About this book

This is a passionate tale of self-effacing and self-sacrificing love of Suraj Mukhi for her husband, Nagendra; innocent and pure love of Kunda Nandani for Nagendra; lust of Debendra for Kunda Nandani; undying love of Nagendra for Suraj Mukhi clouded by his infatuation for Kunda Nandani.
