Love scorched the heavens and when it was lost, it turned everything to ashes…
He was no hero. He was not one to rescue his loved one by hauling her back from the blazing wreckage of a broken world or by fighting a war to win her hand. But he was sweet and sensitive. And loved. Fiercely. By his wife and the dancing girl. They loved him and lost him in turns. But to the bitter end, they went on loving him.
Swept away on the tides of breathtaking passion and delicious desire, Kannagi, the wife, and Madhavi, the dancing girl, find themselves plummeting to the unforgiving depths of love and despair, armed only with futile hope and the bleakly dawning realization that exquisite pleasure must be paid for with endless pain. This is the story of two women and the love triangle destiny enmeshed them in which spawned an epic saga that has lasted centuries.

Inspired by the Silapathikaram, Ilango Adigal’s timeless Tamil classic, Anuja Chandramouli’s bold new take delivers a double dose of romance that is unforgettably tender and unrelentingly tragic.
