Abstract : Women are generally misjudged and misrepresented models in the annals of history. This is extremely reasonable in patriarchal nations, particularly, the sacred articles and mythologies, where women are either completely resisted or primarily discerned as conveyances of men’s worth. The novels inscribed by Kavita Kane; “Ahalya's Awakening” and “The Fisher Queens Dynasty” and it investigates specifically on the representation of the mythological woman through the major female characters in the novels. The female struggles have its origin from time immemorial. The fundamental purpose of this paper is to understand the dilemmas encountered by women in the era represented in the novel and the resurgence of women from the obstacles. The significance of women in a society is taken into consideration. The paper also aims in providing an awareness to empower women and thereby overturn the stereotypical impressions of women in society. The outcome of the study elucidates that women are objectified, uneducated, socially excluded and have to face the dearth of choice. However, Kane's novel attempts to deeply analyze how the female characters emancipate themselves from the oppression caused by the social norms and the circumstances in which women had to face identity crisis.
