Love and duty collide in the heart of the Immortals from "summary" of Immortals of Meluha by Amish Tripathi

In the kingdom of Meluha, duty is paramount. Immortals, revered for their wisdom and strength, are expected to uphold their responsibilities without question. Love, on the other hand, is seen as a weakness, a distraction that can cloud judgment and lead to downfall. For Shiva, a mortal who is believed to be the prophesied Neelkanth, love and duty collide in the most unexpected way. When he falls in love with Princess Sati, the daughter of the Meluhan king, Shiva is torn between his feelings for her and his duty to fulfill the prophecy that could save the kingdom from destruction. As Shiva grapples with his emotions, he begins to question the rigid beliefs of the Meluhans. He starts to see that love can be a source of strength, not weakness, and that it can drive him to do what is truly right, even if it means going against tradition and risking everything he holds dear. The clash between love and duty forces Shiva to confront his own inner turmoil and make difficult choices that will shape the fate of Meluha. In the process, he discovers that true strength lies not in blindly following orders, but in following the dictates of his heart, even if it means facing the wrath of those who do not understand. As Shiva's journey unfolds, he learns that love and duty are not always mutually exclusive. They can coexist in harmony, guiding him towards a greater purpose that transcends the limitations of tradition and prophecies. In the heart of the Immortals, the eternal struggle between love and duty becomes a powerful force that shapes destinies and changes the course of history.
