Set in Bombay during the Quit India movement, the book is about three children—Sakina, Zenobia and Mehul—who are eager to be a part of Indian freedom struggle. When Sakina realises that there’s an underground radio network and her Bela aunty is a part of it and that she might be ousted to the British Government, she and her friends help the Underground People’s Radio in their mission to evade the British police—while their mothers are just running a cooking club.
Read it for a glimpse of 1942 Bombay and the role the underground radio (and Usha Mehta!) played in the freedom struggle.
Join the author in a conversation with the host Ayushi Mona as they discuss multiple facets of the book and the author's journey.
