Every morning, little Sudari believes she is steering the scooter as her mother rides her to school.
Nila lets her believe — because some illusions are gentle, necessary, and full of childhood.
But one unexpected journey reveals how every emotion on the road—fear, anger, mistakes, grace—quietly teaches us that what we call control is often only an illusion.
An illusion we cling to, just as children cling to a handlebar that isn’t really steering.
Later, over coffee, Nila shares the morning with her neighbour Vikram, whose reflections reveal a tender truth: we never stop being children in the hands of something greater.
Sudari is a soft, moving tale about illusion, grace, and the quiet trust that carries us forward.

YadhavaKrishnan Ranjani Santhanam
YadhavaKrishnan Ranjani Santhanam writes stories that listen more than they speak — quiet journeys where ordinary moments unfold into timeless reflections.
His debut novel, ODO – The Lifeline, explored memory and time. In Sudari – Between Her Hands, Blending warmth, spirituality, and the rhythm of Indian life, his writing seeks one gentle truth: That behind every motion, there is a meaning — and behind every hand that steers, there is one that holds.
