Introduction :
Nowadays, very frequently we are hearing this phrase - Love Jihad. These two words have different meanings and connotations as far as love and jihad both are concerned. But can there be some reality in this kind of jihad perpetrated by a particular religious community for unbelievable ulterior motives - read this novel written by Sunil Sinha who's penned Guruji's Ashram and I'm Not A Terrorist, all available on Amazon.in
The Story:
Rachna is a happy-go-lucky college going girl. She's friends with Julia who's an extrovert and an outrageous girl. Julia discusses all kinds of topics with Rachna under the sun. Rachna, though a reserved girl belonging to a descent family, listens her experiences with boys and how frequently she changes them after enjoying sex with them. Somewhere Rachna finds herself a tad backward and feels encouraged and instigated to have a boyfriend very soon. Incidentally, Rachna gets a latest model of a mobile phone from her parents on her birthday and a new saga of love, deceit, humiliation and torture begins as soon as she befriends with a boy on Facebook named Mohit. Who's Mohit and what's his real identity and motive tells the novel further.
Merits : The story is tightly woven by the writer who successfully unfolds the whole story in two parts: one dealing with the love affair between Rachna and Mohit till her elopement with him and the other dealing afterwards investigations. The plot is so tight that I barely found a sentence not connected and not contributing to the main story. This is the biggest plus point of this novel. Language is simple and words have been selected to the fittest. I congratulate Sunil for this acumen.
Demerits : The first one is the cover which could have been more attractive and intriguing. The second one it needs meticulous editing to make it perfect.
My Take : A unique, relevant, eyeopener for the kids and the parents both warning them for the unforeseen dangers involved with the social media intermingling. The kids are advised not to betray their parents just for the people who are in virtual world, are unknown, have multiple personalities and harbor ulterior motives. Beware!! A must read.
My Favorite Character: DSP Imran Khan - straightforward, upright, unbiased, impartial, helpful, polite and a patriot.
