Once Upon a Curfew by Srishti Chaudhary 📚💖✨

Set against the vibrant backdrop of 1970s India, Once Upon a Curfew by Srishti Chaudhary is a beautifully written tale of love, rebellion, and self-discovery. This enchanting novel brings to life the turbulence of a society on the brink of change, where dreams clash with tradition, and love finds a way amidst the chaos.


About the Story 🌟

Set in 1975, during India’s Emergency—a time marked by political upheaval and societal unrest—this novel follows the journey of Indu, a young woman caught between her dreams and societal expectations.

As her library grows, Indu meets Rajat, a journalist with revolutionary ideas, and her heart is drawn to him.
