When I began writing DVANDVA, I wasn't simply looking to tell another mythological story. I wanted to explore a question that has fascinated humanity for centuries:

What would the final age of Kali Yuga look like if it unfolded in our modern world? What if, the cosmic world doesn't follow the rules of written scripts anymore ?

The Skhalita Yuga Trilogy was born from that question.

Drawing inspiration from Hindu philosophy, the Puranas, and the Mahabharata, the series imagines a future where technological advancement has reached extraordinary heights while humanity's moral compass continues to decline. It is a world where ancient prophecies are no longer distant legends—they begin to shape the destiny of ordinary people living in extraordinary times.

The first novel, DVANDVA, introduces readers to this universe and lays the foundation for a much larger story. As the trilogy progresses, new mysteries, forgotten realms, and powerful characters will emerge, expanding the scope far beyond what is first revealed.

Rather than retelling mythology, the trilogy asks:

•  What happens when ancient wisdom confronts modern civilization? 
•  Can technology solve problems rooted in human nature? 
•  Does free will exist when destiny has already been written? 
•  What does dharma truly mean in an age of confusion? 

These questions lie at the heart of the series.

Writing DVANDVA has been an incredible journey, and this website will serve as a place to share updates, behind-the-scenes insights, concept art, future releases, and the progress of the upcoming books in the trilogy.

Whether you've already read DVANDVA or are discovering the series for the first time, thank you for being here. I hope this journey through the world of Skhalita Yuga leaves you entertained, inspired, and reflecting long after you've turned the final page.

Welcome to the beginning of the journey.
