“Book Descriptions: Famous Indian novel Mahanayak is a political and personal drama that records the clash of the titans of India's struggle for independence: Subhash Chandra Bose, Jawaharal Nehru and Mahatma Gandhi. Mahanayak is the outcome of the meticulous, assiduous and painstaking research of Sahitya Akademi Winner author Vishwas Patil. It took him across Japan, Myanmar (then Burma) and the other countries of Southeast Asia trailing the footprints of its hero Subhashchandra Bose. Mahanayak was originally written and published in Marathi in 1998. It has been ruling the imagination of Indian readers for almost twenty years.” DRIVE
