My latest book is The One Who Swam With The Fishes.

"A mesmerizing account of the well-known story of Matsyagandha ... and her transformation from fisherman’s daughter to Satyavati, Santanu’s royal consort and the Mother/Progenitor of the Kuru clan." - Hindustan Times

"Themes of fate, morality and power overlay a subtle and essential feminism to make this lyrical book a must-read. If this is Madhavan’s first book in the Girls from the Mahabharata series, there is much to look forward to in the months to come." - Open Magazine

"A gleeful dollop of Blytonian magic ... Reddy Madhavan is also able to tackle some fairly sensitive subjects such as identity, the love of and karmic ties with parents, adoption, the first sexual encounter, loneliness, and my favourite, feminist rage." - Scroll

Today in Photo


Many moons ago, I interviewed Candace Bushnell in Jaipur and was SHOCKED, SHOCKED, that she was wearing sneakers with her dress. How not Carrie, I thought to myself. However Candace/Carrie was way ahead of the trend and here we are in 2017 wearing sneakers with everything and can I just say it is SUCH a relief that fashion has decided women can be comfortable now? Not that I ever dressed uncomfortably but it's nice to be both stylish and not be dying to take off your shoes, you know? So here are my new summer kicks: canvas slip ons and "millennial pink" sneakers, both cheap as anything and also a delight. You will see me wearing these everywhere now. #athleisure #sneakers #likeoneofthoseaunties
