What happens when historical and fictional worlds collide? Sometimes, the result can be a glorious work of art that’s inspirational, insightful and entertaining all at once – like Kalki Krishnamurthy’s Ponniyin Selvan. How did Kalki make even his imaginary characters seem so believable? What marvellous objects and settings from the Chola period can we still see today? Which historical events inspired Kalki to spin his own saga? Join us for an engaging online session as we dive into the stories from south Indian history that formed the foundations of Ponniyin Selvan. 

This online workshop is Free for all Storytrails members.

Testimonial

If you love stories, history and walking you will love this tour. A wonderful relaxed blend of stories, gossip and history matched to easily walkable locations in Pondicherry White Town.

Baljit

The trail provided a sneak peek into the importance of gold in Indian culture. A must do! We can’t wait to do the other StoryTrails!

Said MCG

The small eateries were carefully chosen, the stories were wonderful. We loved it so much we’re coming back for the other tours.

The best and coolest way to get fit!! The stories made the already awesome stretch on the beach even more so. Never enjoyed history before this ..!

Aravind R

What an honour, and pleasure, to be guests in a Bharathanatyam dancer’s house. And see the artist dancing in front of us. And listen to an excellent story teller describing the sacred origin of the dance, the infinite nuances of the performer’s gestures, with their evident or hidden significances. I’ll keep in my memory the beauty of that experience.
