Indian author Recommendation

Hey, Am new to the forum though

I recently read The god of small things by Arundhati Roy it is a really nice book set in Kerala with a indian backdrop. There are other nice ones like:
-Fasting and feasting- Anita Desai
- Cinnamon Gardens-Shyam Selvadurai
- Family Matters- Rohinton Mistry
- A fine balance- Rohinton Mistry
- Sister of my heart - Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni

Try:

A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth, It's awesome!!!

Thanks but read white tiger yesterday

it was not very good it was just fine.

I am going to recommend two of Thrity Umrigar's books. For me her writing was very accessible, and I did not at all feel bored reading them due to the engaging characters she has in her books. The second one I recommended is more depressing, just a bit of an FYI.

Bombay Time
The Space Between Us

The Calcutta Chromosome - Amitav Ghosh

You should try "The Three Mistakes of My Life" and "One Night @ The Call Centre" by Chetan Bhagat.
