The final couple of years saw an unprecedented boom in Indian English Fiction. Ashwin Sanghi and Ashok banker are actually a few very popular precursors who reintroduced Indian mythology and history to the contemporary Indian audience. While these authors revisited Indian mythology and tweaked the famous stories from the Mahabharata and the Ramayana to appease the modern rationales and their many ideologies and perspectives. Within this paper we show the yester years as faithfully as he actually could while only spicing up the events to separate the historical monotone.
