 those who were discriminated by the Rajguru. Tenali Raman asked Rajguru the reason for his behavior. “ The people of these caste are evil, and even If by mistake I will look at them, I will be born as a donkey in my next life” replied Rajguru. Tenali realized that Rajguru needs to taste his own medicine.
Few days later, Krishnadev Raye was leading Royal procession through the streets of Vijayanagar. On the way, there was a group of donkeys. As soon as Tenali looked at Donkeys, he jumped off his horse and started bowing before those donkeys. Krishnadev Raye laughed and asked the reason behind this act. “I am paying respect to the ancestors of Rajguru, who had mistakenly looked at people of lower castes.” Replied Tenali. Rajguru understood the message. After that, he stopped discriminating any person.
Once upon a time, Delhi Sultan sent his spy disguised as a sage to the Vijaynagar kingdom. The spy was very ruthless. Whoever came to knew about the spy’s secret, was fed with a hallucinogenic drug. When Tenali Rama came to know about this, he decided to teach spy a lesson. Tenali somehow made the spy confront the man, whom spy fed the hallucinogen. 
When King Krishnadev Raye came to know about this, he became infuriated with Tenali. Without wasting time, Krishnadev Raye ordered his guards to execute Tenali. The guards took Tenali to some wilderness and buried him in the ground till neck. After some time, the guards left and a humped washer man passed by Tenali. Looking at Washerman, Tenali understood that the man is suffering from hump problem. Tenali thought an idea to come out of ground. Tenali convinced the washer man that he is practicing a proven remedy to fix hump. The Washer man, optimistic of getting rid of his old problem, dug Tenali out and buried got himself buried till neck. Clever Tenali once gain proved his wit and saved his life.
This has to be one of the funniest Tenali Raman stories that will have your kids cracking up in no time.
The story is about King Krishnadevaraya’s mother, who was a very religious and pious lady. She wanted to present Brahmins with ripe mangoes as a gesture of respect towards them. Sadly, the King’s mother died that night. 
After he had performed all her religious rights, he called some of the brahmins and told them of his mother’s wish and how we wish to perform it.
The brahmins however, suggested that his mother’s soul would only rest in peace if, the king gave them golden mangoes instead of regular mangoes!
The King obliged, and the next day he invited the brahmins to the court to provide them with the mangoes made of gold.
Tenali Raman was present when they came to the court and immediately understood the greed of the brahmins.
Tenali Raman steps in...
He invited them to his house the next day to teach them a lesson. The brahmins were very happy that they got the golden mangoes from the King. They were also overjoyed that Tenali Raman had invited them to his house.
The brahmins thought that maybe, Tenali Raman also wanted to make a donation to them.
But when they got to his house, they saw that Tenali Raman was standing with a hot iron bar!
This astonished the brahmins.
 Therefore he wanted to burn the legs of the Brahmins so that his mother’s soul to rest in peace.
The brahmins immediately understood they had been tricked!
They quickly returned the golden mangoes to Tenali Raman and ran off. The brilliant Tenali Raman gave all the golden mangoes to the King and told him how the brahmins had fooled him.
The Greedy Brahmins, a classic Tenali Raman story, is hilarious and carries a tremendous moral for kids. It is one of the best Tenali Ramakrishna stories in English.
Moral of the story : One should not be greedy and should find happiness in whatever one has or gets!
Once upon a time, a man of high intellect visited Royal court of Vijaynagar. King Krishnadev Raye was very much impressed with the intelligent man. Sometime later, Krishnadev Raye inquired the visitor about his home land. The visitor thought of being a bit mischievous so instead of directly answering the question, the visitor threw a challenge. The visitor challenged Kirshnadev Raye to find out his home land. All the courtiers tried their best to find out the visitor’s home land. When everyone failed, Krishnadev Raye entrusted this duty to Tenali Rama. Tenali claimed to reveal about the visitor’s homeland next morning. Everyone retired to their places.
