<p>A woman too has a little &ldquo;self&rdquo; beyond the roles that she plays. That self only craves for that little &ldquo;bit&rdquo; which has been passed over or been taken for granted. That missing &lsquo;bit&rsquo; ignored again and again leading to a vacuum that nothing can or will fill. Draupadi, a woman who was denied childhood, sought love in the valour of the world&rsquo;s best archer, and the &ldquo;bit&rdquo; in her was crushed time and again- when she had to share her love, when she had to welcome another woman and the culmination when her mighty husbands became mute spectators to her public disrobement; no amount of valour on the battle field could fill those missing bits which when denied left a black hole full of sorrow and bitterness. The vacuum that Sita felt when she had to take the test of fire; no matter her husband vanquished the mightiest, but that test, a moment of truth, threw light on that glaring missing &ldquo;bit&rdquo;.</p>
