Shadows of the Ganges

By Arnav Sen

Soumyadeep, an aspiring writer stuck in the corporate grind, and Sumitra, a brilliant scholar facing the pressure of an arranged marriage, found a perfect, secret world in Kolkata. But when Sumitra moved to Delhi, the physical distance created an emotional chasm that neither knew how to bridge.

Two years of silence pass until fate intervenes at the Kolkata Book Fair. The spark is still there, but the stakes are higher than ever.

Caught between the comfort of the past and the uncertainty of the future, Soumyadeep and Sumitra must decide: Do they bow to the weight of tradition and "suitable" matches? Or do they fight for a love that defies the miles, the age gaps, and the expectations of everyone around them?

Shadows of the Ganges is a deeply relatable tale of growing up, letting go, and finding your way back home to the person who holds your heart.
