The Hotel Lalith Ashok was the venue for the Bangalore Literature festival 2018. The editors of the Best Asian Stories 2017 were allotted the slot (7 to 7:30 pm in the Red Couch venue) on the first day, 27th Oct 2018.
The interesting panel discussion was moderated by Monideepa Sahu. The participants were Shashi Seshpande, Poilee Sengupta, Usha KR and your truly. I was so thrilled to share stage with the eminent short story writers. Here are some photographs and the link to the YouTube video posted by the BLF team.
