This is the story of Dawgpur, an Indian town that nobody can locate on a map, mostly because it's a figment of my (yvs') imagination. Dawgpur has a unique set of residents, like Chhotu- a 5-year-old who is too tall for his age. Or his father Lambu, a madari (monkey-charmer), who is too short for his age. Or Lana del Jogo, a primatologist and Chhotu's mother, who is just the right height but still sticks out like a sore thumb. The only creature that fits in the family is Raquesh Albert Mancini, a Golden Langur with a penchant for literature and high art. But things go apeshit when the Langur's dark past comes around to haunt the family. Dawgpur is a documentation of the life and times of the Dawgpurians, an enquiry into the twisted, absurd and somewhat comical nature of our own being.

Yato hastah tato drishṭih| Yato drishṭih tato manah| Yato manah tato bāvah| Yato bāvah tato rasah| "Where the hands go, the eyes follow; Where the eyes go, the mind follows; Where the mind is, there goes the expression; Where the expression is, there goes the emotion." *** If a practical mind had an embodiment, it would be Chandni. Love just wasn't her cup of tea. Or coffee. Or any other beverage. Not even when she's an experienced, expressive Bharatanatyam dancer. And all she could do was entrust her parents with her love life. What they do is find her an intriguing guy with mismatched eyes who wants nothing to do with it. He assumes he'd be ruining a girl's life for the sake of an arranged marriage. And so, she helps him escape. In a twist of fate, his attempt to repay her kindness only complicates things further. As their worlds collide in a series of chaotic and heartwarming encounters, will their initial clash drive them apart, or spark a love neither of them saw coming? Will Chandni's pragmatic heart ever find love? *** Aakash turned towards Chandni, "I'm just helping yo-" "I never asked you!" Chandni shoots back in anger at what he had done. *** A/N: More than being a good book for the reader, the best outcome I could expect would be giving a wholesome Bharatanatyam experience. *** Standalone. Mature language. NOTE: There might be certain scenarios that readers might find controversial. *** 04 / 03 / 2023 : Featured in Wattpad Outreach's "💎 Featured Stories - Best of Outreach Hidden Gems". 28 / 10 / 2025 : Featured in Chicklit's "Diverse Lit". 28 / 10 / 2025 : Featured in Chicklit's "Rom-Com". 28 / 10 / 2025 : Featured in Chicklit's "Ambassador's Picks".
