Holi and Onam - Two festivals with a hidden connection, rooted in conflicts both on a mortal and cosmic scale
In this episode, we look at the story of two Kings who achieved power, fame, and wealth by waging wars and invading kingdoms through brute force. The only difference between them was that one of them followed their grandfather's lead and loved God with all his heart since he was a little kid, while the other considered himself God and forced his subjects to worship him. Interestingly, it was the same God that decided to end both their reigns, each in a unique yet spectacular way.
