It is more about finding the secrets of one Moon Lake, in Hindi referred as Chandratal.

Powerful Characters:

Rajeshwar, Rajshekhran, and Guruji are the powerhouse of the story. Throughout the novel it is the story of Rajeshwar. It was he who first experiences the incredible healing benefit from the lake. He is a businessman with murky past but after getting a new life, he changes for good. While wanting to know more about the power of the lake, he also bows to protect it from dangers like Rajshekhran who sides with an American medical company to steal its powers for commercial purpose. There are many characters, though auxiliary, yet superimposing as the need arose. Many of them are like gamblers and smugglers but you cannot loathe them for their merciless transformation or greedy aspirations.

Overall, the final impression of Chandratal is worth grabbing your attention. At the least, if you don’t turn Puneet fan, but you will appreciate the novel, for sure.
