The present study is based on the premise that Ramayana is relevant even today in the society. Writers find in the characters of Ramayana their alter egos and get inspired to revisit the epic for its ability to offer caution, guidance and solace. One such work which catches the attention is Professor Nandini Sahu's book, Sita:A Poem in which the poet has drawn parallels to the characters and situations in Ramayana or more specifically in Uttar Ramayana. The book makes a captivating study not only for its vastness of references to the ancient text which is a testimony of the in-depth epical knowledge of the writer but also for its application of that knowledge to the state of affairs in the present day world. The poet has invoked the beauty and the strength that lies within a woman and has not shied away from uncovering the ugliness which cozily lies hidden behind the so-called social institutions like marriage, customs and family.
