I have learned a lot through stories based on Mahabharat, Ramayan. I think myths are more real, says renowned playwright, director & actor Girish Karnad. He said, I grew up in sirsi village in Karnataka. The great thing in sirsi was stories; we seat together in school & listen lots of stories based on Mahabharat, Ramayan.
