We know Surpanakhaâs story from the Sanskrit epic, Ramayana. She was the sister of Ravana, king of Lanka, lord of the Rakshasas. She lived in the forest, a free woman. One day, she chanced upon a young hermit called Ram. Smitten by his beauty, she asked him to be her lover.But he had a wife called Sita and so directed him to his younger brother, Laxman, who was all alone.ince Laxman was not married (the local version is ignorant of Laxmanâs wife, Urmila, who he left behind when he followed Ram) he was able to shoot an arrow that struck the nostril of that horse which pulled the sun-godâs chariot. As a result, Ravanâs soul was no longer hidden and Ram was able to kill Ravan.
