Krushnavedh literally means wait for Shree krishna. Its a story of 3 individuals Radhika, Pendya and Kubja. All are connected with Lord Krishna, all are devoted to Krishna. All 3 suffered various kinds of pain in life, e.g. Radhika cant become mother, Pendya, a brilliant boy was abandoned by parents, his 1 leg is weak, Kubja who is ugly and hunch back woman. All 3 loves krishna very much, so much so that, they dont want him to go away from them. However, they finally learnt that, love is not about restricting it to physical presence of a person, its a devotion towards person irrespective of presence.
The point here is love has no age and no definition, it can be love of mother, friend, devotion or anything which is pure. I really appreciate G.N.Dandekar's imagination , what a fantastic writer. I would definitely recommend this to everyone, however, one need to read it only after certain age, say after 28-30 or one can read it after reading huge number of books and they feel they are started to know this world much better, an experienced reader. You will love how beautifully he captured every emotion.

All about three persons and who love delicately to Krisha.. Radha, Pendya and Kubja.. Cleared many of my assumptions about these personalities..
