The Ramayana has been the most popular epic since it was written hundreds of years ago. It is read and enacted outside India also. It has inspired people in East Asian Countries like Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and Indonesia. Several poets of various regions have written their own versions of the saga of Rama. Valmiki was the first to write and then Tulsidas felt inspired to write his Ramacharit Manas which is being read in almost all Hindu families. Krittikas’ version is very popular in Bengal. Sridhar’s Ramayan in Maharatta language, Kasurban’s Ramayan are classics in their regions. These various poets’ works are scriptures as well as works of literature. Therefore, the love of the people for these works does not show any sign of abatement, though they are not free from interpolations.
