About The Book:
This book includes two impactful stories:

1. Shubhamangal:
   The story follows Sunanda, a young woman who is forced to leave her home due to the oppressive nature of her father. His desire to control her life, including forcing her into an unwanted marriage with his boss’s son, leads Sunanda to take charge of her own destiny. She finds solace in her emotional connection with Mukunda, but their love story is complicated by national unrest. As Mukunda becomes involved in the tumultuous events surrounding the RSS riots, Sunanda must decide whether their love can survive the political upheaval and if they can have a future together.

2. Prayashchitta (Atonement):
   Sameer faces a dilemma as he is torn between his responsibilities towards his family and his love for Shirin, a Muslim woman who shares a deep respect for different religions. Sameer is initially set to marry Saroj, his mother’s choice, but his attraction to Shirin complicates matters. When Shirin is betrayed by her uncle, Sameer embarks on a journey to find her. The story unfolds with themes of love, betrayal, religious conflict, and the quest for redemption.
