Chand Ashoka

I watched the Hindi movie Ashoka again. And felt the same sadness again. I certainly got curios about the real history. I had read a play regarding this Kalinga war. But, that was not enough. I wanted to know if someone named Kaurwaki really existed?

Well...I read at few places and wikipedia mentinos her name as a beloved. So, she really did exist. And Ashoka really was an unfortunate great person.

I'm ashamed that I didn't knew any of it, specially when it is OUR history. What more? I'm also from Patliputra, the capital city.
