Rate this book
Zero Not Out is a coming-of-age novel that follows the transformative journey of Varun Krishna, an ambitious young man born into a modest middle-class family.

He worked hard to realize his dream of getting into one of the top IITs. During his four years of college, he would go on to make friends and mentors for life. Destiny also introduced him to Nitya Iyer, his first love, during his initial year at college. However, the cruel twists of fate intervened, leading to a heart-wrenching separation between Varun and Nitya upon their college graduation. Grief, loss, and the haunting echoes of lost love became his companions, threatening to consume him entirely.

Through sheer resilience, guided by his father's unwavering determination, Varun eventually emerges from the depths of his despair, his spirit rekindled by a newfound purpose. Driven by the haunting memory of his own struggles, he embarks on a mission to curb suicides, building a startup that aims to provide hope and support to those in their darkest moments.

The novel, riding on waves of emotion and introspection, underscores the importance of family bonds, the redemptive power of human connections, and the indomitable spirit that can rise from the ashes of despair.

Vamshi Krishna

18 books44 followers
Vamshi Krishna spends most of his time writing - code or stories. Currently living in Bengaluru, he says he is a software engineer by chance and a writer by choice. Apart from writing, he reads a lot about cricket, love, women, and failure stories. He is also a fitness enthusiast and a huge fan of MS Dhoni and Jeff Bezos.

Hailing from a small town in Telangana, he says his four-year journey at IIT-BHU is the best time of his life. He firmly believes that every student, for at least a couple of years in his early 20s, should experience hostel life. He loves to write honest and relatable fiction based on women's emotions. Before this, he authored a national bestseller 'Draupadi - India's First Daughter.' And, 'Zero Not Out' was his debut fiction novel, a love story inspired by his real-life incidents (and accidents).
