A Chat With Udaigiri Amaravathi postgraduate in English Literature and an Author
Hello everyone. This is gopalakrishnan. And once again, I welcome you all to my swell cast. And today I have with me my guest Ms. Odegiri Amravati who is a postgraduate in English literature and also an author. She is from the city of Hyderabad and she has won the award fantastics publication award for the Best Budding Author 2021 and Emily Dickinson Award in early 2022
Ah. Thank you so much for inviting me to this well interview. Mira Gopali Krishnan. It's nice to meet you. Virtually on swell. And the question you have asked about my journey I would like to say that I was more of an occasional poet who used to pen random thoughts in the form of poems
And I am glad that you also belong to that category, that COVID did something positive for you. And I will also tell for myself that even for me, it was quite a creative period, as I discovered I can do podcasting and I can be a social media influencer during that time, which I had never tried before or I never thought was possible. So I would say, like, COVID was an eye opener. That lockdown was an eye opener in many ways

Romance and neurotica are the worlds where burdens of reality fade away and you just continue to flow in the streams of your imaginative, romantic thoughts
You. Wow, that's a great explanation. And as a reader of your book Soulful Bites, I can very well tell that you write it from your heart. Or rather, what should I say? When I read your poetries, I feel that it's not just the union of bodies you are writing, but union of as an expression of union of souls or a union of emotions. And I feel that your answer also was talking about it, that the emotions should match with desire
Yes. Gopala Krishnan. Soulful Bites is a book that throws a light on a girl's life. How she suffers in her solitude with all the desires which is which are running in her mind and heart, which are pushing the walls of heart to come out and express. Soulful Bites is a journey of a girl from pain to pleasure. In simple words
Ah, so true, Udeghuri. Actually, you know, like in our society, girls are not supposed to have desires, especially sexual desires. As we all know, a good girl is somebody who is submissive, who is shy, who just allows a man to take the lead in bedroom, but never expresses herself her need of a physical union. But it's a good thing that through the book you are expressing a girl's desire and that book has come out well also in describing that
The way he has depicted the spiritual connection of souls that are beyond physics is what I'm totally enduring since my BAC bachelor's in English literature. I'm very big fan of imagery and personal language that challenges morality and traditional love with sensual details. That is what all the metaphysics deals with. Your sensuality is thrown out beautifully through words and through poetry. And I recommend and I suggest every other budding author to go through Johnson poems
Ah, thank you for that wonderful explanation on the term metaphysical poetry. And yeah, we all have a soul within us, some people are able to connect to it, some people are trying to understand it. And I'm sure like such deep poetries help people on spiritual path to understand themselves, understand what they exactly want, then trap in the requirements of the society and mould them as per the society as literature is a way of expressing yourself and literature is also a way of understanding yourself
I didn't realize that the interviews talks already come to an end. And I'm with my last question, I would only want to say that celebrate the joy of your writing poetry. Poetry opens one's mind and lets you explore yourself. You're in your inner beautiful world. You there are no structures needed to write a poem. It is just you, your thought and its flow that drapes into a pleasant and blissful emotion when readers mind after reading
You. It has a nice interview, Udeghiri and I'm happy that you enjoyed it to such an extent that you didn't feel we have almost at the end of our interviews talks. Yeah, all good things have comes to an end. And once again, I'm happy that you gave such beautiful message to budding poets that gave them courage to pen their thoughts. And I am extremely thankful to you for being my guest in this interview
