We might be a goddess-worshipping country but, curator Arshiya Lokhandwala feels that women have always been regarded as the second sex in the country.

“If you look at the practice of Sati, when the woman is alive she is of no value. When she gives her life for a man she immediately becomes the Sati mata or a goddess. My talk will be based on the idea of goddess worship in India and the position of woman within the Indian context with the notion of goddess,” shares Lokhandwala.
