Where is the woman in the story? After nearly two decades as a political journalist, a PhD scholar with a thesis on democratic reforms, and an author of three critically acclaimed books on politics and farmer suicides, Kota Neelima came to the uncomfortable realization that she was eclipsing herself from the narrative. . And so, while her third book Shoes of the Dead (@rupa_publications) was being hailed as one of the most successful books of political fiction and is now being made into a film, @kotaneelima decided to write her next one, The Honest Season (@penguinindia), from the point of view of a female journalist. And it was harder than she expected. . “It is traumatic to write from the perspective of a working woman in India – the whole story just can’t be put into language. Can any woman say in all honesty that she has never been discriminated against? How can one not be angry in these times?” asks Neelima, who is also an acclaimed artist. .

A list of awards, a lineage of Kuchipudi maestros and an unconventional family – sisters Yamini and Bhavana Reddy share an exceptional heritage. They have the same father, and their mothers are real sisters. What makes the family so unique is the fact that each member is one of the country’s leading Kuchipudi dancers. The elder of the two, Yamini Reddy was trained by her parents, Padma Bhushan awardees Raja Reddy and Radha Reddy, and gave her first performance at the age of three. Her dance has been acknowledged through a string of awards and she has had a number of world tours. She now runs a dance school and teaches Kuchipudi to over 100 students. Her half-sibling Bhavana Reddy is the younger daughter and disciple of Raja Reddy and his second wife Kaushalya Reddy. She began performing with her parents at the age of five for prestigious festivals as well as international tours. Bhavana has also won several national and international awards and is a trained Western singer. She has performed at the Grammy after-party in 2013 and sung a song in the grunge rock style for the Hollywood film #JoyRide3.
