Tenali Raman Stories for Kids : Tenali Raman And Two Thieves One summer night, when Tenali Raman and his wife were about to sleep, he heard a rustling sound of leaves coming from outside. There was not even a slightest breeze blowing at the time, so he presumed that there were some thieves hiding in the bushes. He figured that they must be planning to rob his house in the night. He thought of a plan and said to his wife, “My dear, I have heard that some notorious thieves are on the loose in our neighborhood. So, let’s hide all the jewellery and money that we have in the well. A little later, Tenali Raman and his wife came out of the house carrying a big trunk, and dropped it into the well. Then they went back inside the house, and pretended to be asleep. The thieves waited for a while and then started drawing water from the well. They hoped to empty the well and get the treasure. The thieves kept drawing out water the entire night. Towards daybreak, they managed to pull out the trunk, and when they opened it, they were extremely shocked and disappointed to see only some big stones in it. They understood that it was Tenali Raman’s plan to outsmart them. Just then, Tenali Raman came out of his house and said, “Thank you friends, for watering my plants. I must pay you for your labour.” Hearing this, the thieves fell at Tenali’s feet for forgiveness. They promised not to steal or rob anyone ever again. Tenali decides to let them go. Moral- Keeping cool and using your wit in dire situations can help you get out of them. The videos you are watching from our Tenali Raman series are inspired by the Kathputli style of puppet theatre in India. The puppets are usually made out of wood, metal and cloth with exaggerated facial features which have been painted on. The movement of the limbs are controlled by a string or in some cases, metal rods. The use of puppets can be seen as one of the oldest forms of entertainment and storytelling in India. The stories performed were not just for amusement – they were also a form of moral and social education for the masses, covering subjects such as illiteracy. #TwoThievesStory #English #TenaliRaman To read the complete story visit the best e-learning website here: https://mocomi.com/tenali-raman-and-two-thieves/ For more such fun learning and interesting stories, visit: https://mocomi.com/fun/stories/tenali-raman/ Watch more tenali raman videos in one go here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCXdvPLm-r0&list=PL6vCwGtCTVtPhQNOvu2ITscrukUsboqKP Subscribe here for new and interesting content every week ► ► https://www.youtube.com/mocomikids?sub_confirmation=1 Press Bell Icon 🔔; For Latest Updates.
