A Drop of You - Krishna Chettri - Book Review


A poignant tale of love, author Krishna Chhetri's book revolves around Karma, Ghazal and Diana. They are three very different people enveloped with mystic, deep emotional love.


The book is peppered with plenty of poems and shayaris making it almost a poetic narrative with each turn of page reflecting deep emotions of the characters.


A Drop of You explores loves in its bare and soulistic form.
Karma loves Ghazal, and Diana loves Karma, who is her best friend.
They all meet at a bar in CP, Ghazal being introduced by a common friend Saddah and life is never the same again for them.
Through poetry the narrative is enriched and expressions enhanced.

The way there love unravels, its almost a cosmic intervention, a twist of fate. For some, the way Karma pursues Ghazal with all the excitement of overwhelming love can be too much to handle. But would work for die hard romantics.

At the underlying theme of the story is a question about eternal love. Is it real or just a make-believe stuff.
The book has a simple story but strikes a powerful chord with the reader.

Epitome of Equality

First of all This is not to demean any religion.. I am a Hindu by birth, but yes I respect all religions .I offer my daily prayers , fast on holy days , but there was something that was disturbing me . God as per me was a Friend, someone who was by my side always , someone who was a dear friend , but this is not what everyone else thought , for others he was the Judge who gives his verdict always and punishes anyone and everyone . Walk into any temple and you would see , if you have money , you will be treated in a way as if you are the ONLY disciple of the God . I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...

Indian Real Estate in 2024: Resilient, sustainable, and ready for tomorrow

Indian real estate in 2024 proved its mettle, balancing global uncertainties with innovation, sustainability, and adaptability. From smart infrastructure to hybrid workspaces, the sector evolved alongside changing consumer expectations. Looking ahead to 2025, cautious optimism prevails, with tech-driven transformations, urban regeneration, and community-focused projects promising a brighter future for developers, investors, and homeowners alike. How did Indian Real Estate fare in 2024? If someone had told me a decade ago that I’d witness buildings go from brick-and-mortar dreams to sustainable, smart havens, I’d have laughed. But here we are in 2024, a year that saw India’s real estate sector withstand the weight of inflation, global economic jitters, and shifting lifestyles. From green-certified luxury homes to hybrid workspaces in buzzing metros, 2024 wasn’t just about building properties—it was about building resilience, sustainability, and a roadmap for 2025. Shall we take a closer...

When family hurts: A tale of love, loss, and liberation

In the shadow of the Jasmine tree: Breaking free from a toxic family In the decaying splendour of Eyrevale Manor, Elara battles toxic parents, rekindles forbidden love, and questions whether she can escape the chains of her upbringing. Under a canopy of jasmine, secrets are shared, hearts break, and truths unravel. Set in an enchanting town, this story examines love, loss, and the painful pursuit of self-discovery. What happens when home feels like a battleground? No one warns you how heavy a homecoming can feel when the word home means nothing to you. If there is one universal truth, it is this: not all homes are sanctuaries. For some, they are labyrinths of unspoken grudges, passive-aggressive remarks, and familial obligations wrapped in barbed wire. My story, dear reader, begins in the sweltering heat of Eyrevale—a coastal town so humid it could curdle your very thoughts. And for me, Eyrevale wasn’t just oppressive because of its climate. No, it was the family home that truly choke...
