In this delightful romantic novel Mr. Panwar writes with such intensity that it evokes the reader’s own desires. It is a story of a Hindu boy who accidentally falls with his bicycle on a Muslim girl and falls in love with her. The girl reciprocates with equal passion. But as is mostly the case in such teenage love affairs, they fail to get their parents’ approval because of the differing religious backgrounds. The story unfolds with the severe trials that they have to face, loss of parental support and separation for no fault of theirs. It is also a story of intrinsic human goodness, and the spirit of survival. Will they be reunited? Will true love win? A saga of love, pain, hope, faith, compassion, deceit, and much more… Above all, a story of India’s unity in diversity, and the spirit of oneness, transcending differences in religion, culture and background.
