In this session we meet Manu S Pillai, the well-known young author and historian. His debut book The Ivory Throne won him the 2017 Sahitya Akademi Yuva Puraskar.

He has written 2 more books Rebel Sultans and most recently The Courtesan, the Mahatma & the Italian Brahmin. 

As we await his next book, slated to release early next year, we chat with him on Rebel Sultans, a project that was supported by the Sandeep & Gitanjali Maini Foundation.
