Some legacies are written in ink,
Not in a will!

When eighteen-year-old Avni leaves her Mumbai home for the competitive world of an Ivy League university, the distance between her and her father, Pawan, feels like more than just miles. Their deep conversations are replaced by hurried calls that leave the most important things unsaid.

Sensing his daughter is adrift in a storm of self-doubt and modern pressures, Pawan—a man who traded the corporate boardroom for a quiet life in his village—begins to write.

In a series of seventeen letters, he offers a different kind of inheritance. He weaves together the timeless wisdom of the Gita with hard-won lessons from his life as both a village boy and a business leader, writing of integrity, forgiveness, ambition, and the courage to find your own path.

Are You Happy, Beta? is a moving novel about the unlikely friendship between a father and his grown-up daughter. It is a timeless compass for any young person navigating the crossroads of life, and a quiet reassurance for any parent who has ever struggled to find the right words.
