Sundara Kaanda: The Unsung Leaps of a Common Man

In Sundara Kaanda of the Ramayana, Hanuman takes the most perilous leap across cryptic waters... And Baabi is no less; always leaping over unmapped troubles.
In a little village called Vakkalanka in Andhra Pradesh, where he spends his childhood, Baabi comes upon various adventures. But who would have thought losing merely 15 rupees would turn his life around? His financial conflicts toss him into a life of savage waters at the mere age of thirteen. Abandoning his pleasant life back home and his first true love, he travels to Hyderabad to make a living at a time when most kids don't have to brood about anything in their carefree lives.
As he advances into becoming a youth of unyielding character, fate is never easy on him. His character, tarnished by scheming minds and friends, is driven to go far away. His stint as a drama artist earns him a great name in Bombay, yet, he remains a star-crossed man always overcome with problems. His daredevil exploits of the most direful kind test the very core of his resilience, like the ocean tests Hanuman.
And so he leaps... through the most devilish of paths with withered slippers, leaving a trail of his manful blood along his journey of grave peril.

Known by the moniker "Wordsmith" by many of his associates, Ikshvaku (Adithya Dokka) is a 20-year-old undergraduate student from Loyola Academy, Hyderabad. Also known to be a poet, the well-founded tincture of which is reflected throughout the book, he had written his inceptive work as an able author inspired by the life of his grandfather, which is de facto, "Sundara Kaanda." Notwithstanding the patent fact that the story revolves around the anecdotes of a singular man, one cannot sweep it under the dogma of biographies insofar as it merely caters to a specific audience. The book is a product deemed fit for all. Swayed by the essence of the Indian epics, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, his analogical intimations build a whole new stronghold for the core of the narrative to nestle on. Countervailing the novel effect of his self-structured jargon is the emotional crux, native to all. An ambitious kid, irrefutably, who has a long way to go!
