Story

Surayavanshi Ram of Ayodhya, the greatest warrior king that ever lived and the main character of the Ramayana, was forced to send his beloved wife Sita into exile, thus leading him and his kingdom to despair and towards an empty future.

Unknown to Ram, far away in Sage Valmiki's hermitage, Sita lives as Vandevi, raising their twin sons, Luv and Kush. Though not aware of their lineage, the twins imbibe wisdom, compassion, and combat skills that would put any royal prince to shame.

Sita teaches Luv -Kush to always work as a team, secretly hoping that her estranged family would find a way to come together one day. The twins must conquer their inner demons before they can achieve their destinies.

Accompanied by a steadfast gang of their lovable friends, Luv-Kush's journey takes them from enchanted forests with mythical creatures to the revered land of Ayodhya, the home of their fabled heroes.^[1]
