“Our uniqueness makes us special, makes perception valuable - but it can also make us lonely. This loneliness is different from being 'alone': You can be lonely even surrounded by people. The feeling I'm talking about stems from the sense that we can never fully share the truth of who we are. I experienced this acutely at an early age.”

Perceptions are paramount. These are small stories that describe human perceptions of different situations. We are all reigned by our perceptions and sometimes they are in stark contrast of reality. Though we may realise later about the validity of our perceptions but our environment is generally weighed by the perceptions that we foster. Just look at your thoughts, you might be living with the wrong perceptions. This book is not aimed to change perceptions. There are enough authors, coaches, thugs, crooks and morons to do so around the world. The effort is just to show you the mirror.
Facts matter not at all. Perception is everything. It's certainty.
-Stephen Colbert

In this world, every character plays a specific role. Humans, as such, are never good or bad. They are governed by the situations that they endure in their lifetime. It is indeed a matter of the designs of the universe that people from diverse backgrounds and interests come across each other, to learn, grow and prosper.

In this world, every character plays a specific role. Humans, as such, are never good or bad. They are governed by the situations that they endure in their lifetime. It is indeed a matter of the designs of the universe that people from diverse backgrounds and interests come across each other, to learn, grow and prosper.
Biographies and autobiographies are written about famous humans who have attained substantial success in life. However, no one congratulates the commoner who undergoes through similar upheavals in life and yet cannot record their stories in the record books.
It is not only the illuminaries who command accolades. You and me and countless others like us need a pat at the back.
This kaleidoscope of biographies is intended to touch upon the maximum number of common people who jostle through the thick and thin to get a foothold under the sun. It is about you...it is about me.
Come let’s laugh and cry through the journrys of the KIRDAARS!
Are you a KILLER?
I do not intend to ask whether you have shot or gored someone to death.
“VADH” (killing) is not only limited to physical annihilation. It can happen with beliefs, dreams, aspirations, trust, faith, credibility, commitments, relationships, promises and many other attributes; knowingly or unknowingly.

Take some time, read these stories and reflect upon your life. Maybe, you will find your character entangled in one or the other circumstance mentioned within the wraps of the stories.
Let us learn from these tales of unfortunate and unforeseen situations, neither to commit unintentional/intentional harm to others nor be victims to the viciousness of society.
These stories have been taken from real life incidents to serve a warning to humanity to not let VADH happen again and again.
Stay Safe, Stay Happy and STAY WARNED!!

Negative actions and mindsets should come to an end. There have been endless stories of torment that history holds evidence of. If the right forces collaborate they can terminate any evil that may exist in the world. It is a story of a group of people who come together to snatch back their rightful place which had been usurped by people of evil intents through unscrupulous means. This is an age when the power of collaboration has reached the pinnacle. Time and again mutinies have happened in history and this time it is more corporate in nature.
It is rightly said that “Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it.” – Gearge Santayana.

The story involves everyone, whether from an urban backdrop, rural background or from the lofty peaks of career excellence.
The Human species had become complacent about their capabilities and might. Armed with the supreme knowledge of science and technology , they had been counting upon themselves as the Masters of The Universe . Sometimes , they even audaciously equated them to God.

The Human species had become complacent about their capabilities and might. Armed with the supreme knowledge of science and technology , they had been counting upon themselves as the Masters of The Universe . Sometimes , they even audaciously equated them to God. This belief had received further fillip after the victories they had achieved against life threatening diseases , calamities and pandemics like the recent COVID-19 virus . However , to their grand ignorance and surprise , much more sinister threats to their existence were on wait.
A series of explosions and disappearance of cities and towns around the world had suddenly rocked mankind. Humans realised during their search for the reason , they realised that the knowledge of science and technology that they were so proud of till recent times , was far from adequate. Humans were still far behind in their quest for achieving universal supremacy.
However , some global organizations got together to knit up an unit to investigate the causes of the destruction under the banner of INTERPOL . Human beings with extraordinary capabilities were assembled to embark upon a global mission called “Save Planet Earth.”
If humans do not resort to self-realisation , greater bids to annihilate this species will appear and re-appear . Though , humans must not lose their confidence and hope on themselves , they should at the same time be afraid. Very afraid….
