Dark Dadagiri (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798897446285)

Bittersweet may be the flavour

And tense may be the texture,

But wherein perseverance matters-

Life is just that endeavour!

Corporate settings and migration to metropolitan cities change the way life progresses for youngsters, not just physically but emotionally too. With independence and growth joining the curve of life, it turns into a journey that feels worth every effort. However, the added mess from omnipresent troublemakers leads to murky situations.

Shivi Singh and Sam Fernandes, the young leads of this story, test the waters in one such peculiar yet relatable setting. Working in a metropolitan city and sustaining themselves well, Shivi and Sam are good friends. They have individual goals to achieve, like many of their colleagues. Self-dependence and a sense of accomplishment make young workers feel as if they're in the driver's seat. However, there is the other side of the coin which doesn't go unseen, and this tale explores exactly that-the very changing nature of interpersonal relationships amidst the suppressed emotions, constant suspicion, work pressure, and incessant nagging from the so-called authorities. The equation between Shivi and Sam constantly rebalances itself as they carry on with their work. Supportive friends at the workplace add comfort and bring delight into their lives. However, with their boss's dadagiri extending beyond the workplace, will their bond be able to hold ground when crossing swords with exploitative leadership?
