Love Journey Delhi To Sydney

Book excerpt: Love Journey Delhi to Sydney Sukhi is a middle class Sikh, falling in love for the first time. From the moment Neetu smiles at him in the temple during the festival of Diwali, he is smitten. She is beautiful, educated and modern, and in her last year of medical school. She is also a Jat, a land-owning elite of high status. Their sweet, Delhi romance soon develops into a deep love that neither can live without. Sukhi's meeting with Neetu's parents in the north ends with an ultimatum. Sukhi must prove himself worthy of Neetu and he has three years to show he will be able to support her in the style she has been brought up in. Despite his Master's degree, Sukhi cannot see how continuing his father's business in India will ever enable him to accomplish such a change in his living standards, so he makes the decision to move to Australia. Once he arrives in Australia, however, his priorities change. Sukhi becomes Sam and he is quickly seduced by the different lifestyle and enamoured by the casual, open people he meets, especially Sara, the eighteen year old sister of his colleague, Mark. Is Sukhi willing to break Neetu’s heart and the promises he made? Is Sukhi prepared to give up Australian life style and the love for Sara? Are Sukhi’s Parents willing to accept a new way of life in Australia and give up Neetu for a white Australian girl?
