Surpanakha, Ravana's shady sister, is more disliked than disdainful. Surpanakha is generally seen as revolting and barbaric, merciless and audacious. One whose nose was cut off by Lakshman. She is projected as the lady behind the war. However, she was a culprit or merely a sufferer is what’s going on certainly with my paper. Do you know the original name of Surpnakha? Have you ever think who was Surpnakha? Beside a powerful king’s sister? This paper unfurls the reality of Meenakshi, also is known as Surpanakha. Growing up like an unrecognized youngster, eclipsed by her siblings, again confronting an existence of dismissal. Even the name itself has a purdah (veil) to her birth name Meenakshi, which means a girl with gorgeous eyes. But she is projected as a horrible character in all the manuscripts. The paper is a genuine attempt to show the real misery of the Princess, who faces barbarous treatment by the patriarchal society. The paper will arouse some considerable questions like- Is Meenakshi was truly the only culprit of war? Is she a villain or a sufferer? Is it correct to say that she was Lanka's princess, who faced rejection throughout her life? And Why was she angry with the world?
