"The Pink Smoke" is a novel set in the backdrop of Bangalore, India. It traces Siddhant Roy's journey as he tries to adapt himself into an alien world of love, lust, addictions and unnerving degrees of friendship. He gets guided by two contrasting elements: Saahil, the perpetually high philosopher and Ashish, the sane and balanced advisor. His ambitions and desires duel it out inside his head and his love for Nikita "fireball" Sen drives him over the edge as he begins experimenting with every social norm, until his world comes crashing down. The story has been placed amidst varying shades of emotions, questions the authenticity of every feeling that is akin to love, making it a worthwhile read.

About the Author

Shomprakash is a technical consultant at Dell International Services and currently resides in Bangalore. He belongs to a generation of infant adults who grew up reading the works of JK Rowling. The concepts of magic and good literature seemed pretty close, via definition, by the time he stumbled upon the works of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and then got steadily inspired by a rising breed of Indian authors.
