Book: My Father Is A Hero
Author: Nishant Kaushik
Publisher: Srishti Publishers
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:
