The love story of Radha and Krishna is a central theme in Hindu mythology and represents the divine and passionate love between the goddess Radha and the god Krishna. Their love is often portrayed as a symbol of the intense and eternal bond between the devotee and the divine. Radha's love for Krishna is believed to be pure and selfless, and Krishna reciprocates this love with his playful and charismatic nature. Their love story is traditionally associated with the region of Vrindavan in India, where Krishna spent his childhood and youth.

Their love is depicted through various mythological stories, poems, and artistic representations, especially in the Bhakti movement, which emphasizes their devotion and love for the divine. The Radha-Krishna love story is a spiritual metaphor, illustrating the union of the individual soul (Atman) with the Supreme Reality (Brahman) through devotion and love.
