Kamatham Mallikarjuna Rao

No doubt it is very interesting novel. We do not find the time how it passed once we start reading the book. But still I doubt, whether the habits and traditions were being followed really are based on any evidences mentioned in any puranas, smritis etc to back up the faith to believe in toto. For example, when Draupadi was in Kaurava court, getting sarees from the air is a myth but the author says that Draupadi by threatening the Kauravas to take vengeance by sending the armies from Yadav, panchala countries, averted the incident. It appears reasonable. And one more interesting thing is the the male female relations appear to be very loose. Sex and male dominance are predominant factors throughout the novel. Was it really a fact that the sex is so much important and a factor in daily life. Dhritarastra's children from housemaids, sex with housemaids with the knowledge of their legitimate wives appear to be normal in that context but will it not show the primitiveness of the tribe and more of an animal nature!!!. No, we can not compare with animals since they mate in certain seasons and in certain times when the females required to be impregnated ., during heating period. Though no divinity is attributed to the events- true also - the customs and habits mentioned in the novel has any basis?. I request the respected writer to clarify the issue. - Thank you
