Calling Sehmat A Novel


The year is 1971. Tension is brewing between India and Pakistan. One secret could change the course of history... It's now up to her. When a young college-going Kashmiri girl, Sehmat, gets to know her dying father's last wish, she can do little but surrender to his passion and patriotism and follow the path he has so painstakingly laid out. It is the beginning of her transformation from an ordinary girl into a deadly spy. She's then married off to the son of a well-connected Pakistani general, and her mission is to regularly pass information to the Indian intelligence. Something she does with extreme courage and bravado, till she stumbles on information that could destroy the naval might of her beloved country. Inspired from real events, Calling Sehmat... is an espionage thriller that brings to life the story of this unsung heroine of war.

Must read n much better than movie!!!

‘Calling sehmat’is book that I read after watching the movie. Both r good in their own way. But book is phenomenal. It’s a good read if you like thriller n there are lot of insights n experiences from army/navy. Makes you feel patriotic n narrative is evenly paced. Must read!!
