Kadachit Hech Ahe Prem: कदाचित हेच आहे प्रेम
by Abhishek Dalaviही कादंबरी लेखकाकडून लिहली गेलेली पहिली प्रेमकथा आहे. आपल्या देशाच्या इतिहासात कित्येक प्रेमकथा होऊन गेल्या आहेत. काहींनी इतिहास बनवला तर काही इतिहासात हरवून गेल्या. आजही प्रेम करण्याचा हक्क प्रत्येकाला आहे पण आपल्या मर्जीने लग्न करायचा अजिबात नाही. आजही कित्येक प्रेमकथा पूर्ण होतात पण काही कायमच्या अपूर्ण राहतात. जास्तीच जास्त प्रेमकथा अपूर्ण राहतात त्या मुला आणि मुलीकडील घरच्यांच्या नकारामुळे. या घरच्या मंडळींची नकार देण्याची कारणसुद्धा अगदी अफलातून असतात बरं. काही कुटुंबाना मुलगा देखणा हवा तर काहींना मुलगी कमावणारी हवी, काहींना मुलगी आपल्या जातीतली हवी तर काहींना मुलगा दुसऱ्या कुळातला हवा, काही सुनेकडे हुंडा मागतात तर काही जावयाला घरजावई बनवण्याचा हट्ट करतात. काहीवेळा मूलाकडच्यांचा होकार असतो तर मुलींकडच्यांचा नकार असतो. काही वेळा मुलीकडच्यांचा होकार असतो तर मूलाकडच्यांचा नकार असतो आणि जर दोघांकडूनही होकार असेल तर तो नकारात बदलायला कुंडलीचा दोष पुरेसा असतो. लेखकाच्या मते कोणावर जीवापाड प्रेम केल्यानंतर फक्त घरच्यांच्या हट्टापोटी त्यासोबत नात तोडून टाकणं, त्या पासून कायमच दूर निघून जाण, त्याला विसरून जाण या पेक्षा मोठं दुःख या जगात असूच शकत नाही. लेखकाची ही कथाही अशाच दोन पात्रांशी निगडित आहे. ज्यांची कुटुंब, शहर, रस्ते एकमेकांपासून फार दूर आहेत. पण त्याचं प्रेम, आकांशा आणि नशीब त्यांना त्यांचं आयुष्य एकत्र जगण्यासाठी मदत करत. आता त्यांचं आयुष्य म्हणजे नियतीचा मेळ आहे, नशिबाचा खेळ आहे मी प्रेमाचे फळ हे ही कादंबरी वाचून तुम्हीच ठरवा.

Per lui Kade rappresenta il mondo, anche se alla loro relazione manca ciò che Joe desidera di più. Ma non vuole fare pressioni: Kade ha un passato travagliato, e Joe è abbastanza certo di essere l’unica cosa che gli impedisce di crollare.
