A quick read, this book could be a dream Tushar had. A story that can inspire many, every person should read it specially in these tough times. If you're stranded, at a difficult point in life or lost a loved one to Covid-19, do good and adopt. A girl child is a precious thing, and I am glad someone finally said it in a beautiful way like this.

Immerse yourself in the world ‘Ardika’ a modern romance reflecting the relationships and the communication gap. It is a short read written beautifully and read in a few minutes. Kudos, Tushar Mangl. Keep writing

The relationship between Ardika and Prashant is emotional and their bond is strong. The characters are well etched and the story has a meaning to it. Adoption does benefit a lot of children and a discussion is required to better these processes.
