Overview

A teenager arrives at Loharu train station with a golden ticket to an engineering career with admission to BITS Pilani, a revered engineering college, just 30 minutes bus ride away. He or she has little or no idea of what rainbows and storms lie ahead. New horizons to be explored, many brick walls will be hit. A few will not make it to the other end of this journey. Romance, academic enlightenment, fun, extreme competition, cultural festivals, extreme flexibility? What will be the shining light in this journey? Who and what will help him or her make it through? How will this prepare him or her for the future? You could hear those stories, sometimes too personal and too impersonal at other times!!! .... or better still, here you read them as SONGS! Or, better still, SONGS, with their BACK STORIES. Fifteen songs and their accompanying back stories take you on this journey. A package of beautiful lyrics, matter of factly prose poems, ballads of delight and joy, and hip-hop and rap lyrics of anguish and disappointment; and final exhilaration of success!! In English, Hindi and some in a Hinglish blend (with transliteration and translations). And, a multilingual one. A bonus of two anthems, one based on the title of the book, and another with the runner-up title. ALSO AVAILABLE AS A SEPARATE MUSIC ALBUM AT https: //rajeevarora.bandcamp.com !!!
