In Abanindranath Tagore’s Khirer Putul, King’s two queens are treated unequally—Suorani enjoys luxury and affection, while Duorani suffers neglect and hardship. Before leaving on a voyage, the king asks their wishes. Suorani demands jewels and silks, but Duorani simply asks for his safe return, later requesting only a sooty-faced monkey. On return, Suorani is displeased with her gifts, but Duorani lovingly raises the monkey, who eventually restores her dignity, joy, and honor.
