Radha and Krishna have been worshipped as a couple for so many ages. Despite this, why is Rãdhã not listed as one of Krishna’s 16,000 wives? There are many unasked and unanswered questions about the relationship of Rãdhã and Krishna. Due to many myths and folklore, the divine relationship is mistaken as unethical.

It is also said that once Krishna left Vrindavan, he didn’t turn back to Rãdhã. Are all these the partial truths, are they facts or just white lies? My Affair with Rãdhã is a book that unfolds many untold stories about Rãdhã and Krishna—stories beyond their birth, about their passionate love and love-making, about the reason behind their incarnation and separation, stories about their reunion and return from planet Earth. It is an attempt to glorify the divine love.

Duryodhana is the most tragic persona in Sanskrit classics; more sinned against than sinning; hugely misunderstood and a victim of biased abridgement. Sawkar throws light on a number of his less known but authentic events in his short life of thirty-eight years. Of maximal interest are his forceful arguments in support of his claim to succession; and his relationship with Subhadra; Sawkar's fictionalization based on logicality.
