The tale of Sita being taken by the demon king Ravana is a renowned narrative in the Hindu epic, the Ramayana. Considering the general religious bias against demons, we believe that Ravana's portrayal is unjustly negative in this account. Our aim is to present this story as a love saga that has been mischaracterized as an abduction. We explore it from Sita's viewpoint, who had to suppress her genuine affection for Ravana to safeguard herself from the wrath of the deity Rama.
