At Night You Sleep Alone

It was a love that began with the innocence of youth. A carefree love between two souls, made for each other the moment they set eyes on one another; and so began Parkash and Nirmal’s love story...However, one night Nirmal’s life is irrevocably changed. One small decision by her politician mother sets off a chain of unfortunate events, leading to a very different life than Nirmal had ever imagined – a life which takes her away from her true love. Her future depends on her mother’s whims – will her mother save her daughter’s honour or her own political career? Years go by, and it is not until some twenty years later that Parkash is brought face to face with his past. Is it too late for Normal and Parkash or is there a glimmer of hope..?
