Melodies of India  (Hardcover, Raunaq Sahni)

In "Melodies of India," Raunaq shares a deeply personal and moving narrative centered around his lifelong bond with a sacred river. From his earliest encounters with the river's serene beauty, Raunaq has felt a profound connection. Each year on his birthday, he would sit by its banks, seeking solace and a sense of belonging. However, these brief moments were never enough to quench his yearning for a deeper, more enduring relationship with the river.

After years of hesitation, Raunaq finally decides to embark on a transformative journey alongside the river—from its sacred source at Gaumukh to the revered Sangam point in Gangasagar. This pilgrimage transcends a mere physical trek; it becomes a spiritual odyssey marked by profound love and devotion. As Raunaq navigates the challenges along the river’s course, he confronts the stark realities of the land and his place within it.
