Set in contemporary Delhi, Mother India tells us the story of two young characters plodding away to make a decent living despite a middling education: Mayank is employed in a dingy right-wing content creator’s basement studio; Nisha works as a salesgirl for a very expensive Japanese chocolate at a shop in a mall. When Mayank discovers Nisha beaming off her Instagram like a beacon, he is smitten, and the video he devises for his studio ends up having unexpected consequences for everyone.
Sparkling and unexpected, Prayaag Akbar’s new novel brilliantly captures what it means to be young and alive in today’s India.
