Loona (Punjabi epic)

Loona (Lūṇā) is a Punjabi epic verse play by Shiv Kumar Batalvi, based on the ancient legend of Puran Bhagat. In 1967 the author was given the Sahitya Akademi Award by Sahitya Akademi (India's National Academy of Letters). Shiv became the award's youngest recipient.

Though Loona is portrayed as a villain in the legend, Shiv created the epic around her agony which caused her to become a villain.
