About me

Hi! I am Namrata. I started reading at the age of 4 and haven't stopped since then. This blog started to share my love for books and has since then just grown manifolds. I read and I review and I review and I read... it's a happy never ending cycle. I live amidst sepia-toned walls, fuchsia curtains, fairy lights, and shelves full of books.

The Peshwa defies his orthodox Brahmin heritage, declaring his love openly for the half-Muslim dancer, in the face of fierce opposition. A man way ahead of his time, Bajirao causes outrage when he marries Mastani, bringing her into his home as his second wife. N.S.
