September 30 · 7 minKiranmala: The legend of the princess who conquered Magic Mountain - Malay Bera
Dig into the Bengali tale of a trio of siblings who attempt to scale the fearsome Magic Mountain to gain treasures for their home. -- Inspired by a king’s visit, a trio of siblings began building a palace, traveling far and wide to collect rare jewels, seeds, and marble.
