An Eye For My Love - I Want To Live by Vibhor Tikiya
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Blurb -

Dhruv is a vagabond who lives life king size, without having to work for a living. He wanders around the world without a purpose. Life, however, takes a turn when he meets Aisha in Paris and falls heads over heels in love with her. An escapist, he is unable to express his love while his lady love moves back home to India.

Dhruv decides to go after her to the country that wasn't very kind to his late mother. To add to his misery, he loses Aisha in a violent incident. Transformed into the reluctant fundamentalist, Dhruv seeks punishment for the culprit through law. It’s when the loopholes in the system seem to be favouring the wrong side that he seeks vigilante justice. Aided by two men with their own agendas, he fights to achieve justice and balance.

“I want to live” – the last lines of a woman who changed India forever – inspires this tale of love, justice and revenge.

My views -


An eye for my love by Vibhor Tikyia, An emotional heart wrenching story. Author had started and ended the novel by stating Nirbhaya's last words "I want to live" which is so intense and hard to digest.

The story is all about Dhruv, a modern day gypsy. Who doesn't cares about money or anything in life until he met Aisha, the girl who changed his way of living within weeks. They both met in Paris while he is in tour at city of romance. Later on their meetings and bond increased.

Once Aisha left Paris and came back to Mumbai without informing Duruv, he fly over to India to find her. India the place where duruv didn't find his good memories after his mother passed at his age of sixteen. When at last he found Aisha's address. The strom hit him by her neighbours words of she has been struggling to get her life because of some hard stoned persons.

Later on story goes deep like, Did she survived, Did she get the proper justice she deserves, How did Duruv makes his way after the unfair incidents happened in his life.

My take is that hard love story with meaningful messages and state the pain of getting justice and good narration in how ordinary men struggles & even do assault to take revenge for proper justice.

Overall, "An eye for my love", redefine the mahatma's words "An eye for an eye makes the whole world go blind" by pouring out the true reality of the current society, insecurities for women, lack of justice and much more real life facts.
