DADLO
‘DADLO’ is forever
Once upon a time, there was a king and there was a queen. At the end of the story, they live happily ever after. But, our Dadlo is not such kind of king. He neither has a queen nor an empire. All he possesses is his mind and his dream. He must cross many hurdles to achieve that dream.
He wasn’t planning to shed even a single drop of blood by his perfect and harmless plan. Despite that many have lost their lives. In this game of snake and ladder, Peter Fernandez won. His roots and backstory are very interesting.
Dadlo never losses, never fears anything, and never dies. Dadlo is forever.
Actor & lyricist Dilip Rawal describes DADLO like this: It is really a challenging job to write an episodic novel and grab the attention of readers. And by writing the novel ‘Dadlo’, Praful Shah has succeeded in that challenge with flying colors. It is my frank and honest opinion about this novel, that we can put Praful Shah in the same category of thriller writers like Ashwini Bhatt, Harkishan Maheta, and Agatha Christie, because ‘Dadlo’ is indeed such a solid novel… Peter Fernandez alias Dadlo, despite being an antihero, is a real hero. A hero without heroin! A hero that doesn’t need heroin! It appeals to both the class and the mass. After a long time, such an interesting episodic novel has been written in this genre. It definitely deserves a warm welcome…‘Dadlo’ fits into the definition of a perfect thriller… A thriller web series running on the pages

‘Dadlo’ is one of the most intriguing thriller novel, I have read till date. There are various twists and turns and each one is unpredictable as novel’s protagonist Peter Fernandez alias ‘Dadlo’.
Being a journalist, Prafull Shah blends meticulous research skills, current affairs knowledge and human psychology with his unique imagination in thrilling novel. He even includes national lockdown happened during Covid months in the story and how his characters find a way in to national health crisis is interesting to visualise. It makes ‘Dadlo’s characters more real.
This is my first episodic novel which I read in newspaper, every morning I was waiting for ‘Mumbai Samachar’ only to read what are the next moves of Peter and how story unfolds.
It is not exaggeration but I would say ‘Dadlo’ is total web Series material, One can visualise each and every scene with writer’s powerful words.
Looking forward for Web Series and Dadlo Part -2.

Excellent Thriller by Praful Shah. At the end of every chapter, excitement is always there "what next".
I am sure when a film or web series will be made from this story, audience will sit on the edge of their seat till the end. Typical mentality to criticize kids, instead of encouraging them creates "DADLO" in our society. Main character Peter has sharp mind, master in Planning and is quick in execution.
Must read book from Praful Shah.

A great and well written novel from a genius and experience writer. The protagonist will be a memorable character for the readers. It has everything which makes a novel worthy for time and money. Must read it before it comes on screen as a web series!

I LOVE DADLO
Yes, DADLO is awesome thriller which kept me hooked every moment. Many characters, umpteen numbers of happening and turn-twist. Hero Peter's character is author's fantastic work. It is superbly supported by mini army of characters.
I finished reading in two days but had to reshuffle my schedule.
Go for it.
