The story starts with Arpita. Her mom lives in Chandigarh. She was in love with Rehan but they split due to sone issues.
Rehan who is the best in his work starts showing signs of decline as he struggles to cope up with his personal life which affects his professional life as well.
Prior to meeting Arpita, he was in love with Lavanya who splits up and eventually passes away due to Breast Cancer.
Anirudh was Rehan’s Manager. He tries his best to help him out.
This novel is based on two timelines - Story on past and present.
Arpita visits Kasol for trekking. She Meets Karan. Rehan also travels to address his issues for a retreat meets Namrata. Here, both Rehan and Arpita bump into each other. Destiny?
I liked the Title of chapters which were good and intriguing too. One of them “Let us tell lie about ourselves” followed by “Until we find the truth about everything”
Expressions get really powerful in “There is no place like home”
Ali, a colleague of Arpita comes in between the love life. Was Arpita cheating on Rehan going with Ali?
Dr Meera - Counsellor of Rehan. She tried her best to keep him in good spirit.
Rahul - Janitor. Helps Rehan and eventually gets fired for doing so. Why?
Then there is a 3-page beautiful poem.
Who does Rehan end up with?
Emotions were captured so well in the entire book. Mental illness isn’t an illness or an issue if you are willing to open up and discuss it which will help you get a solution . It is also the need of the hour since these days, we witness lot of them committing suicide which could be avoided. GOI and the respective State Governments are doing their best by establishing helplines and there are also many NGOs which is into this yeoman service of giving online counselling/consultation.
Open up. That is all is required.
We are born to live and conquer and not to be a loser and take our own lives.
