Everything Will Be Alright

The novel is about two lovers cum friends Nihal and Bhoomi who leave their houses in search of fulfillment. They both have a dream. Nihal wants to win a gold medal in Mega events on an international platform; whereas Bhoomi wants to search her biological parents as she is an adopted child. Both of them meet at a certain point and fall in love and decide to get married even after the divine forces have declined for their match. Along with this runs a parallel story of Antra and Apurava who come from different backgrounds. They also fall in love with their own terms for getting married. The story is full of magic realism where God and human being, myth and reality participate collectively towards a certain direction. The attempt here is to experiment with the phrase: Everything will be alright. Actually, human beings have the tendency of saying to each other that “Don’t worry, Everything will be alright,” in our sheer exuberance, we keep on challenging the unseen forces represented by God. The question that the novel poses before the reader is “Can everything be alright?” Moreover, the intervention of God or Nature at various places is symbolic in asserting that human being should not try to behave like the Lord of Universe.
