Yajnaseni
By Pratibha Ray
Rupa & Co
Yajnaseni is Draupadi, princess of Panchal, Panchali, common wife to the five Pandavas, Queen of Indraprastha and perhaps the most misunderstood heroine from our mythology. Revered on the one hand as one of the five supremely virtuous women of Hindu myth (Ahalya, Tara, Mandodari, Satyavati and Draupadi), her name still bears stigma, so much so that no girl is ever named after her. Yet, she was perhaps the strongest of them all, demanding her rights in a male-dominated society, and fighting injustice any which way she could.
