Me and I

“A story that breaks the barriers of space and time”
They all had the same question for Mukul: ‘Why didn’t you recognize us? And why did you look so dark?’ Mukul was perplexed. The day had started as any other Sunday morning would, with him going out to meet his aunt, his friends and his mentor Noni Kaku of the Telescope. But when everyone, including his own parents, insisted

Fusing human curiosity about space with a futuristic vision, it delivers it all with a suspenseful, gobsmacking punch.
