Goddess of the River is a powerful reimagining of the story of Ganga, goddess of the river, and her doomed mortal son. This tale weaves through the lives of a mother and a son, a goddess and a prince, exploring themes of curse and oath, and the river whose course will change the fate of the world.

Ganga, the joyful goddess of the river, serves as caretaker to the mischievous godlings who roam her banks. But when their antics incur the wrath of a powerful sage, Ganga is cursed to become mortal, bound to her human form until she fulfills the obligations of the curse.

As a mortal, Ganga weds King Shantanu and becomes a queen, determined to regain her freedom no matter the cost. Yet, in a cruel twist of fate, as she is freed from her binding, she must leave her infant son behind.

Her son, prince Devavrata, unwittingly carries the legacy of Ganga’s curse. His fateful oath to never claim his father’s throne sets in motion a chain of events leading to a terrible and tragic war.

As the years unfold, Ganga and Devavrata's paths cross time and again, each meeting another step on a path predestined by the stars. Goddess of the River is a deeply moving and masterful tale that delves into duty, destiny, and the unwavering bond between mother and son.
