DECAMERONE 10/01 - Messer Ruggieri and the King of Spain - Storyteller Lakshmi V. / Kathaa Yaana
Lakshmi V., Indian "storypreneur and creator" based in Bengaluru, tells the story about the noble-minded knight Messer Ruggieri who feels hurt by not receiving the king's signs of appreciation and recognition that he deserves. Whereupon the king shows him that this is no sign of his disdain or indifference, but just a matter of unfavorable cirumstances.
Lakshmi has founded her own venture Kathaa Yaana, ‘Kathaa’ meaning Story and ‘Yaana’ meaning Journey in the ancient language of India - Sanskrit.
