The Roots of India series will bring children closer to their roots through stories that will introduce them to the India of the past, the present and the future - its mythology, its history, its geography, its people, its cities, its food and everything that constitutes the rich cultural diversity of India.
The first boxset in the series, Great Stories of India, will contain a collection of some of India's greatest stories ranging from tales from the Panchatantra and stories of the Mahabharata to India's many festivals and its ancient learned men and women
