The Story of King Mahabali and Vishnu’s Vamana Avatar At the playground, Ananya’s cheeks were red with anger.“Sid! What was that behaviour with Shanaya? She just wanted to play Lagori with us? Why didn’t you let her play?” Sid crossed his arms, looking smug. “Because she’s so short and puny! How can she possibly strike

It was a cool evening, and the sun had just set behind the clouds, painting the sky in shades of purple and orange.
