About this listen

A heartwarming and transporting romantic comedy about finding happy ever after on your own terms.

Heir to his father’s Mumbai business empire, Ved Mehra has money, looks, and status. He is also living as a closeted gay man. Thirty-eight, lonely, still reeling from a breakup, and under pressure from his exasperated mother, Ved agrees to an arranged marriage. He regrettably now faces a doomed future with the perfectly lovely Disha Kapoor.

Then Ved’s world is turned upside down when he meets Carlos Silva, an American on a business trip in India.

As preparations for his wedding get into full swing, Ved finds himself drawn into a relationship he could never have imagined - and ready to take a bold step. Ved is ready to embrace who he is and declare his true feelings regardless of family expectations and staunch traditions. But with his engagement party just days away, and with so much at risk, Ved will have to fight for what he wants - if it’s not too late to get it.

Critic reviews

“Ved’s listlessness and indecision is understandable, which speaks to how sympathetic and well developed a character he is…the book’s lightning quick pace, charming dialogue, and vibrant portrayal of Mumbai are more than enough to keep readers invested until the cathartic and uplifting final act.”Booklist

“Farhad J. Dadyburjor’s The Other Man is all about living the life you want, not the one that is expected of you. At 38, Ved Mehra is the heir of a Mumbai business empire, who seems to be living a charmed life. But what his family doesn’t know is that he’s gay, and although he has finally agreed to an arranged marriage, he has also found the man of his dreams.”POPSUGAR

Angst. Good performances

Performances very good. Story had too much angst for me. The main protagonist spent a lot of time lying
