In the mystical town of Pushkar, Rajasthan, where myth whispers through the sands and ancient temples watch in silence, a forgotten curse is about to awaken.
When Raghavendra, a devoted father, stumbles upon a mysterious artifact buried within his daughters’ school, he unknowingly sets off a chain of supernatural events tied to an ancient divine rift—one between Lord Brahma, the creator, and Vagdevi, the goddess of wisdom and speech. As strange visions, glowing scrolls, and serpentine shadows unravel before him, Raghavendra must confront a reality where forgotten gods still breathe… and curses never truly die.
Blending epic Hindu mythology, suspenseful twists, and cinematic storytelling, The Curse of Vagdevi takes readers on a mind-bending journey through hidden temples, breathing libraries, and realms where memory is power and silence has a voice.
Some truths were erased.
Some gods were silenced.
And one family is fated to remember.
Perfect for fans of mythological fiction, dark fantasy, and spiritual thrillers.

In his 12th novel, The Curse of Vagdevi – The Story of Lord Brahma and His Desires!, he explores the forgotten corners of Hindu mythology, unraveling a powerful tale of suppressed truths, divine ego, sacred feminine energy, and cosmic justice.
With 12 published novels to his credit, Syed Arif has carved a unique niche in storytelling that blends philosophy, social commentary, raw emotion, and untold truths. His most acclaimed works include Did You See My Family?, The Painful Lessons of Life!, Represent Yourself!, Book of Will!, Surrogate Mafia, What Is Islam?, and Maisarah’s World of Fairy Tales! — each one different, but united by a desire to awaken the reader’s mind and spirit.

With a solid foundation in banking, BPO leadership, publishing, and sales & marketing, Syed Arif brings to his writing the rare depth of someone who has lived many lives — as a professional, a leader, a seeker, and a storyteller.
In The Curse of Vagdevi, he reimagines the suppressed voice of the Goddess of Speech, asking a daring question: What if even the Creator wasn’t free from desire? This book is not just mythology reinterpreted — it is patriarchy challenged, silence shattered, and forgotten voices reclaimed.
"When desire corrupts divinity, it is not sin, but silence that becomes the curse. This is not just a mythological tale — it’s a spiritual revolution."
