Mahakavi Kalidas took a decision to immortalize the story of a victim of fate - Shakuntala in his iconic play "Abhignanashakuntalam" or The Recognition of Shakuntala. A side story in the vast epic ocean called Mahabarata, the story of Shakuntala got lost in between the pages soaked in blood and politics. But thanks to Kalidas's work, I found one of the main inspirations for my new book that got released last week, "The Sunshine to my Shadow Lover". The core plot of the play involved the question of what would happen if your loved one forgot you existed. In many ways, I could say that my lead lady Sanjana is kind of the anti-thesis to Shakuntala as she attempts to fight with everything she has to win back her Surya. Find out more about the story behind the little romantic story that I cooked up in the updates to follow in the next couple of weeks. Please do buy the book from the link below, kindly read, share, recommend and give me a review. Till then, my name is Karthik Sreeram Kannan and I have a story to tell. 😄
