Explore the untold story of India’s urban elite in ‘Meet the Savarnas’ by Ravikant Kisana. As India aimed for superpower status in the early 2000s, the post-1990s generation of professionals was expected to lead the charge. Yet, the Great Indian Dream faltered. While many blamed external factors, Kisana delves into the overlooked influence of caste, particularly caste privilege. This compelling book examines how India’s urban savarnas navigate modernity, tradition, and intimacy, revealing their internal social dynamics and privileges. ‘Meet the Savarnas’ offers a groundbreaking perspective on why the dream never fully materialized by focusing on the concerns and crises of this influential social cohort. A must-read for understanding contemporary Indian society and its missed opportunities.
