Book Review: The Rise of Sivagami (Bahubali Book 1) by Anand Neelakantan

The Rise of Sivagami by Anand Neelakantan is the first book of the Bahubali: Before the Begining trilogy which is the prequel to the blockbuster movie Bahubali. In this book, The Rise of Sivagami, Anand Neelakantan tells the epic story of the revenge of Sivagami from the King of the state of Mahismathi. The Rise of Sivagami by Anand Neelakantan is a gripping tale of power, betrayal, and revenge.

The Story: The Rise of Sivagami by Anand Neelakantan

Anand Neelakantan begins the story of The Rise of Sivagami with the history and prosperity of Mahismathi, a powerful empire at foothills of mountain Gauriparvat.  Sivagami, an orphan girl who lost her father in a wicked conspiracy involving the King, is the protagonist of the first book of the Bahubali trilogy.
 The Rise of Sivagami by Anand Neelakantan traces the audacious journey of Sivagami as she is determined to avenge her father’s death from her enemy, none other than the King. On her quest to clean the name of his father and demolish the so-called prosperous but equally dark kingdom of Mahismathi, Sivagami unveils the darkest of the secrets of King and his kingdom. With his gripping storytelling, Anand Neelakantan does the perfect justice to the epic.
The Rise of Sivagami is a tale told with an impressive control over the narrative. The pace of the story neither slackens nor offered up at the altar of world-building details. The author of The Rise of Sivagami, Anand Neelakantan, has done perfect justice to the faith placed in him by the director of Baahubali, S.S. Rajamouli. Also, Rajamouli’s foreword is enough to make you want to devour this chubby read with impatience.

Zadie smith: Book Review: Swing time

Author:  Zadie Smith Pages:  464 Price:  INR 599 Genre:  Fiction, Contemporary, Literary Fiction Swing Time  is Zadie Smith’s fifth novel and for my money her finest. A “best friend bildungsroman” in the Elena Ferrante mould, the novel tells the story of two girls growing up on the wrong side of town. Residents of neighboring housing estates in London, the pair meet at a community dance class, one (the unnamed narrator) clever and self-doubting, the other (Tracey) confident and self-destructive. As with the Italian bestseller, the talented friend is the tortured one – prematurely sexual, rebellious at school, ungoverned at home – while the less gifted is an able student, determined to make it out of the neighborhood. It gives little away to say that she does, becoming an assistant to a pop star called Aimee. It is by Aimee’s side that she travels the world, jetting from winters to summers. For its plot alone,  Swin...

It is my fault to be pretty

I am a flower, a daisy who used to live on top of a mountain. I lived among other daisies, some grass, and a few trees. Life as a daisy was very peaceful and enjoyable. Every morning I woke up and gazed at the crystal blue sky; it promised me another day. The sky would darken later on and the stars would say goodnight to me. I lived on a lonely hill, not many humans visited it. I liked it that way. I felt safe on the hill. I felt safe knowing that I had the grass, the trees, and other daisies around me. I felt safe knowing that the sky was blue and that is promised me another good day. I felt safe when the stars said goodnight to me and when the sky would darken. I liked living on the hill…correction, I loved living on the hill. One day the sky didn’t wake up crystal blue, it was One day the sky didn’t wake up crystal blue, it was gray. I saw people on the hill. The people walked over to the other daisies. I watched someone pick one of the other daisies. The human couldn’t hear her sh...
