Stories Of India Retold

The REAL Mahabharata, Mythology, Folklore & more–well-researched, simplified stories from India. Stories from Mahabharata as told in the Critical Edition of The Mahabharata. 

Hi, I'm Nivi Shetty—a lifelong lover of books, stories, history & all things curious. I am fascinated by the vast world of Indian mythology, epics, and folklore, but I realized I didn’t know these stories in their true, original form. So, I embarked on a journey to uncover the ancient tales of my ancestors—stories that shaped our culture, values, and identity; because the best way to understand a people is through their stories.

With a background in science and education, I approach these timeless stories with a fresh, thoughtful perspective—bringing in research, insights, and a touch of wonder. My podcast is my way of honoring these stories, retelling them with reverence, and weaving them into our lives today. Join me as we explore the rich tapestry of India’s past, one fascinating story at a time.
