Garuda

The story begins with Garud coming to meet his mother, Vinataa. They share a very good bond and have a great love for each other. Garud hates his Naag (Snake) Brothers and his maternal aunt Queen Kadru who ill-treats his mother Vinata. He always tries to know how his mother became Kadru's slave. Vinata gets scared because of the snakes, especially Kaaliya, and Garud comes to save her and shows his ultimate power to the Snakes and Kadru. However, Vinata cools Garud. Vinata then teaches Garud how to stay calm and several important life lessons. Garud asks his mother how to reach Vaikunth, and she tells him. He goes there on the pretext of freeing his mother from slavery and knowing what actually happened. After a series of incidents, he encounters Shesh Naag, who tells him about Vinata and Kadru's past but doesn't know how Vinata became Kadru's slave. He tells him to meet Aditi Maa, the God's mother, to know what really happened. He goes there. He fights the Asura Army who came to kill Aditi Maa and succeeds. To save her children, Diti Maa promises to tell how Vinata became Kadru's slave. Garud goes back and asks Kadru if what she had done was right or not. Her children get angry, and a fight is started between Garud and the Snakes. As a punishment, Garud is made Kadru and her children's slaves. However, Rahu arrives and asks for Garud. Kadru denies to which Rahu retaliates by insulting Kadru. After seeing that Rahu is insulting their mother Takshaka, Kaaliya, and their brothers fight alongside Garud against Rahu and his army. Seeing this, Kadru orders Garud to take her to Maharaj Bali and tells her sons to take care of Garud's mother, Vinata. Rahu notices that Garud along with Kadru is flying away. He then divides himself into two, and one goes behind Garud to see where he is going. They meet Maharaj Bali and convince him to stop the war. The fight is stopped with Kadru praising her sons and Garud wondering why Kadru protected him. Garud is then given a task by Kadru: Get the Suryaphool. Garud, accompanied by his Brothers, accidentally reached Shani Loka, where he is tested and passed. Shani Dev gets angry at the Naag Brothers and they all fall down. Garud doesn't recognize any of the Naag Brothers falling down and gets the Suryaphool. Kadru gets angry and curses Garud. Vinata and Garud pray to Vishnu to prove Garud innocent. Vishnu awakes from his meditation and tells Garud that he will face a lot of trouble and that he will be a part of something big in his life.
