Before dawn ever touched humanity, a choice was made that shaped creation itself.
Saranyu, daughter of the divine craftsman Tvashtra, is wedded to Vivasvan, lord of the Sun—her beloved, yet the source of her torment. Blinded by his radiance, she forges her own shadow, Chhaya— and in doing so, sets into motion a cosmic conflict between light and darkness, duty and desire. Half Deva, half Daitya, Saranyu’s journey becomes one of rebellion and self-discovery. Torn between brilliance and shade, she reclaims her voice, her power, and her place in the order of the cosmos. Blending the grandeur of Vedic myth with the intimacy of a woman’s awakening, Saranyu reimagines the forgotten wife of the Sun—not as a consort, but as a creator, a mother, and the unseen force behind the rhythm of existence.

This is her story—of love, defiance, and the choices that birthed the civilization.

Saiswaroopa Iyer is a best-selling author celebrated for her evocative retellings of epic heroines. Her acclaimed novels Draupadi and Rukmini reimagine two of the Mahabharata’s most compelling women, bringing their voices, choices and dilemmas into sharp contemporary relevance. As a Stree Shakti awardee (2022), she is known for her ability to combine meticulous research with narrative intensity, carving a niche as one of the foremost voices in Indic mythological fiction.

Alongside her literary journey, Saiswaroopa has over a decade of professional experience across academia, startups and venture capital. Currently, she serves as Program Lead—Writing, Courses, and Communication at INDICA, where she is setting up the Writing Centre and spearheading initiatives to nurture the next generation of authors and communicators. She is also associated with Chanakya University, where she taught creative writing, communication, and entrepreneurship, mentoring students to discover and refine their voices. Saiswaroopa is the curator of LitTales by The Verandah Club, India’s largest immersive literature and cultural carnival for children.

Through her books, teaching, and program leadership, Saiswaroopa continues to explore the transformative power of stories—whether through epic retellings, contemporary fiction, or by empowering others to write their own.
