Saraswathi Periyamma... those very some very kind words... I was truly touched.. thank you so so much!😳
And your discussions on Kalki's works... with Sandy Begum... Shyamal Periyamma... and (now Kalgi) has been such a pleasure/treat to read...

Now I truly am inspired to read his works that you'd recommended after chapter 1 / 2 😃

I differ with you in certain things you have pointed out Shyamala.I will give you a detailed reply later..
Saraswathi akka.

That was pure nautanki, Akka, Sivakami knew perfectly well that he would do no such thing.

She is always easily swayed by praise - from Naganandi or from anyone else - and she has a total inability to think about the other person, from his point of view, in this case Mamallan. All she thinks about is herself and, at one remove, her kalai. The real Pulikesi would have taught her a lesson, and probably executed her.

Her father is equally self-centred. He would have supped with the devil, in this case Pulkesi, to get at the secret of the Ajanta colours.

Another totally improbable character was Kamali, with all her incredible assertions about what Mamallan owed to Sivakami. And she is a charioteer's wife speaking about the Emperor's heir! All this comes about because both Mahendravarman and his son are far too familiar with their subordinates. Being kind to them is one thing, being lax is quite another.

By the second half, the novel becomes quite irritating.

Yeah narration of the story. It's in Tamil.

Sure, Akka, any time! It is always fun to argue with you!

You must read them Lashy, if you have the time. There is nothing as effective and imaginative as reading. All other forms of story telling fall short.

Btw, what is your mother tongue Lashy? You read Tamil. Don't you?😳

Sivakami is a lot like our Jodha Begum. Self righteous. I-am-always-right kind. Practical and political buddhu. She refuses to come with Mamallan from Vataapi because she is equally concerned about the other 'peedith istrees' too. And her pride is everything that matters. The difference is that it stems from her art instead of from her ancestry.
