Abstract : Kavita Kane’s novel Menaka’s Choice presents a feminist reinterpretation of the celestial apsara Menaka, reimagining her beyond the conventional patriarchal portrayal as merely a seductress sent to disrupt Vishwamitra’s penance. Traditionally reduced to a tool of divine manipulation, Menaka has been viewed through a lens that prioritizes her beauty while neglecting her autonomy and personal struggles. Kane challenges this limited representation by depicting Menaka as a complex individual with agency, desires, and emotional depth. This paper explores how Kane recons

This paper throws light on the denial of one’s own right based on patriarchal impositions levied on women of all ages. Even epic heroines have been voiceless because of the social conventions set by the male dominated society. The prolific writer Kavita Kane has skillfully portrayed the intricate details of the Indian Epics The Ramayana and The Mahabharata by retelling the story from perspectives of unvoiced characters like Urmila, Menaka, Surpanaka and Satyavati.

Mythologies are primarily male-centered stories representing, upholding, and idealizing patriarchal norms and aspirations. Patriarchy regulates and controls women's sexuality through mythological stories. Females are frequently treated as property to be transferred or enjoyed by men. The objectification of women's bodies is a recurrent issue in mythologies throughout the world, including India. In Indian mythology, Apsaras, the eternal seductresses of Indra's court, are clear references to female objectification.
