Anbe Aaramuthe

Thi. Janakiraman is one of the pioneers of Tamil novel. Anbe Aaramuthe can be considered as the most mainstream of his novels. Not just because it was written as a series in a magazine but as it has dramatic turn of events. Anandasami runs away right on his marriage day. After three decades wandering around as a monk he returns to the same groom. Two people turned away from a marriage reunite as parents to a daughter not born to them. Though written before half a century the story is as contemporary as any.
