Heart
of Bullets by Nikhil Kushwaha
Year Published : 2015
Publisher : Petals Publishers
Pages : 293
Format : Paperback
Book Synopsis
The only way to get close to those glittering stars in heaven is, to look at a soldier with stars on his shoulders'
Every time, they're around, the thing that we see is the bravery awards, medals, the pride, but what we can't see is their heart that lies inside the iron chest, some untold stories, sacrifices, and the hardship they've been through. Every soldier has a story that is unique and extra ordinary.
A tale of brotherhood & heroism, a tale of love & betrayal, 'Heart of Bullets', is about two best friends, Arpan & Sam, and the untold story of their friendship, untold story of their love, Shradha, but what happens when Sam gets hit by the enemy - across the border?
What will Arpan do to save his friend? Will love prevail over friendship of lifetime?
There is a decision to be made, is the life without love, and friends, better than dying to save the one we love the most?
My Review
Heart of Bullets is a story of friendship
, love , betrayal and sacrifice made on the border . More or less this story is
a tribute to all those soldiers who let bullets pierced deep into their heart ,
which might stopped their breath but their souls live forever . Story about passionate
lovers and how they had separate lives
even being born for made for each other. Story about two best friends who
stepped into each shoes whenever needed and heart wrecking sacrifice for
country and for friendship .
Nikhil Kushwaha , has totally enthralled
me with his work . I always enjoyed reading and watching stuff related to my
Nation and the book completely left me content . When I picked the book I wasn’t
sure that it would be so good that I completed it in a single sitting . The
book kept me hooked me from the first page till the last page . The content was
very well researched that’s again the reason I enjoyed it . Author’s toil is
reflected .
Narration- The book was
perfectly presented . Each chapters were
beautifully written . It keeps on flowing .
Language –
The language was simple yet catchy
. Readable . All the emotional segment were beautifully written
and it made my eyes moist too . The other part which I enjoyed were the poems .
Loved it !
Characters I enjoyed
the most –
Arpan – An average
looking boy but blessed with best friend like Sam who was more than a brother ,
a family who loved him like anything and sweet friend who he secretly admired
but never confessed anything to her and above all he’s a soldier who lived his
severing the nation . A true friend who ,
a proud son and a true human .
Sam – Sam , a boy next
door , a kind hearted person who was ready to help everyone even the path was
wrong . A boy who wanted to live his life at fullest , an edifier of love and a
true friend . Born with perspicuous mind and a gullible heart . His only
weakness was love but he defeated that also . And yes soldier like Arpan .
Shardha – Shardha was the
girl next door . A warm heart nestled in a shell but then love knocks at her
door and it changed her life . She sang the lullabies of love then she murmur
dirge for her only friend . A believer of love and a loving daughter .
Portions which I
enjoyed the most –
The
book bring me back few entrenched memories of my school days where we mocked at
teachers and gave them crazy pseudonyms , the rush to score well and being the
most adored students be it nefarious . The other portion which touched my heart
were the segments where friendship was questioned but it cleared passed every
fence with spectrum of love and friendship . Another portion was of a stubborn father who
brought upheavals in their lives , we see people like them . Sad but true . And
the portion which left me moist when a soldier died on duty. Duty or a scarf
ice .
Negative Punch –
1.
The cover picture could have been better .
2.
It was guessing in few chapters .
Book Recommendation- I would love to
recommend the book to everyone . All age groups can read this . You would find
many segments related to your own childhood , school-hood and the friendship .
May be you haven’t thanked your friend , may be you will surely thank him or
her for being with you after reading this book .
Overall Rating- I would be honored
to rate this perfect tour of love, friendship and patriotic work 4/5. A must
read !!
