Tuluva KrishnaDevaRaya, immigrated from Tulu speaking Mangalore, lorded over VijayaNagara & wrote epics in Telugu? What was it, in that charmed Pampa Nagari, that faced unheard ire and ended up as Haalu Hampe (laid to dust place)? What happened to all those riches?
  • Kapilipisara - After Sri Rama chandra ascended throne at Ayodhya, what happened to his Vanara Sena? What if they all immigrated to Andaman? Hanuman, Sri Rama's chieftain was disillusioned after Rama abandoned his pregnant wife Seetha, to uphold his pride. What if Andaman is mispronunciation of Hanuman? Are the Jarawa and other tribes, really offspring of Vanara's, who built the famed Rama Sethu?
  • Chithadantha - Buddha's teeth is revered and a prized possession. What if it was the key to the famed riches of Magadha Kingdom, which attracted conquerors across the world, including Alexander of Greece? Why was the DevanaamPriya Ashoka, the apostle of peace, also called ChandaShaasana Ashoka or Chanda Ashoka? What fuelled the rise of Chanakya's protege ChandraGupta Maurya? Did Nehru confiscate the riches in the early days of 1947?
  • Elu rottigalu (2011) - Mir Osman Ali Khan, the 7'th and Last Nizam of Hyderabad, was the richest man ever who lived on Earth. He was and remains a controversial figure, whose reach was unparalleled in world-history. He even was about to anoint his sons to Caliphate and getting the entire Muslim World to fall to his feet, all through his much acclaimed and recorded riches. What was it that made him so rich? All the famed mines of Golkonda and other places? What prompted Nizam to abandon his acute hate towards Indian Government and end his flight to Prince Farookh's Palace in Egypt? Is it true that even today, his riches are being used to fuel Anti-India feelings?

    Why is that the stomach part of all idols in Hoysala Temples look like a Cow? Why is that, the famed sculptors MalliTamma and his ilk not popular as Jakkanna or Jakana Aacharya?
  • Padmapani - What binds the Lotus (Padma) with Jainism? Is there more to the secrets of 24 Thirthankara's, other than spreading message of peace, harmony & love?
  • Nehala
  • Sigeeria (2011) - SriLanka's chequered history criss-crosses that of India, not just for Ramayana or Tamil Natives. It is intertwined with every Century. Kunala, the blind-son of Samrat Ashoka, Sea-faring Kingdoms of Chola and Pandya's, Plantation-ships of European Colonial Rulers, SriLanka, with its great Kingdoms of DhatuSena, Kashyapa and others continues to maintain little affinity with its neighbours. Is there more than just the difference of Languages (Simhala v/s Tamil), Religions (Buddhism v/s Hinduism) or is there more?
