Initially believed to be suicides, Tenali Rama soon suspects a darker force at play—hypnosis.
As Rama delves deeper into the strange occurrences, he crosses paths with Chandrakala (Piyali Munsi), a skilled hypnotist who claims her rogue disciple is responsible for manipulating the victims. Together, they follow a trail of clues that lead them to Bellary. There, during a poetry recital, Rama encounters the enigmatic poet Virupaksha (Vipin Sharma), whose peculiar behavior and hidden connections raise suspicions.
The mystery thickens when Virupaksha's wife Sharvani (Deepali Saini) becomes embroiled in the plot, only to meet a sudden and shocking end herself.
Amidst this web of deception, Chandrakala is appointed as the Royal Mind Coach, gaining significant influence over the royal court. With her growing power and intimate access to the king, Tenali Rama begins to question whether the true mastermind has been closer than he ever imagined.
Krishna Bharadwaj, who essays the titular role, shared, "This has been one of the most thrilling storylines I've worked on as Tenali Rama. It's packed with suspense, unexpected twists, and the psychological battle between Rama and Chandrakala. What I loved about this track is how it challenges Rama's intellect on a deeper level—it's not just about solving a mystery but facing mysterious incidents involving hypnosis while protecting the king and the kingdom of Vijayanagar.

Tenali Rama continues to captivate audiences with its intricate storytelling and Krishna Bharadwaj's impeccable portrayal of the legendary court poet and strategist.

A solo act brings Surpanaka to life
Thousands of years ago, Rama and Sita were born. They decided to get married. Later, an understanding was reached, where the couple was to spend 14 years of their life away from royalty. The pair, along with Lakshmana, moved through forests. In this journey, they encounter Surpanakha from the Asura clan. Outrightly, she admits her desire to marry Rama. Upon rejection, Surpanakha approaches Lakshmana. And then faces his wrath. Throughout history and most reimaginings of Ramayana, Surpanakha is always portrayed in a one-dimensional, villainous light for daring to speak what her heart desired, for setting her heart on a man, and for stepping outside the bounds of how a woman was expected to behave. Parshathy J Nath, a theatre artiste, finds this 'bizarre'. Why was Surpanakha treated the way she was in Ramayana? Just because she confessed her love for a man, should she be mutilated? These were a few questions she was searching for answers to.
