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


A bit blurry but it's the best picture of my dress today! Had a few yards of red silk but not enough for the umbrella skirt AND the bodice so cut up a sari pallu for the top. I was scared it might look too kurta-y but i think it's working with the jewellery and make up no? (the rest of the sari is a hot pink silk panelled skirt maxi dress which I am WAITING to wear.) #whatiworetoday
