Love in the 21st century

What happens when two ex-lovers, who once had a breakup because of their assumed incompatibility, meet each other through an AI-generated dating application called AILENA? Love has indeed found a new dimension in 21st-century India.

Delhi author Stuti Changle's new book, Stars Will Guide You Home (HarperCollins), explores this phenomenon.

In her words, "I have spoken to friends, readers, and colleagues, and they narrated their experiences on multiple dating applications in their quest to find relationships. Hence, I thought of writing a novel where the protagonists would rely on an app to meet each other," she says.
