Literature has always been a source of joy and inspiration for us at City of Women and we wanted to find a way to express that love. We bring to you a new kind of episode in which we talk to and hear from authors about certain moments in their books that explore how women inhabit the cities they live in.
In this episode we hear from Shrayana Bhattacharya, author of Desperately Seeking Shah Rukh about fights, friendship and the fandom of Shah Rukh.
This episode was edited and produced by Radhika Viswanathan. Our Lead Producer is Menaka Raman. Our Sound producer is Yashwanth Vinay. Our Associate Producer is Ashrita Achar. City of Women is executive produced, hosted, and written by Samyuktha Varma and Radhika Viswanathan. City of Women is a Vaaka Media production.

Cadets
Freezing water, bathrooms from hell and bras designed to torture. Being a part of the National Cadet Corps isn’t fun and games. But there’s also camaraderie, exploration and certain kind of freedom. Two former cadets reminisce (and sing) about their NCC days.
Thank you to Abhirami and Swarna for recording this conversation.

Maradona
For some women, their world is confined to what lies inside the four walls of their home and their dreams to what others tell them they can and cannot do. A son looks back on his mother’s love for sport and the moment it found expression in a neighbour’s home, and the victories and defeats which became a metaphor for her own unsung talents and missed opportunities.
Thanks to Ayan Biswas for sharing his story with us.
