180:(2011) - Mir Osman Ali Khan, the 7'th and Last Nizam of Hyderabad, was the richest man ever who lived on Earth. He was and remains a controversial figure, whose reach was unparalleled in world-history. He even was about to anoint his sons to Caliphate and getting the entire Muslim World to fall to his feet, all through his much acclaimed and recorded riches. What was it that made him so rich? All the famed mines of Golkonda and other places? What prompted Nizam to abandon his acute hate towards Indian Government and end his flight to Prince Farookh's Palace in Egypt? Is it true that even today, his riches are being used to fuel Anti-India feelings? 240:(2011) - SriLanka's chequered history criss-crosses that of India, not just for Ramayana or Tamil Natives. It is intertwined with every Century.

Tuluva KrishnaDevaRaya, immigrated from Tulu speaking Mangalore, lorded over VijayaNagara & wrote epics in Telugu? What was it, in that charmed Pampa Nagari, that faced unheard ire and ended up as Haalu Hampe (laid to dust place)? What happened to all those riches? 164:- After Sri Rama chandra ascended throne at Ayodhya, what happened to his Vanara Sena? What if they all immigrated to Andaman? Hanuman, Sri Rama's chieftain was disillusioned after Rama abandoned his pregnant wife Seetha, to uphold his pride. What if Andaman is mispronunciation of Hanuman? Are the Jarawa and other tribes, really offspring of Vanara's, who built the famed Rama Sethu? 562: 65: 150:- Chandra Gupta Maurya gave up throne, travelled down south to ShravanaBelagola to spread Jainism. Being a ruler, he knew spreading religion needs tonnes and tonnes of resources. He brought with him loads of Gold, all morphed as Sweet Corn Seeds.
