Radha, the princess of Barsana, is married to Ayan Gopa, the Chote Mukhiya of the Gopa clan. But she is restless, for he is not the dark playmate of her dreams.

When she first cradles the infant Krishna, Radha can feel the surreal bond they share course through her. She yearns for him. And as Krishna grows up, she sees that he too pines for her. Theirs is a relationship that transcends this lifetime. But that is not how Ayan Gopa sees it-to him, Radha is a vile adulteress who has destroyed his honour by giving herself to another man.

Radha finds herself facing the village court, charged with an illicit and scandalous affair with a man thirteen years younger than her. But how can her love for Krishna, her blue-necked deity, be illicit?

In Radha The Princess of Barsana, Neelima Dalmia Adhar tells the eternal love story of Radha and Krishna in all its glory. Complex and exhilarating, erotic and heartbreaking, there is no grander story than their love.

Through her work, she tirelessly promotes Indian art, languages and literature worldwide. She is also involved in humanitarian projects across the globe.