At night, the visitor was accidentally served too much spicy meal on the dinner table. The visitor started shouting for water. Royal chef prepared new meal for visitor and asked for forgiveness. Next morning Tenali revealed that the visitor’s home land is Tamil. Tenali continued “I beg your pardon gentleman, but it was me only who deliberately asked the royal chef to serve you intensely spicy food. When you were shouting for water, you also cried “Amma” which is a Tamil word for mother. And when in pain, a person always calls his mother and that too in his mother tongue. Hence I can confidently say that your hometown is Tamil.” Once again everyone was amazed with Tenali’s wit.
Once upon a time, an Arabian horse trader visited Vijaynagar Kingdom. King Kirshnadev Raye was very much impressed with the horses brought by traders. He immediately purchased all the horses. Now rose the question of raring and domestication of these horses. Finally, it was decided that every royal courtier will take the responsibility of 1 horse and 1 Gold Coin would be given monthly to everyone for the maintenance of the horses. 1 Gold coin per month was not enough for rearing such a costly horse. However, no one dared to utter a single word against Krishnadev Raye’s wish.
1 Month later, Krishnadev Raye desired to inspect the horses. Every courtier fed the horse well, even if he had to sleep hungry sometimes except for Tenali Rama. When the horse inspector examined Tenali’s horse, he found it too aggressive and weak. Krishnadev Raye strictly asked Tenali the reason behind this negligence. To this Tenali replied, “ Maharaaj, if a horse can become this weak and aggressive because of being ill-fed, think about those royal courters who are sleeping hungry time and again but trying to feed the costly horses given by you in turn of merely 1 gold coin per month.” Krishnadev Raye understood the message. He immediately took back the horses from courters.
Once upon a time there a lived a boy named Ram in a Tenali Village. As the family responsibilities of Ram grew, he started looking for some better livelihood opportunities. Coincidentally, Rajguru of Vijaynagar royal court was visiting tenali village. Ram tried his level best to please the Rajguru. In turn the Rajguru promised that he will convince King Krishnadev to appoint Ram as an advisor in his royal court. However, the Rajgueu was cunning person and he simply dismissed the Ram’s matter after returning to Vijanagar.
After waiting for long, Ram went to Vijaynagar city on his own and planned to visit an esteemed poet of royal court – Thimanna. Thimmana was impressed with Ram’s intellect and he gifted Ram a pearl pendent received by him from King Krishnadev Raye. Next day Ram entered the Royal court. King Krishnadev Raaye was amazed to see the royal pendent around a stranger’s neck. When inquired about it, Tenali replied that he is the one who has won the heart of the person dearest to you – Thimanna. Even King was impressed with Rama’s intelligence and humor, so he appointed Rama as his royal advisor and awarded him a new name – Tenali Rama.
Tenali was determined to avenge the Rajguru’s act of betrayal. So he teamed up with Rajguru’s servant and discovered that the Rajguru occasionally goes for hunting which was prohibited in Vijaynagar. Next time, when the Rajguru left for jungle, Tenali followed him. Tenali Raman caught the Rajguru red handed and agreed to keep his mouth shut on a condition. Tenali asked the Rajguru to allow him sit over Rajguru’s shoulders and give him a ride of entire Vijaynagar kingdom. Rajguru did what Tenali demanded.
When Rajguru and Tenali were passing by royal palace, King Krishnadev Raye noticed this unusual duo. As soon as the King realized that one person is causing intense trouble to another person, he got infuriated and ordered his guards to drag the person taking ride over another being’s shoulders to royal court. On the other hands, Tenali sensed something is wrong, so he jumped off the Rajguru’s shoulders and requested Rajguru to climb his shoulder instead. Rajguru happily did what Tenali requested. Sooner, the royal guards arrived the scene.
They pulled Rajguru down and dragged him to royal court. Krishnadev angrily instructed Rajguru to apologize
