology. Even though it speaks about life and achievements of Rama and Ravana it speaks about the suffering of common man at that time by a fictional character Badran. the suffering of comman man is very much relevant even today. This book criticize Rama and not recommend for those who believe Rama as God

excellent philosophy book

Awesome fictional story well written as Ramayana. Both are fictional but Asura apples more common sense in looking at all the characters without bis. Well done Anand. Good narrative as reading …

Excellent work on the Asura community & narration

Very interesting perspective of Indian mythology . This is equally a likely candidate to be true.
I liked the author's style of bringing two people's first hand narration in the same book and depicting how life in the same society is different for different walks of people .
The imposition of morality for a king vs a poor man are two worlds apart :)

Just finished listening to Asura as an audiobook, and I must say — what an experience! The voice narration was absolutely perfect — calm, powerful, and deeply emotional.

The way Ravanan’s side of the story is told in this book is mind-blowing. For the first time, I could feel his pain, pride, and passion. The author doesn’t just write a story — he reimagines history, and the narrator brings it alive beautifully.

Every chapter made me think: Was Ravanan really the villain? Or just a misunderstood king who dared to challenge gods?

Special mention to the voice and tone used for different characters — Bathran’s perspective added a raw, human emotion that hits you hard.

If you’re into mythology, history, or just powerful storytelling, this audiobook is a must-listen.

Thank you to the team behind this audiobook. Ravanan will always have a place in my heart after this.

Rating: 5/5
