Scenes
A Novel in Two Books
by N. K. Johel
What’s in a Name?
A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet. A cobra by any other name, however, would be just as lethal. One of the fun elements about Bollywood Storm is naming the scenes, and we often used the name of a character and its meaning as a title. The chapter names add to the fun. And they do have numbers, too.
