Forget being docile, the princess with a tiger for her pet, appears to be a rebel through and through. And the warrior whose strength is to annex regions could be the very person the princess needs to save her kingdom. 

But will The Rebel Princess heed the words of the man who sets her on fire with a mere glance?

A budding entrepreneur with dreams of reviving the traditional recipes and delicacies with organic and natural ingredients is providing mouth-watering dishes. Anand Patel, 34 from Suryaghoda is a man who dons many hats and tries to excel in it. He is an artist, philanthropist, gardener, nutritionist, cook, model, and choreographer. 

During COVID 19, the lockdown and free time brought out the cooking talents of Anand. The recipes, which he tried at home, had many admirers. The delicacies, which were prepared using traditional spices and methodology, are made by using organic and natural ingredients. The raw materials, flour and other materials used in preparing the dishes are specially brought from villages and are ground using traditional practices. Local women help Anand in grinding, mixing, and preparing the dishes. The Sanskruti- Prakruti, NGO run by Anand is focused on providing a variety of dishes and products using organic and natural products straight from nature.  

By looking at the demand for homemade recipes, immunity builders and natural products during COVID-19, Anand decided to share the product list offered through his social media circle. Soon orders starting coming in and he had his hands full. 

Anand quotes" I believe the traditional recipes of our country are forgotten. They have a lot of nutritional value and each delicacy and product has methodology and value attached to it. Organic and natural products have always solved all health-related issues. Our ancestors hardly visited a doctor. They had remedies for all the health issues and their immunity was much stronger than ours. By reviving the products and practices, I want to give back the same qualitative products to as many people as I can. 

Sanskruti- Prakruti offers products kitchen ingredients like natural honey, jaggery, black pepper, and lentils, seasonal juices like aloe vera, gooseberry, and hair care products like onion hair oil, hibiscus hair oil, hair masks, Mehndi etc. Seasonal foods and delicacies are also prepared like sesame bar Kachariyu, Meethi ladu, Sweet Gooseberry, beetroot juice etc are also provided. All the items are prepared by using natural and organic ingredients. The raw materials are collected from forest and village areas. They are dried and processed naturally. 

Anand mainly focuses on providing well-known and traditional recipes to his consumers based on seasons. He says, “There is correlation between seasonal recipes and their health. If we eat food as per seasons then it will aid our health and boost our immunity. Nature has many products, which has medicinal properties. Slowly we are forgetting it, by reviving the products; I am planning to reach out to people within and outside our state and nation. In these tiring times, one has to become independent then why not do it by making our traditional practices and recipes popular through organic and natural ingredients. The new generation does not accept anything and everything. They try, test, and then approve. I really felt happy when people accepted my products and ingredients.”

Apart from involving village women in the process of preparing food and organic products, he is also helping them by purchasing mud crockery for preparing, storing his products. Sanskruti- Prakruti, is paying special attention into detailing of each products. When the ingredient or product order is announced through the social media circle, the process, and importance of each product is explained in detail. When you quiz Anand about it, he smiles and responds, “We should know what we are consuming, or using, I believe that when consumers know about the benefit of each and every ingredient and the process involved then they feel satisfied. Moreover, through detailing we are reviving the importance of each product”. 

Apart from Sanskruti- Prakruti, Anand simultaneously runs another NGO named Joel-Care. The NGO looks after the needs of a handful of elderly in form of providing them with clothes, food, medicines etc. He also conducts free dance classes in villages for poor children. Other than that, he has conducted dance program and fashion shows for specially-abled children. Anand through his small ways is helping women in rural areas to learn embroidery work and make a living. He conducts cookery classes and helps in setting up a kitchen garden in flats, societies, and homes. His products are available not only in Gujarat, but all over India and also across borders.  

The young man from Vadodara is teaching us through his little deeds that the volume of work does not matter if it is done with the right intent. When our actions are based on good intentions our soul has no regrets.

Revive, relive, and go organic and natural with a variety of products from Sanskruti-Prakruti. One-stop solutions for your health, appetite, and soul.

Book Blitz: Bewitched by Ruchi Singh

Genre: Contemporary Romance, Mythology, Folklore

Blurb:

The eternal dance of attraction, lust and love has been going on since time immemorial. 

The divine apsara Menaka descends to Earth at Indra’s behest to distract the sage Vishwamitra from the penance that would bring him unimaginable powers. Menaka succeeds in bewitching Vishwamitra, but her actions are destined to have dire consequences for both.

