Life, as they say, is all about those little moments, in which we take strong decisions that acts as a game changer. It is the series of such moments what makes life worth living. The book My Father is a Hero is one such book. It reflects on the life of an ordinary man and the circumstances that makes him takes such decisions, and making those moments extra-ordinary.

It basically is about a strong and special bond that a single father Vaibhav shares with her 10-year old daughter Nisha. He loves her to the core and has the willingness to do anything and everything for the child. This middle class man stuck in an ordinary and thankless job, is making all possible efforts to fulfill the simple needs of his little girl, right from her singing classes to birthday party. Touching!!





The story takes a sudden twist, when unexpectedly, Nisha starts behaving mysteriously. The girl full of enthusiasm all of sudden loses her mojo. Certainly, Vaibhav is worried about Nisha’s changed behavior. He could see her becoming quitter and reserved, unlike her original nature. Vaibhav, unsuccessfully tries to find out the reason. 

As a reader, this abrupt change kept me also curious as to what could have been the real reason. The narration is such, it wraps you in the agony. Of course I too had my own assumptions on the causes.

How Vaibhav makes every possible attempt to pull Nisha out of that despair is what the story revolves around; and in the process, he moves beyond his set limits and does something so unusual that even he had never dreamt of.

It is an interesting read for parents, especially father, depicting the power of an ordinary man when it comes to happiness of his child.

My rating: 3.5 Stars

I received this book from Writermelon in exchange of an honest review.
