In this episode, we see how a scene of war depicts a situation in love, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Kurunthogai 328, penned by the historian poet, Paranar. The verse is situated in the coastal regions of ‘Neythal’ and speaks in the voice of the confidante to the lady, consoling her in the man’s absence and assuring her that the rumours that spread will act only for the lady’s good.
