About The Book

“Reviving Faith, Reclaiming Language — A Historic Step in Gondi Literature.”

Thodasam Kailas, a visionary teacher and devoted linguist from Adilabad, has etched his name in history by translating the sacred Sundarakanda into the Gondi language, using the Telugu script — a first of its kind.

In this poetic masterpiece, Kailas brings alive the valor, devotion, and divine strength of Lord Hanuman, weaving ancient spirituality with the rhythm of Gondi expression. The verses carry not just the story of Hanuman’s journey, but also the soul of an indigenous tradition that finds new life through his pen.

Kailas’ effort stands as a monumental revival of Gondi literature, bridging cultural heritage and divine epic storytelling. His work has earned national recognition — from being praised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for preserving endangered languages, to inspiring countless youth through his creative use of AI and regional expression.

“Sundarakanda in Gondi” is more than a translation —
it is a cultural linguistic renaissance, a spiritual tribute, and a linguistic awakening that restores pride and devotion among the Gondi-speaking community.

A timeless blend of devotion, language, and legacy — penned with heart, faith, and vision by Thodasam Kailas.
