Two women. Two very different women with their shades of nobility and evil, success and failure, dreams and aspirations, joy and sorrow, revenge and sacrifice, fear and doubt transforming the very essence of life itself. Anu and Priya struggle to prove themselves to the world, to realize their worth in a world of deceit, hypocrisy and prejudice. Sometimes, fact is stranger than fiction. The world of Anu and Priya run on similar lines where the author has aspired to make a backdrop that makes the reader wonder whether he is treading into fiction or reality. Such is the power of the plot. This said, it must be pointed out that this novel is a work of pure fiction. Any resemblance to any place, thing or person living or dead is mere coincidental.
