Divine Architect of Ram Setu

Nal was son of Vishwakarma, the divine architect and like his father he was himself a great engineer and builder.

When Varun dev did not give way to Shri Ram to cross the sea, Shri Ram got enraged and decided to dry to ocean, Varun dev suggested Shri Ram to ask Nal to build a bridge.

Nala undertook the great task of building the bridge across the sea that can be used to cross the ocean by entire vaanar sena.

In some versions Nal and Nila were twin brothers, who as kids were very mischievous. They would throw things belonging to sages living in their jungle into water and then tease them.

Once one of the sages got enraged and cursed them that whatever they touch will not sink in the water but it will float. It was this curse that acted as a boon while building the Ram Setu.

Nila is believed to be the son of Agnidev. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
