Its always good to read Amar Chitra Katha.

[Jon Nakapalau · Rating 5 out of 5]

The story of Kalidasa warns us that we should never make superficial judgements when looking at the character of individuals. From humble birth to scholar and poet, Kalidasa always tried to use his talents in a way that would positively impact those around him. A tale with much to reflect on, even now, in our modern world.

Who knows how much of the story is true, but it is interesting.

A rediscovery

A nostalgic read. I have read this when I was 11 or 12 years old . 38 years before. Amar Chitra Katha is a link to our past. Jai Hind

Do you know Kalidasa got his name because he loved worshipping Maa Kali? He was an uneducated cowherd who became the most famous playwright, thanks to his wife's words. But he was also cursed by the very same wife, and his death came to him in the form of a woman. Kalidasa was a master poet and playwright who became the bosom friend of maharaja Bhoja. His life story is nothing but fascinating.

I loved this book. The story of Kalidasa, his intelligence, his devotion to goddess Kali, how he considered his wife as his guru and then could not be her husband anymore, his relationship with Raja Bhoja, and his demise - all these details are covered very well in this story.

Better than echoing the foreign culture of comics!

Though I have heard about Kalidasa a lot, I didn't know anything about his life. This provided a concise summary of his journey.
