the blue eyed boy of Goa who falls from
social grace
“He trained in the river…ruled the pool…and conquered the sea”
Nikhil and the sea are inseparable. He is like a dolphin, full of life and energy.
He is a carefree young man loved by his family and friends and someone who takes
life as it comes. Everything is perfect- he has a job in a bank; he is the undisputed
king of the pool and has a fiancée who is in total awe of him.
But then something goes wrong. He starts to get irritable and wakes up in the
middle of the night after nightmares. His sister senses that something is troubling
him. He keeps promising to tell her but doesn’t…and then one day he
is arrested.
Everything changes for him suddenly. His whole perception of life changes from
then on. Through this tragedy he discovers the beauty of life that one otherwise
takes for granted. Faced with rejection he goes through a process of self-discovery
and finds love and a meaning to life. |
