Wishing you and your family a very Happy, blessed, and joyous Diwali! May the festival of lights bring abundant happiness, good health, peace, and prosperity into your homes. This is such a special time of year to pause, celebrate cherished traditions, and share laughter and warmth with the people who matter most.
Amidst the festive celebrations, so many of you have kindly reached out over messages asking about my next book: "When can we read the new story?" Seeing your excitement and love brings a huge smile to my face every single day. I want to reassure you that work is actively underway. If there has been a slight delay, it is simply because this story has so much emotional depth, heartfelt tension, and unspoken longing. A story with this kind of emotional weight deserves patience so every scene resonates deeply with you.
What is coming next is filled with high-intensity romance—those unforgettable moments when glances linger across a crowded room, quiet touches say what words cannot, and two people find themselves drawn together by a powerful, undeniable connection.
"Some stories take time because their emotions are so deep. When two hearts are drawn together against all odds, the connection stays with you long after the final page."
I also have another wonderful piece of news to share during this festive week. For everyone who loves audiobooks, we are officially producing the multi-voice audio edition of The Approved Affair! Bringing the emotional journeys of Aarti, Aditya, and Girish into the spoken world has been an incredible experience, and I cannot wait for you to experience it through your headphones.
Looking ahead, I have also been dreaming about exploring a new horizon. I am planning to write an Indian historical romance in the future—grand palaces, royal court secrets, and sweeping, passionate love stories from our rich past. Do you have a favorite historical era or romantic backdrop you would love to read about? If you have an idea or wish, please feel free to drop me a message on Instagram or email me. I would love to hear your thoughts!
May your Diwali celebrations be sweet, radiant, and full of blessings. And if you are looking for a captivating read during the festive holidays, you can always pick up The Approved Affair.
