Product Description
The first literary adaptation of Sharatchandra's most enduring tragedy MY NAME IS NOT DEVDAS takes you into the unforgiving ideologically divided landscape of Delhi's college campuses.
What if Dev was a woke Marxist? What if Paro was an entrepreneurial capitalist? What if Chandramukhi was the daughter of a jailed separatist?
This is the Information Age - where we are absolute in our beliefs. This is the world of My Name Is Not Devdas. This is the world Devdas Paro and Chandramukhi belong to. It is set in Delhi's politically-charged college campuses that resemble warzones affecting relationships that survive on a mutual adherence to 'isms'. In a world such as this where the calls of their belief systems overwhelm their everyday lives can their relationships survive?
This is equal parts each the story of Devdas Paro and Chandramukhi and their struggle to overcome identity in the pursuit of happiness... do they really stand a chance?
