So bizarre its got to be true. Filmstar, writer, singer, painter, candlestick maker Suchitra Krishnamoorthi dips in and out of her life, taking us on a hormone driven period, five years post marriage, divorce, fame and everything that a girl could possibly want to the present. Now a single mother suffering the crippling effects of Aphallatosis a rare mental disorder arising from lack of sex in frantic search for the happy ever after of true love and twin babies, Suchitra finds herself being pushed in all the wrong directions by shrewd analysts, horny canines, pushy gal pals and men who are either unsuitable, unwilling or just plain terrified. How can she hold on to her sanity? How can she loosen up without becoming loose? How can she shake off the vice-like grip of her primly disapproving, South Indian, moral, middle class upbringing? Aiyyo, what will Amma say? Wicked, irrepressibly funny and over-the-top, yet also vulnerable and dark, Drama Queen is a fictionalized memoir that will make you laugh, cry and look at the modern Indian woman in a whole new light.
