i, before 'I'
by Kunal Bhatnagar
DESCRIPTION
We live as if we shall never die.
Kabir, a cheerful though conflicted young man, leads a regular, modern life. His dream, like that of many others, is to fall in love, earn money and enjoy life. As he meanders through life, flitting from one heart-break to another, he finally meets ‘the one’ who is destined to be his happily-ever-after.
Fate, unfortunately, decides just then to rock the boat. Unknown to Kabir, he is about to be tested in the most devastating way possible...
His world turns topsy-turvy when tragedy strikes in the form of the rarest of the rare – an illness that challenges his very existence.
This story is about Kabir’s transformative journey from a young man trying to decode the modern common life problems to his struggle through an adversity. It delves into how he uses his life’s experiences to remain thoughtful, positive and wise, embracing the change and trying to thrive in this ‘new normal’.

REVIEW
"This one has romance, philosophy, will power, tragedy, hints of humour and more. But what makes ‘i before I’, written by Kunal Bhatnagar, immensely readable, is its honest tone."
"There is no mincing of words when he describes the confusion, the gut-wrenching pain, the emotions Kabir goes through." Reviewed in Financial Express (leading newspaper).
