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


Went partying to the Asian side of Istanbul yesterday, this neighbourhood called Kadikoy which is super hip. We were at a coffee shop a few days ago & saw a little poster with DJ events at a venue that looked cool but was across the sea, so we headed there slowly. The DJ was terrible, all pretentious minimal techno but later they got out another DJ who played some nice things and we were drunk by then so we danced, caught the last ferry home and walked up such a steep hill that my thighs literally cannot move this morning. Photos from a coffee shop on the ferry station, a view of Asia from the boat and an unrelated breakfast cat. Delhi day after. #istanbul #traveldiaries #turkey #catsofistanbul
