Visha Vahini

Visha Vahini

by Ramanuja Rao Somaraju

Visha Vahini is a social drama set in Southern India in the early 1900s. It tells the story of a young man who falls deeply in love with his classmate and friend. His world crumbles when he learns she has married another. Devastated, he renounces life's joys, choosing detachment and isolation. The novel explores the destructive nature of obsessive attachment, using the metaphor of poison to illustrate how holding onto regret and bitterness can poison one's soul. Through the protagonist's journey, the author emphasizes the importance of finding peace and acceptance in letting go.
