Inspired and influenced by Valmiki, Ram katha adaptations are found in different languages of India. Its clear impression is also found in the nonliterary arts of the country and abroad. Ram katha's illustrations are found on the paintings and sculptures of Sri Lanka, Java, Sumatra, Cambodia etc. In Mauritius when our ancestors were punished with black water; it was the narration of Ram katha (Ramayana) in the evening that relieved them from despair and depression of the whole day's hard work.
