About this ebook

The 90s, a time when a new India sprung forth and along with it, a new kind of Indian youth. One who dared to dream and was driven by aspirations. Twenty Somethings—For Love or Ambition traces the journeys of Hrishikesh Krishnamurthy (Rishi) and Nitya Ramanna through their twenties. The dilemmas they face and the impact their choices have on their life trajectory.

It is 1992, Rishi who has just entered the first year of engineering is besotted by Nitya, a final year student. Nitya is single-minded and is more about the destination, while Rishi, is one who places greater importance on the journey. What starts as a friendship has unmistakable chemistry with sparks just about to fly and they do! Torn between a possible relationship and a potential career, Nitya chooses the latter and leaves for the US. Wheels of time turn and a chance meeting brings Rishi and Nitya face to face. Their circumstances have changed. What stands between a much-desired union and hanging on a balance is the future of Rishi’s career and Nitya’s marriage.

Set at the turn of the century, the story traverses a decade of loving, leaving, and longing in their lives and the choices these twenty-somethings make for love or ambition!

About the author

Sudhām is a poet, marketer, and storyteller. He did his schooling in Delhi before moving out in pursuit of an engineering degree to Tumkur, a town in Karnataka, and later on to Mumbai where he completed his Post Graduate Diploma in Business Administration. He has been a part of the Indian corporate world for just over two decades now. In this duration, Sudhām has tried his hand at entrepreneurship and launched himself as an author with his work Eighteen - The End of Innocence in 2015. Now back into the corporate fold having had to beat retreat from entrepreneurship, he has steadfastly kept his writing dream alive.

A keen observer of people, culture, and customs, it is the nuance that piques Sudhām’s interest. Years spent living in different cities of India at varying stages in life make fertile ground for his stories that delve into the grey areas of emotions and choices.

Twenty Somethings - For Love or Ambition is his second novel.

Sudhām lives in Suraj Kund near Delhi with his wife Surekha and daughters Mithila and Antara. He is currently associated with Luminous Power Technologies as Associate Vice President—Marketing and is championing the adoption of Solar Energy.
