Love scorched the heavens--and when it was lost, it turned everything to ashes... He was no hero. He didn't rescue his beloved from the wreckage of a broken world or fight a war to win her hand. But he was sweet, sensitive and loved. Fiercely. By his wife and by the dancing girl. They loved him, and lost him, in turns. Yet to the bitter end, they went on loving him. Swept away by breathtaking passion and irresistible desire, Kannagi, the wife, and Madhavi, the dancing girl, are drawn into the depths of love and despair. Armed only with fading hope, they come to realize that exquisite pleasure often demands an unbearable price. This is the story of two women caught in a love triangle shaped by fate--one that gave rise to a legend that has endured for centuries. Inspired by the Silapathikaram, Ilango Adigal's timeless Tamil classic, Anuja Chandramouli's bold reimagining offers a stirring double portrait of romance that's unforgettably tender and unrelentingly tragic.
