Ok ... first I had a rough idea of the story in mind.. (I had this story in my mind even before NJAPA - and you wouldn't believe it, but the story in my mind first for HBAS was a modern story)

>> modern one...wow , after HBAS we'll set ourself for that .

Anyway... after NJAPA didn't want to write another modern one so delved into historical...
chose the setting etc... once I knew I wanted the hero to be a mounted archer.. and that he was a Persian...that he would chase the villain at some point etc etc... I researched back to the relevant history and found this.. thus it was story then relevant research to polish it off... then story.. then some more research to back it up etc etc...

Hope that helped..

Yes sometimes I've had some things in mind, which I had to ditch since I couldn't find research to back it up...

>>don't ditch anything...😡

>>I'm glad you opted for the historical.Can't even imagine HBAS in any other way. So,you had the knowledge of it much earlier.
Hope that helped..
>>Yes, it did! Thank you so much 😃

>>But di,is it necessary to find historical evidence for everything? it's a fiction and you always write logical stuff..why can't we go for Lashy Rupantar?

No no don't set yourself for anything 😆 I was just saying when HBAS was born in my mind it was a 21st c story

Ok because you asked, I'll let you in on this secret!

You girls made me nostalgic.. ☺️

After NJAPA which was on eve teasing/stalking I wanted to write on another issue plaguing our society today - land grabbing! And that's how HBAS was born...

Two sisters whose father had passed away... had left them a large bungalow and a plot of land in a prime area in Chennai (yes after Hyderbad, I wanted to write a story in Chennai 😆)...

But the land grabbing mafia was trying all they could to get the sisters to give it up

The older worked in a company engaged to an influential businessman (who was supposed to be in love with her)

The younger was partially blind... a social worker... sisters loved each other... watched out for each other... but they were battling threats from the mafia..

She returns home from work one day to find the crime scene... her sister murdered etc.. she hears the last mobile message from her sister asking her to run... that the men were returning soon...

So, with some money/clothes/ land papers she leaves with the driver... to go to Bangalore (where her closest relatives are)

The men start chasing her...

The car chase ends up in a crash... with her stranded in the other side of Chennai... at this point, the driver ditches her saying he doesn't want to be involved in this any more...

Partially blind... midnight in some seedy Chennai road.. she doesn't know where to go... goes to the only shop to ask for help

But, rowdies in this midnight tea-side shop... see her.. beginning to behave not-too-nice... you picture it..

There's one man standing in one corner... quietly watching it all... a Don.. Basha Bhai kinda guy 😆 he stops the bullies... but, doesn't say much after that... leaves...

She follows him since he seems like the safer bet for then... and since she doesn't know where else to go..

He turns out to be owner of a small guest house..

Of course, she lives stays there for a night... which becomes 2 days... then... 2 weeks... hiding from the mafia for a while...

Turns out the Don Basha Bhai was actually working for the land mafia... and the businessman fiancee was the one who orchestrated the murder of her sister... you get the picture 😉😆

>>But di,is it necessary to find historical evidence for everything? it's a fiction and you always write logical stuff..why can't we go for Lashy Rupantar?

There is some amount of Lashy Rupantar... be it, the knife throwing skills of an extremely handsome & intelligent AMK or the unbreakable spirit and wisdom of a partially blind angelic 16 year old

Worry not... 😉

Why I stick to logic/facts is because I am able to relate to the characters in such a story more...
