In the grand tapestry of Dwaparyuga, nearly 3,000 years ago, unfolds the extraordinary life of Karna aka Radheya, born as son of the Sun God and abandoned by his mother, Kunti. Adopted by Adhiratha, the charioteer of Dhritrashtra, Karna faces a lifetime of injustice and scorn due to his lineage. Despite possessing skills, he is relegated to the sidelines, forever bearing the weight of his outcast status.
'Radheya' breathes life into the overlooked perspective of this enigmatic character, offering a poignant retelling of Mahabharata from Karna's eyes. As he grapples with ridicule, betrayal, and his own identity, Karna rises repeatedly, a testament to his unwavering spirit. The narrative weaves through the complex relationships with characters such as Adhiratha, Radha, Duryodhana, Shakuni, Kunti, Draupadi and Pandavas, providing fresh insights into the intricate web of emotions and conflicts that defined that era.
The novel is not merely a retelling, it is a vivid exploration of the human condition, set against the backdrop of one of the greatest epics ever told. As Karna faces the challenges thrown at him by destiny, readers are invited to ponder the timeless question of fate versus free will.
