Sita and Draupadi are the two great heroines of India and they are as different from each other as the Ramayana is from Mahabharata. A comparison of these two legendary female characters reveal to us much about human personality as it does about human society.

The female protagonist of the two major Indian epics, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, were Sita and Draupadi respectively. They were both Sreshth naris at the time. They were both powerful women who went on to become two of the most influential ladies in Indian history. 

Draupadi and Sita were not born into their respective vanshas or lineages. Draupadi arose from king Draupada's yagna fire, while Sita was discovered while ploughing the Earth. Both of them were mighty beauties, whose beauties drew the attention of the mighty monarchs, who desired, coveted, and even kidnapped them. Duryodhana lusted after Draupadi, while Ravana kidnapped Sita. 

Great wars had been fought due to that very beauty of Sita and Draupadi. Both experienced swayamwaras, which put their valor and capabilities to the test. Both women were married at the age of 14. 

Sita and Draupadi accompanied their husbands to exile, which lasted approximately the same amount of time. The Pandavas were exiled for 13 years, including one year of living in secrecy, while Rama's exile lasted for 14 years. Throughout their marriages, both women faced challenges and hardships. Only when their own life tales came to a finish did their agony came to an end. 

They were likewise often misunderstood by others throughout their lifetimes but were lauded when their purpose was completed. Both Sita and Draupadi were directly responsible for the downfall of two powerful dynasties. The Pulastya vansh was demolished by Sita, while the Kuru vansh was demolished by Draupadi. According to Hinduism, goddess Sri Mahalakshmi manifested herself in both these women. Mahalakshmi has said to have appeared multiple times during the Dwapar yuga. It is widely assumed that Sita was the manifestation of Sri Mahalakshmi. 

When Draupadi pardoned Ashwathama near the end of the conflict, she showed her kind and spiritual side. When Sita opted to reject Rama and return to her mother, Bhoomidevi, towards the end of her life's mission, she expressed her aggressive and defiant side. 

To conclude I would say that Indian women exemplify a wide range of personality traits. She has the ability to reflect Sita's deep love and tenderness while simultaneously transforming into an angry, vengeful entity like Draupadi.
