About The Book:

Thrills is a gripping collection of stories written by Mahadev More, where each narrative explores the darker, more thrilling aspects of human behavior. The characters in these stories often behave in ways that defy humanity and stir the societal conscience.

In Chindhi, Putali, Dau, Vasana, Madhosinah, and Ek Hasya Ani Ek Khoon, the characters endure injustice, suffering, and violence, reflecting the complexities of human nature when pushed to the edge. Putali, a poor dancer, leads a life of struggle marked by violence and crime, carrying a gun, killing, and robbing in a desperate bid for survival.

In Rahasya, a lawyer gets entangled in a mystery involving his client, Mrs. Neela Deshpande, instead of solving it. Sood depicts the tragic destruction of lives by mutual differences and revenge between characters like Lakhan Singh, Raghuveer Singh, and Subasingh. Meanwhile, Niyati Ani Nyay leaves readers questioning the identity of the murderer—Jaspal Singh’s brother-in-law Mahendra Singh or Palwinder Kaur.

The collection also includes Aani Banitil Goshta, the story of a fraudster, Premshankar, who deceives people by pretending to be a government official, speaking English, and running a massive scam that leaves everyone stunned.

Mahadev More’s stories skillfully intertwine mystery, thrill, and passion, providing a deep exploration of the complexities of human emotions and behavior. Through these tales, the author captures the essence of real-life struggles, suspense, and the unexpected twists of fate.
