Devdas
This is the story of Devdas and Paro, childhood sweethearts who are torn apart when Devdas is sent away to Calcutta by his father, the local zamindar.
The Dialogue of Devdas
Devdas is the title of a 1920s novella by the farmed Bengali writer saratchandra chatterjee. It became so popular that 15 film versions were made in various Indian Languages and periods. Bimal Roy's 1955 film is considered the finest as it sensitively tells the tragic love story between Devdas (Dilip Kumar), the son of Brahmin landlord Aand Parvati (suchita sen) his childhood sweetheart. Caste and class difference keep the lovers apart. Parvati is married of to a rich older man and devdas, who allows Chandramukhi (Vijayanthimala), a selfless prostitute, to help him at first, but ultimately finding no meaning to life, he takes to drink. The Dialogue of Devdas will be presented in a four language format: Hindi, Urdu, Romanised Hindi, Urdu and English translation. Forewords by Bimal Roy's Family and extensive commentary are also featured.

While walking down the aisle and looking into Fadis eyes, she saw neither love nor compassionand she ran. Happy for a respite, she travels to India for her friend Zaaras wedding. Its a country shes longed to visit, and Zaaras wedding gives her the perfect escape. Here, Danya, receives the opportunity to put her life in perspective, and it leads her to something that has eluded her until nowtrue love. A story about the simplicity of love, My Devdas shows how love can be born out of the most unusual circumstances and is still the most treasured gift in the world.
Devdas and other Stories
The classic, heart-touching story of unrequited love of a man's fall from grace and his tragic end offers an insightful and compassionate portral of men and women in love. Devdas, written in early decades of the twentieth century, still captivates readers, and has been filmed several times - a testament to endurance and class. One of Sarat Chandra Chatterjee's finest novels, it reveals the best there is in Indian romantic literature. The abridged translation of Devdas, Srikanta and six of Sarat Chandra's short stories brings to English readers a careful selection of writer's best.
The Corporate Devdas
Yes, I am the corporate Devdas, rather I have become one due to the many years and countless hours of work that I have put in for my own self improvement and becoming the best in the trade. The matter of fact is that all of us take part in so many roles in our own lives that usually we loose count of them but it is those roles that we take the most which start to shape the way we behave and live even in a personal or professional life. This book is my side of the story on what I have become and what has brought me to be the way I am. You can call it my personal autobiography for my future self. But then why publish this you say? Its simple, this book will also act as a beacon of hope and light for those who toil like I do, to help them find the light & move on.

Summer of 99
Life sometimes takes us through the most unexpected twists and turns. From what seemed like the end for a young man who got his heart broken in a sleepy town in Dehradun, life shows him a new beginning. Arriving in Mumbai, he ends up meeting a girl from a fishermen’s hamlet, from where a new relationship blossoms; for her, the joy of first love, while for him, like another page he’s turned… yet another goodbye he’s uttered like many times before in his life. The two eventually part ways. Years later, the man returns to Mumbai, after years of hard work and climbing up the social and financial ladder, for a bit of rest, recreation and soul searching. Here, a chance encounter with a tiny angel brings him back to the shores of his long-lost love. Written with a blend of romanticism, erotica and melodic literature, the narrative of this story is unlike anything you’ve read before…
