 Vinod Joshi was honoured with the Kavishwar Dalpatram Award in 2013, and was awarded the Sahitya Gaurav Puraskar by the Gujarat Sahitya Akademi in 2015. His book of literary criticism, Nivesh, won the Ramanlal Joshi Prize, instituted by the Gujarati Sahitya Parishad. Multi-awardwinning poet and one of our foremost literary figures, Dr Vinod Joshi of Bhavnagar talks to us about the creative process of ‘Sairandhri’, his latest poetic work that has been widely acknowledged and welcomed as one of the landmark literary creations in Gujarati and talks about it’s Australia connection.

About Sairandhri
 This poem is based on Mahabharta. In Mahabharata one part of ' Virat Parva '. It's call ' Agnat Vas ' which living into hidden form and without self-sameness wherever. Here question is that What's purpose of remaining in hidden way ?
Draupadi was daughter of king Drupad.  here Vinod Joshi presented droupadi as lover of Karna. As a queen of Hastinapur Draupadi How she became Dashi during in Agnat Vas? and How she faced various problem in her life ?.  It's very interesting way of interpretation.

Loss identity :-
Here Sairandhi has not proper one identity. She played vital roll in Mahabharata without one certain identity. She loss her identity with sacrifice of body for five male pandavas. It is  happening in our present life also.  In Mahabharta She don't raise question for her identity who has not freedom to express own desire. She can't protect herself with praise. In the poem she was powerful woman described by him. This poem explain about woman no one any men. He explain a vital role of woman.
