Rudhramadevi Page #3

Prince, it seems

you are a brave warrior

Are you prepared

for a duel with me?

He is 2 years younger than you

But in warfare tactics...

...he is the bravest of the brave

Gona Ganna Reddy

Really?

Challenge

The way you swirl your sword...

...looks like you will be my only rival

in this kingdom, Ganna Reddy

Gona Ganna Reddy

Prince, you are wanted back

in Vardamanapuram at once

Your father's younger brother

Lakkumaiyah Reddy has sent word

Leave immediately

I take leave, prince

We will meet again in

'The festival of the Brave heart'

I take leave, sir

His father, Gona Buddha Reddy

has passed away unexpectedly

Vardamanapuram is in a state of shock

This news is so distressing

Even a warrior has

to face distress

Do not get dejected, young prince

If we roam around

the streets of Orugallu...

...you will feel relaxed

and rejuvenated

- Come with me

- What?

Outside the fort?

I am not allowed to step out

Permission?

That too for you?

It won't be interesting

if you are bound by rules always

But if Shiva Devaiah gets to know?

We'll be back

before he finds out

Come quickly

My dearest friend...!

This waterfall jumps in joy

just like us and weaves its way

I also grew up amidst

these trees and creepers

But do you know how happy I feel

roaming around with you like this

Is this what you came

running to see, prince?

Did this beautiful sculpture

lure you here?

Poets and sculptors have

varied vivid imagination

With unlimited imagination

and aesthetic sense...

...they create women

in wonderful poses

Woman?

Then what...?

Did you see the beauty

of her upper torso?

Only Rati, the Goddess of Love

is blessed this way

Only the apsara Menaka

has such a petite waist like this

Urvasi's full lips

Graceful curve of Rambha's neck

All these sculpted together

is this beautiful work of art

There is no other girl

as beautiful on this earth

Girl...?

Then...?

Instead of a female, can a male

possess such graceful curves?

'Will you skinnydip

in the river with us?'

Outside, in the open?

When girls bathe together...

...why can't we boys

do the same?

Climb up

Come, my dear prince

Rudradeva...!

Mother?

Amma?

Ma...?

Mother

There is no difference

between you and me, right?

Why are you dressed like this then?

Why did you raise me like this?

Come, dear

Ma...?

Oh! My dear child

'Not just your upbringing'

'Even raising you like this is essential

for the history of our kingdom'

To stop the annexing greed

of neighboring countries...

...to retain the resources and

cultural heritage of our land

...instilling fear in enemies

...we should be a strong

and very powerful kingdom
