The author plans to release a book for each month of the year, showcasing various aspects of Indian culture, such as Holi, Diwali, cricket, and weddings. By setting his stories in Delhi's Chandni Chowk, Waters aimed to immerse readers in a vivid and colorful world that feels authentic to Indian readers.",
