It is the eighteenth century.
Emperor Aurangzeb has fallen, the Mughal Empire is a shadow of its former
self, and India is rife with civil war. In these times of gardi, you’d have
to be a lion to win power, and a wolf to keep it. When the beautiful Savitri,
the only daughter of the Chief Minister of Purana Zilla, marries into a rich
merchant household in Ranipur, she becomes Anamika. Her future seems
assured—she is to bear her loving husband Abhi many children, eventually
becoming the lady of the house and perpetuating the family’s fortunes. But a
tragic accident on their wedding day renders Abhi paraplegic, seemingly
dooming their perfect future. Anamika still finds bliss in her love for her
husband, but her in-laws’ unfulfilled dreams of progeny threaten to consume
and destroy her. But into her life enters Abdul—the illegitimate son of Shah
Ahmad Khan, locked in a deadly war with his brother Hassan for the throne.
This powerful, magnetic stranger upsets the balance of her everyday life,
thrusting both Anamika and Abhi into a newfound world of intoxicating
freedom, conflicting desires and deadly deceit. Crossing paths with the
enigmatic courtesan-turned-bodyguard Nadya, the motherly Niloufer, the
spirited young warrior princess Sonal, and a wide and motley cast of
soldiers, assassins, courtesans, eunuchs, princes and queens, Anamika must
make bold choices and adopt many names for the sake of both desire and
survival.
