Sakhyam: Igniting a Movement

Sakhyam is a beautifully written and deeply moving exploration of the profound connection between humans and animals. Through the eyes of young Rohan and his bond with a neighborhood cow, this novel masterfully weaves together themes of empathy, self-discovery, and the pressing issues surrounding animal welfare. Set against the rich cultural backdrop of India, the story not only captures the heart but also opens our eyes to the urgent need for kindness and care in the treatment of animals. Srinivas has crafted a tale that will inspire readers of all ages to reflect on their relationship with the creatures we share this world with, particularly those, like bovines, who often suffer in silence. More than just a novel, Sakhyam is a call to action, encouraging us to advocate for animals’ rights to live free from cruelty and neglect. I am confident that this book will touch hearts and spark meaningful change, not just through its narrative but also through the important work being done by the Befriend Cows organization. It is a testament to the power of storytelling to transform lives—both human and animal alike.
