Set against the vibrant and lore-filled backdrop of coastal Karnataka, Bhujang Shetty and the Lost Treasure by @thegauthamvkedoor is part whodunnit, part historical romp, and entirely delightful. Bhujang Shetty, our lovable, aviator-wearing hero, is as eccentric as he is earnest. Bhujang is a juice shop owner by day, and a wannabe detective by heart, trapped in the humdrum of daily life but forever dreaming of cracking a thrilling case. And one day, destiny answers. When a dusty old map sparks a hunt for a centuries-old hoard, Bhujang and his hopelessly romantic best friend Rathnesha embark on a journey that’s equal parts history lesson and hilarious chaos. What follows is a wildly entertaining adventure through the coastal town of Basrur - full of cryptic clues, hilarious mishaps, local legends, and a whole lot of heart. With every step, Bhujang inches closer to something far bigger than treasure: purpose, friendship, and the thrill of chasing the extraordinary in the most ordinary places. From secret passageways and forgotten Portuguese-Maratha histories to gossiping locals and spicy food detours, Kedoor masterfully builds a world both whimsical and rooted in cultural detail. The writing is snappy, the humour effortless, and the emotional beats surprisingly tender. There is clever banter, cultural texture, and a pace that never lets up. What truly makes this book shine is its heart. Beneath the comedy and clues lies a story about friendship, courage, and finding adventure in the everyday. Bhujang is the hero who truly stands out, being a little lost, wildly funny, and endlessly lovable. In short, this book is a laugh-out-loud treasure hunt with soul. Read it with a chilled kokum juice—you’re in for a ride.
