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


Sir Bruntonious Rex and Lady Olga da Polga turn two today. I've also taken to calling them Brandon and Brenda (full marks if you recognise the reference). Their mum was called Nancy, who her owner referred to as Nency so when I'm talking about the Terrible Twins as a collective, I call them my Nency Cats. So many names! What do you call your cats that aren't their "official" names? #catsagram #happybirthday #indiancatsofinstagram
