"From 600-1100 CE, the Deccan was arguably the Subcontinent's cultural and economic centre of gravity and shaped its religious and artistic history. Its medieval contemporaries acknowledged its prominence, and understanding their world can teach us a lot about our own." - Anirudh Kanisetti on his lecture for Sarmaya Talks, which took place on 17 Feb 2023 at the Durbar Hall, Asiatic Society of Mumbai
