Why was Indra crowned the King of the Indian mythological pantheon in spite of his bad negotiation skills? What happened when Hanuman went head-to-head with a Rakshasa in a negotiation dual? What happened when Devdutt himself was stuck in a negotiation pickle? Catch all this and more in this episode of The Devdutt Pattanaik Show podcast! Don’t forget to tune in every morning from 6 am to 8 am and catch the repeat from 9 am to 11 am and again at 1 pm to 3 pm every Sunday only on Radio Mirchi!
