15 Best Romantic Novels by Indian Authors
We Indians are born romantics. Blame all those rain songs or the larger-than-life movies of Shahrukh Khan or perhaps the magnificent Taj Mahal, which was built by Shah Jahan for his beautiful wife Mumtaz Mahal. Even the ancient epic 'Ramayana' centred around the love story of Lord Rama and Sita. So it's only fair that we have some contemporary Indian romantic novels.
Indian novels have a huge following [well, we can thank our own population for it!] and though the writers do take certain liberties with the English language, they are mostly well written. Moreover, they provide an insight into the lives of people from various parts of India.

Palette of Love by Ashok Kallarakkal
'Palette of Love' is a brilliant little book full of short stories, each one celebrating a different shade of love. Ashok Kallarakal, the author, seems to dabble in short genre and doesn't disappoint. Though all of them aren't romantic love stories, it does have that Indian vibe going for it.

One of the best Indian romantic novels.
The PromisebyNikita Singh
One of the better works of Nikita Singh. 'The Promise' speaks about love in the face of adversity and brutality. It puts light on promises, the ones we break and the ones we keep. A much loved romantic novel in India, 'The Promise' brings out all the emotions in you.
Till The Last Breath by Durjoy Datta

Seven Days Without You by Anmol Rana
Childhood love stories are some the best love stories ever. They are agonisingly loveable and highly enjoyable. Anmol Rana perhaps knows this, as he tells us this cute little love story. A lesser known but nonetheless a very good Indian romantic novel.
