MEHRUN

Najia Rizvi’s book MEHRUN is not just a story of a small-town girl Mehrun who is quest of achieving quintessential in life. For me Mehrun beautifully describes the complete cycle of love’s various stages and one can easily corelate with his successful or failed love. From infatuation to denial to blooming love to acceptance to letting go and to give or revive love for a second chance. Mehrun is flamboyant and she lives in her utopia. The story begins from a first year in professional college with loads of characters and great vibe and some unbreakable bond creating life long friendship. The description of college life is persuasive and entertaining and characterization is realistic. New college and new faces and the brink of adulthood resulting in hormonal imbalance creating some romance. Admits all this chaos Mehrun was omniscient to all this hormonal imbalance. Her approach to all this was practical and she looks beyond all this misery. On the other hand, Aarush is jovial fun-loving and his explicit comic timing makes him popular among the lot. Mehrun and Aarush’s character traits are vivid yet the complement each other and they had natural attraction. With every passing year their bond grew stronger and evolved an inseparable friendship yet the denial continued and time played its own card. Najia has eloquently described the emotional and family quotient of Mehrun’s life. The depth in the characters of Mehrun and Aarush is remarkable and have grown multifold with evolving story. Najia Rizvi has woven the characters from heart and Mehrun’s calm and composed demeanor helps are alienate and rediscover herself in spite of relationship challenges.

The story is heart warming and an perfect ode to timeless love.
