The Hidden Hindu

Nice

The product was good.

I loved the book. It is a fiction book that ties a lot of mythological aspects about Hinduism. The writing style of Mr Akshat Gupta is very engaging and it is such that even a non-fiction reader will love this book. It is a good fun book to read to give you mind a tour of imagination and history. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the first book and will be buying the second one for sure. It is a trilogy and you would want to stick to the story because is well written. All the characterizations are so good that I could see the story happening in front of me and I loved the ending and last couple of chapters. Totally hooked! Must buy and a must read!

The author is beating around the bush with one liner understanding of chiranjeevis. Feels like picking up random instagram shorts of knowledge of mythological stories and trying to force fit into a fiction expecting a “wow” . It may run good with folks who have never read the vedas or Mahabharata or Ramayana and that definitely defines a Lakh copies sold . The depiction of Aghori is so immature and incorrectly portrayed . Work of fiction for sure . Am disappointed coz may be I expected a lot from this book by reading the blurb. My bad !!!

Completely amazing story! Since Hindu mythology is so vast and has elements of rebirth and immortality, it gives creative minds amazing opportunity to utilize the myths, the prophecies, the legends, for the sake of story telling. The hidden hindu is based on the concept of the seven immortals in Hinduism who are believed to be alive even after the end of the epoch (yug) they were born in. I have long been fascinated by the idea of the last avatar of Vishnu- Kalki who is prophesied to descend on the earth at the end of Kali yuga. So, when I read the blurb, I was intrigued. The book definitely has a unique concept of blending science fiction with mythology, of finding a balance between past and present, mortality and immortality and this is why I really appreciated this book for its originality and story telling. The narration is the key when it comes to books that deal with such complicated themes and this book lacked the gripping narration it deserved. It reads like diary entries or even a play where characters just keep saying their lines without any descriptions of their body language, their surroundings, that can give us an insight into their motivations and explain what drives them for the reader to be able to connect with them and the story. The plot, like I said, is engaging and the book ends on an exciting note where you can't help but ask for more. Kudos to the author for being able to create a world that even though isn't perfect by any means, still manages to lure you in. I have the orijinal copy personally signed by the author akshat sir for me. Eagerly waiting for the next part.❤

The best book to know about our ancient history
