While interacting with the audience at Hall H, Nag Ashwin spoke about Indian Gods and superheroes.

Ashwin's excitement for Indian mythology was clear when one  of the fans asked him a question about bringing mythology to the west, he said, “I just think we're on the shoulders of all this mythology and 100 years of cinema and actors, great movies. You love your superhero so much. And if you have Superman who can fly into space, we have Hanuman who can eat the sun. And then if you have Thor or a Hulk who can break a building, then we have Hanuman who can lift a mountain, or Kumbakaran who will lift the mountain.” 

A hope comes to light, for a better tomorrow.
