he Pious Cat – The Tale of Poocha Sanyasi
In this delightful folk tale, we follow the misadventures of a greedy cat who sneaks into a farmer’s house to steal curd. When the pot breaks and its rim gets stuck around his neck, the cunning cat transforms his accident into a grand lie — claiming it is a holy necklace from Kedar and that he is a great saint, the Poocha Sanyasi. Along the way, an innocent peacock, dove, and rat become his loyal disciples, believing his false spiritual journey to the Ganga. But the truth surfaces when the cat reveals his cruel intentions during the night. Just as danger closes in, fate intervenes in the form of a dog, saving the three helpless disciples.
This episode explores innocence, deception, greed, and the triumph of truth — all wrapped in humour and adventure. Perfect for children and families who love meaningful yet entertaining stories!
