Radha by Krishna Dharabasi – Madan Puraskar–Winning Nepali Novel

Radha (राधा) by Krishna Dharabasi is one of the most acclaimed works in modern Nepali literature and the winner of the prestigious Madan Puraskar. The novel reinterprets the epic Mahabharata from the perspective of Radha, giving voice to a woman often overshadowed by divine myth and masculine narratives.

In Dharabasi’s retelling, Radha emerges not just as a symbol of love but as a seeker of truth, freedom, and self-realization. Through her eyes, readers witness the philosophy of devotion (bhakti), the pain of separation, and the awakening of spiritual individuality.

Written in poetic language rich with symbolism, Radha reflects Krishna Dharabasi’s mastery of psychological depth and literary grace. The novel intertwines myth and modern consciousness, presenting Radha as both timeless and human — a reflection of every soul searching for meaning.

This work is celebrated for redefining spiritual love and feminine strength in Nepali literature.
