Bangaru Brahmam
Sat, June 21, 2025 3:30 pm, "Ravika" a poetry - Book Launch (3.0 hours)
Renuka Aola’s “Ravika” is a piercing poetry collection that challenges traditions which once barred upper-caste widows from wearing blouses. In the era of Me Too,
these poems expose how celebrated customs often mask deep-rooted violence against women.
“Ravika” is a powerful call to remember—and confront—these ongoing injustices.
Come, be part of the energy, the conversations, and the community that makes Lamakaan special.
