the roar of my silence

The Roar of My Silence is an authentic story of an Indian girl, where the writer portrays the social stigmas faced by a woman every day. Some of them are crimes of the most heinous nature. But, in our country, more often than not, the girl is made to be the culprit. Society disregards every atrocity the girl has been forced to go through, and to top it off, finds a twisted logic to blame her for it.
Well, that’s me, Kumudh! I look like Kareena, slim, fair, and sexy. Dreams of love marriage. But is the life of a girl ever uncomplicated?
It all began when two boys entered my life alternately. They changed my life, but it didn’t stop there.
Depression… Eats me up from the inside.
I tried to suicide (or the culture tries his level best to kill me)
I faced marital rape.
! Against all the odds, do you think I can achieve my dream and hold on to my love? Do I still have a chance?
There is no chance, but the lines in my hands threw an opportunity to me as “Arjun.”
My story will have you in a wave of emotion long after you are done a reading, this powerhouse of work will make you smile, cry, go red in anger, nod your head in agreement and grasp the finer nuances of what it means to be her in today’s world. There’s much more to my story than these few lines. Get ready to experience the roller coaster ride of my life!
