Journey to the Old Era (Drisana's Mahabharat #1)
Drisana has always felt like she's in the wrong place, wrong time. Why? That has no answer. After her parents death, adventure lover Drisana has been travelling around the world to find peace in her heart which has always been missing. But things take a drastic change when she comes to visit the place that her parents belonged to, where she was born. One moment she was in the basement of her parental house and the next she somehow tumble through a energy portal to 5157 years back in time in the Dwapar yug, badly injured, right on the hands of the legendary heroes of Mahabharat, Pandavs. What is she doing there? How she reached from Kaliyug to Dwapar yug and why? Many more things are running through her mind and all she got from the mortal disguise of Lord Narayan, Krishna is, "Tum etihas ka hissa nahi balki etihas rachne aayi ho. Apni vaggya ka racaita tum khud ho. " (You're not part of the history. Rather you have come to create the history. You're the writer of your own destiny.) *********** Familiar with the Mahabharat? Don't worry if you're not. I've added a short description of the original Mahabharat plot in the book for those. This story will follow the original mahabharat storyline but in a vastly different way with a lot of twists and events in my style. 😉 I'm aware Mahabharat holds religious sentiments for some and I do not INTEND to offend anyone. This is for entertainment purpose only. So don't get serious or offended please. And I apologise in advance if you feel hurt by any content of the book.Complete

The Only Kuru Princess (ON HOLD)
Suhana, our lively 18-year-old from the 21st century, enjoying her so-called "once-in-a-lifetime" trip with friends. What could go wrong? Well, cue the dramatic drumroll! The river of time takes an unexpected detour, and Suhana finds herself crash-landing into the Dwapar Yug, into the era of the Mahabharat. Now, instead of dealing with typical teen problems, she's dodging the princes of Kuru, who are throwing tantrums deadlier than a family dinner gone wrong and to top it off, they're all convinced that marrying Suhana off is the solution to world peace. In this whirlwind of ancient chaos and madness, Suhana, in a moment of desperation, turns to the only one who seems sane-Her dear lord, Shree Krishna. Turns out he's even more twisted than the whole Kuru dynasty. The playful celestial god communicates only in riddles, turning her quest for salvation into a celestial game of "Guess What I Mean." "Hey bhagwan," Suhana groans. "Haa bolo," Krishna grins, his eyes twinkling in mischief. "He's not my savior. He's the reason for all my misery," Suhana cries, while the divine lord watches amusedly as the cosmic drama unfolds.
