It was great, fabulous, and every other positive verbs whichever you like to apply. I completed the title in one week.
I know it is fiction, but it was so convincing that I googled almost every character.
It is one of the best from Gujarati literature.

One of the best books written by Ashwini Bhatt. A very gripping story with jaw dropping description of beauty of Narmada and Bhedaghat. Amazing story telling.

અદ્ભુત !! નવલકથા વાંચન દરમિયાન લાગ્યું કે સેજલસિંહ, રાજેશ્વરી દેવી, સેના ને જાણે રૂબરૂ મળી ને આવ્યા હોઈએ એવો anubhav થયો ! રોમાંચક !
