Synopsis

A mesmeric force pulls Jabya onto the other side. The rarest of rare Black Sparrow he is told, is the cure to his problem. Her ashes are believed to cast a hypnotic spell on the one you are in love with. Completely away from the magical world of Jabya, exists the callous reality of his parents who are working at the most oppressed level of the Indian Class Structure and assume him to do the same work which they have done all their life. The protagonist has to now struggle between his quest to find the magical sparrow and his parents expectations.

Will Jabya be successful in his pursuit of the Black Sparrow? Will the magnetic power surpass the class differences between Jabya and Shalu created by centuries of customs? Will Jabya break the fences and pass onto the other side? Or Jabya will unearth something totally unexpected in his journey?
