Neelakshi

"A process of transition always gets opposed at first. A little resistance, a little ignorance but eventually, masses start to understand its significance and start to accept it."
*
Trained secretly by her father General Agendra, the only woman warrior, Neelakshi cradles only one dream - to join the armed forces of the state of Nandagarh - a seemingly impossible dream, since women are barred from entering the forces.

A sudden rescue of prince Ranajay at her hands, lands her into the palace and amidst all the chaos that comes with being an only woman guard - sneering male colleagues, maze of criticisms, judgmental stares and impromptu decisions. Throw in the mix an arrogant princess, a renowned and flamboyant dancer - prince Ranajay's uncle, and Prince Ranajay himself who intentionally keeps running into her and her heart, navigating through which Neelakshi manages to live her dream.

But when alarming events creep up in the palace, seemingly planned yet unrelated assassinations shake the royal family, wars get declared upon the state, and love confessions flies, all this while Nandagarh's throne remains devoid of a king, how will Neelakshi manage to live up to her identification of being a warrior, an only woman warrior of her time?

Follow Neelakshi, the only woman warrior of her time as she fights mindsets, adversities and assassins in the India of ancient times, in a story full of conspiracies, complicated relations, and intriguing but not so common emotions.
