Man in the Shadows

She is the regal beauty. A woman who knows her charms and her worth. She can turn the minds of men to mush and trample on a million hearts with a mere frown. Then she espies a handsome, lithe charmer who steals her heart. She knows she wants to be his wife, but ends up being married to not one but five men, even though she only longs for her Arjun.  

 

He is the slob. A man of base appetites, driven by rage and a berserker. Yet, his heart was untouched and ripe for the taking till the day he saw a dusky beauty after whom he lusted with a passion. A woman, who he knew he would never be able to claim as his, and yet the only one who could make his heart sing with a few words of kindness. He knows it is incest and morally wrong, but he can't help himself. And soon it is his life mission to keep Draupadi's world at rights no matter what the personal cost. For that one smile, he will move heaven and earth for her. 

 

The only man willing to condemn his soul to hell to help Draupadi fulfill her wish to bathe in Dusshasana's blood and tie her hair with his intestines, The Second Fiddle is the story of Bhima, a bumpkin of a man who finds his groove, discovers he is not the son of a god but sired by an Alien species and a brilliant cook who found that when truly in love, it is easy to be selfless, but very hard to rationalise the jealousy that eats you inside when always held up against the mirror of the ideal love object.
