'Fickle Feelings Matter as Much as Morals'
The Morning Standard

Anuja Chandramouli speaks to Medha Dutta Yadav about her latest book, The Wife and the Dancing Girl, which draws from Ilango Adigal's timeless Tamil classic Silapathikaram, as it talks about the love stories of Kannagi and Madhavi

Satisfaction is every bit as likely to lead to salvation as sacrifice. And actions may have damning consequences but that is something that might be easier to live with if it has its roots in personal choice, amoral though it may be as opposed to societally enforced righteous conduct.
How different and alike are Kannagi and Madhavi?