Eons later, their story is set to repeat itself.

Poorva has always played by society’s rules and ideas of decorum. But what happens when her own loved ones betray her in the worst way imaginable? Does she still have to remain bound by their rules?

Rudra plays with power and people like they are pieces on a chessboard. He has no qualms about indulging his desires, be it money or women, but is determined not to be bound by either.

What happens when these two diametrically opposite souls are brought together by fate?

In the game of power, lust, greed and betrayal, some win and some lose. But are there any winners or losers in the game of love?

Like Menaka and Vishwamitra, are Poorva and Rudra too destined to see their story end in tragedy? Or will the divine power prevail?

    Excerpt:

     Mumbling an apology, she sat up straight.

“It’s dinner time. You can sleep in the bedroom after dinner.”

“Bedroom?”

“Yeah, it’s just behind our chairs,” he said stretching his legs. 

“No, no. I’m fine here.”

“You are my guest, it’s for you.”

“No, no. I don’t want to inconvenience you.”

The flight attendant brought their dinner putting an end to the debate. She was surprised when the attendant brought another tray that had champagne cooling in a silver container with all the paraphernalia.

“I thought you didn’t take alcohol,” she couldn’t help but comment.

“Sometimes I do. This is an occasion which calls for a toast, don’t you think?”

“When others are doing all the thinking for me, I have stopped applying my brains.”

He chuckled and shook his head, “You know, I sometimes get the feeling you are more angry about my taking control of the events than anything else.”

She spooned the chicken curry on her plate refusing to reply. The food was awesome, and she was hungry.

“Isn’t that so?” he asked goading her again.

“I’m angry about everything. Every damn thing and every damn person.”

“I think you are angry with yourself too.”

“Oh really! Care to elaborate?”

“There are two reasons. You have been a good girl all your life. You thought that was the best thing to do, but you got nothing out of that. And now forbidden things are appealing to you, which goes against your first philosophy, so you are angry all the more.” He opened the champagne with a pop and poured the sparkling liquid into two flute glasses. He had taken off his coat and rolled up his sleeves.

“Forbidden things are appealing to me!” The blood flow accelerated in her veins at the sight of his hands and broad wrist. He had beautiful long fingers like those of an artist.

“Yes, didn’t you enjoy rehearsing and performing for the show?” He handed her the glass and clinked his with hers. “Aren’t you enjoying this meal with me high up in the sky?” 

“Hats off for turning the argument around and making it about me and absolving yourself for the entire mess.”

“It is not a mess and I’m just the instigator. In fact, I have done you a favor. I have taken you out of your boring life and given you a chance to enjoy the way you deserve.”

“Wow!” She chuckled, actually enjoying herself.

He went absolutely still, then leaned towards her and said softly, “You deserve the best, Poorva. You are a very nice person and should get everything you want from life.”

The air was thick with undercurrents as she looked into his sincere eyes. The brown specks in his black eyes glowed with goodwill and admiration. He came closer and glanced at her lips, then the spell broke and she turned her attention back to the flute in her not-so-steady hand.

“That was a nice thing to say,” she muttered.

“You are welcome.”

Publication Date: 11 May 2016

Sold by: Amazon Digital Services LLC

Genre: Romance

BLURB

An anthology of short stories exploring the emotion of love in all it's aspects. The love between a mother and son, a criminal and a stranger, an army officer and his wife, painful teenage crushes, second chance romances with twists in the tale and more.

Reader Reviews

"These are sweet, romantic short stories (though not necessarily 'romance') similar to what you might find in Guideposts. Most of the stories are set in India. All have an uplifting feel, with wonderful imagery and a realistic cadence which will make you feel like you are visiting that country. Some of the stories have the unusual theme of romance centered around film production, something you don't see everyday. My favorite story was 'Grace's Miracle' which had a fun twist that I don't want to spoil, but you will laugh and say 'a-hah!' I also enjoyed 'Afghan Adventure', to see the troubles through a India Army soldier's eyes." - Anna Erishkigal

"This is a heartwarming book, perfect for cozying up during the long winter evenings. All short stories are woven with love and sparkle with many hues. The stories flow easily and all have an element of surprise, an unexpected twist. These are not run of the mill romances. Pick a copy to read on a flight or gift one to someone dear. These are all stories to stir your soul and bring a smile." -  Neyz
