Indi,

Just finished reading this super magnum opus of yours. Take a bow and then some, my girl, what a work of art this turned out to be...as I told you once before, if ever we wanted an IPKKND reloaded, then this would be it...and I would for good measure, also subtitle it : 'The Secrets of the Sheesh Mahal'. A fantastic read, enjoyed every bit, loved the different sections, even the myopic turn of events that took place in Sheesh Mahal. All leading up to the beautiful big picture...what a larger than life canvas you managed to imbue with such a selection of variegated colors. I am awe-struck. Even as a writer, I highly doubt I could have put together something quarter as meaningful. Something that is such a melange of our beloved show and your own vivid imagination...wow!👏

Khushi and Arnav Singh Raizada...what can I say about how interestingly you have fleshed out their characters...they have both grown so much from the start of the story. The interesting technique of weaving excerpts of the past - in no particular order except in how they shed some insight on the present - is most intriguing and gripping from a reading point of view. It helps break the monotony of the present and adds a new dimension, much like you would get if you listened to different streams of conversation.

The transition in their lives, the move into marriage and after...the physical, mental and emotional connect, the telepathic talking to one another's minds...you did not leave out a single thing. And for this I am glad. With just a few simple twists to the plot you have given us a story that I believe will last for a long, long time. Enjoyed reading it so much. And truly grateful I did not have to read this as you updated, but started after you were done...haha...I would have probably hit the roof with the impatience of it all. And yes, I do have a confession to make...I did not start off reading Without You for the longest amount of time, because I thought it was a story that started with ASR's death...and God and ASR know...I simply do not have the courage to even contemplate, leave alone read a story where he is not around or just makes flashback appearances. Thank you for proving me wrong and bringing him back to life.

They have been through so much...the coma, the past, the villains, Khushi's father's sickness, Anjali's losing the baby...amazing effort of bringing everything full circle and tiring things up neatly with a bow...just too good.

I could not skip anything including your lovely author's not at the end of each chapter and the collection of verses and quotations from the Bhagavad Gita to e.e.cummings...so loved 'Without You' for the new dimension to everything...including paagal and cute Khushi, shaatir and sexy ASR and all the rest of our beloved characters.

Thanks girl! Your lifelong fan now! Now, hurry up and give us another epic story.

Best,

Indi,

Please do PM me...as I said, lifelong fan and follower of everything you wish to write now! Haha! Agree with you - if it started at the Sheesh Mahal, that should have been the logical place to end it all too. Will wait and watch and hope Barun and Sanaya do agree to come back together atleast for the benefit of their million fans! Definitely worth the dream...in the meanwhile we always have fan fictions and you tube. Although I am more than a little upset that they have taken down all the VMs and beautiful memories of this show we had. But seriously, have yet to absolutely watch any TV show after IPK with the same or even remotely the same interest. No point...this is one show that spoilt me for anything else...

Best,

You are awesome writer
