About the Book

Does marriage triumph live-in relationships or is it the other way around for millennials?

When 30-year-old friends Kiara and Neeti meet after a gap of eight years, they realize that the grass is always greener on the other side. Kiara, who has been married for two years is rethinking her decision to marry and wonders if settling for a live-in relationship would have exposed the cracks in her relationship sooner. Neeti, who has been living in with her boyfriend despite the societal taboos associated with it, contemplates if marriage is the answer to secure a future of her relationship and shut the unsettling voices.

Will Kiara walk away from her turbulent marriage and Neeti choose to walk down the aisle? Delving into the pitfalls of both, Do I Not Marry draws a searing portrait of the lives of modern Indian women who are often torn between their ambitions and the expectations of their families.
