"Seema's Sky" is a translation of Prakash Trivedi's second novel "Seemanu Aakash". It has been specially translated by Ashok Dholabhai for shaaditimes. It is a love story and more. It is story of confronting one's own limitations and inhibitions and thereby getting matured, attaining adulthood and casting one's demons aside. It is story of a country boy Nikhil and city bred Seema. It is a story of their match making and their falling in love ever so slowly. It is also story of exhilarating, exciting and yet exhausting New York. New York, which is both inspiring Nikhil to reach it's sky and posing myriad dangers when he attempts that. This is finally a story of experience of survival, which is translated into love!
