You know I love the story! The things that steals the show for me is obviously Khushi. Her pride,elegance,character,love everything. I always admired women who could execute supreme professional roles without compromising all the personal roles. The way she stands for her people ,she stands up for her love for husband, she cares for all her relations..just impossibly beautiful

Secondly is the kind of relation Deepthiman shares with her. Desperately in love with her , he still doesn't feel the need to possess her to love her. As Arnav once wondered, will Khushi ever know?
Your story brings across 3 different kinds of love for me
1. The all consuming, selfless, totally dedicated love of Khushi
2. The possessive,consuming,lustful,heartfelt, greedy,demanding love of Arnav
3. The selfless , undemanding,patient,surrendering love of Deepthiman

The other thing I love about it is the setting. Your research,vivid description,scenes and scenarios help to visualise it pretty easily. Also the way the story has a natural line helps in accepting it as such.
My only concern is Shikhar didn't get what he deserved. I would have loved seeing him being brought down inch by inch by Arnav. 😆

Overall a stupendous work, gripping story, lovely updates. Keep your thoughts flowing dear

I have been a regular reader of THE MIRAGE and it was a very beautiful experience. I ran into your story just when you were on Thread-2, believe me with 2 kids to take care and my office work i finished reading your story in 2 days and got hooked to it.

The intensity in your story telling and the representation of the feeling in words in absolutely amazing. It was always like i was watching it rather than reading it.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

For me since i joined in late, i feel like it was a short journey and would definitely want to continue continue the journey by name THE PURSUIT.

Thanks for giving us the amazing work called THE MIRAGE.👏👏👏

Best luck with all your future works.

An amazing story with a fantastic plot and keeps you on the edge. I chanced upon this FF when it was thru 15 or 16 chapters. One of the best stories I have ever read. I still do not know what pulled me to this one, but as I continued to read, I fell in love with the strong Khushi, a refreshing change.

A complicated story, Khushi undergoes multiple life changes within a span of few days, a forced wife (falsely accused of breaking home, swindling money, of being characterless, insulted, nearly murdered), blackmailed, a designer and a Queen. But one thing she was never able to be was herself. This Khushi unlike the show or a lot of other FFs did not put her own personal feelings before her self respect, ethics, individuality or responsibility. I like how much she went thru and did not break, never lost hope and came out stronger. She kept her head on her shoulders at all times and as you mentioned in the FF "held her chin up". In spite of falling in love and yearning for a normal life, true queen that she is, she conquered her feelings and stood for her responsibility. "Rani Sa" indeed. And Arnav, what a huge difference between Arnav at the beginning, planning and executing a revenge on Khushi and the same Arnav planning and executing a revenge for Khushi.

In pursuit too, I do not want Khushi to lose herself or compromise her responsibility. If anything, I want Arnav to raise to the level where he conquers his emotions, inner demons and becomes a true Raja Sa. If this happens, Rani Sa will not only fall in love with him but will trust and respect him for what he became.

About your writing, never did I come across an amateur who is this perfect with the right plot, the show of emotions, the depiction of the story line, the scariness of the violence and nail biting cliffhangers (which were of course frustrating ;)). I love "The Mirage". The characters are well established and blend perfectly into the storyline. It's beautifully written giving a clear visual of the scenes going on. You are an amazing and very talented writer.

For what it is, "The Mirage" is a unique, awesome, lovely, intriguing, thrilling, exciting and brilliant Masterpiece.

from where should i start , hmmm , first of all iam not good with words , so its alittlebit difficult for me , to explain mirage , i can only say that , mirage have the power to change a mathure , professional, busy individual into , a careless ,teenager , who wake up in the middle of night or the very early morning ,just to check his i phone , not for the girlfriend text but the update of mirage, and that what. Exactly. Happen with me,
every thing about mirage , is flawless and epic, story , plot , characters ,dialogues, rituals, traditions,, rajputy language ,i know most of the people over here like khushi i like her two, she is such a selfless character , marvelous but
i like arnav two , i know he was arrogant , rude ,in theBegining, i use to hate him , but u changed his character so much , after mu ,and khushis explanation , it was like 180 degree change , now i like and support arnav so much , poor person is doing his best to win his wife , and i am sure that he will win her trust and love in PERSUIT , SO THATS WHY IAM ALL SET AND READY FOR THE EMOTIONAL AND ROMANTIC ROLLERCOSTER RIDE😳
CALLED PERSUIT , MIRAGE SEASON 2,😳

Mirage is a beautiful tale. It's a brilliant blend of romance, mystery, politics and drama. The characterization and portrayal of each character is very brilliant. I can easily imagine each setting and the foreplay that happens within each chapter. Not only do I enoy reading this fiction, I also gain insight to the royal traditions and the political system. This is a lovely tale that is as passionate as it is nerve wrecking. The tale ensures that we are on a roller coaster ride and each chapter gives unexpected cliff hangers. This story gives the pleasure of reading an inciting tale brewed in a brilliant plot with my favorite characters. This tale could make you hate a character and then make you love them just as equally. Mirage is one story that I read eagerly. I am confident that I will love the sequel just as much. There is nothing that I would want you to change about Mirage because it wouldn't be what it is if it is written differently. I have always be a fan of intriguing romantic tales and you are doing a wonderful job in writing one.
