ABOUT THE BOOK
Mumbai was almost submerged on the fatal noon of 26 July 2005,
when the merciless downpour and cloudburst had spread utter
darkness and horror in the heart of the city. River Mithi was
inundated, and the sea was furious. At this hour of torturous gloom,
Rohzin begins declaring in the first line that it was the last day in the life
of two lovers, Asrar and Hina.
The novel's protagonist, Asrar, comes to Mumbai, and through his eyes
the author describes the hitherto-unknown aspects of Mumbai, unseen
colours and unseen secrets of the city's underbelly.
The love story of Asar and Hina begins abruptly and ends tragically. It is
love at first sight which takes place in the premises of Haji Ali Dargah.
The arc of the novel studies various aspects of human emotions,
especially love, longing and sexuality as sublime expressions. The
emotions are examined, so is love as well as the absence of it, through a
gamut of characters and their interrelated lives: Asrar's relationship with
his teacher, Ms Jamila, a prostitute named Shanti and, later, with Hina;
Hina's classmate Vidhi's relations with her lover and others; Hina's father
Yusuf's love for Aymal; Vanu's indulgence in prostitutes. Rohzin dwells on
the plane of an imagination that takes readers on a unique journey
across the city of Mumbai, a highly intriguing character in its own right.
