Abstract
The Mahabharata and The Ramayana are the two great epics in Indian literature that explore the belief of Hinduism. Every human deed gives rise to a myth that connects it to historical occurrences like The Ramayana and The Mahabharata. The role of men and women are distinct in The Palace of Illusion. Women are consigned to the domestic skills while men are elevated as worries and statesmen. Intellectual respect for women is lacking. Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni is one of the famous Indian born American author. Among all of her works The Palace of Illusion takes unique place in today’s world. The Palace of Illusion describes the theme of courage, suffering, domination and grapple. Writers like Anand Neelakantan, Amish Tripathi are modernizing the old version of mythology with past and present scenarios. Mythology converts ordinary events into an extraordinary one so that the myth is still alive in minds of the Indians. Almost all day in the Indian calendar connected with mythology. In this epic, Draupadi’s life shows how women accept the culture without any queries. The perspective of Draupadi’s life is totally different from normal women. Draupadi is a devoted wife of the five Pandavas. The important thing to learn from Draupadi is self-esteem, confidence and persistence. This paper focuses on cultural and ethical values in The Palace of Illusion. It presents a fresh take of the novelist’s portrayal of Draupadi’s voice.
