Folktales of India - Tales from Tripura - Kherengbar - a flower of heaven

This is a folktale from the state of Tripura in North-eastern India, abridged from the book on Folktales of Tripura by D.K Tyagi

The story revolves around how the beautiful flowers of kherengbar have no scent due to a mere curse fallen upon a couple who go to celebrate a local festival in their village. This folktale is illustrated in the style of Alpona gram mural paintings, which try to preserve the Tripura culture by painting the walls of the village

Lots of love and best wishes for making our Tripura tribal folktale video. Also if you want to make a video about folk tales of our state then I will help for collection and I am also a content writer who writes about folk tales.

Indian Folktales and Indian fables are exorbitant and rich keeping in pace with the huge diversities and variation. Although India is a multi- lingual and multi -religious nation, a unity is easily identified; and it is through the metaphorical cord of Indian fables the unity is recognized. Since time immemorial the myths, arduous beliefs on magical qualities and supernatural practices, social norms have become an inevitable part of the Indian fables.

The art form doesn't really depict the proper Tiprasa/Tripuri landscape, dress and features. However, I appreciate the work of Folktales of India in telling the stories of Tripura.
