00:00My book Out of Madness by Hrithvik Aryan is out on the market now, it's a book by Inc Publications
00:27I got some questions from the ETV team, so I thought I'd talk about it in a video format
00:33This is the story of Mason Moron, he is an assistant professor of psychology at Nalanda University
00:40After his father's death, he became very lonely, and in his loneliness he marries a girl
00:46She is 12 years older than him
00:49In the marriage, he gets cheated, and then to avenge his wife, he pretends to be dead and disappears for 6 years
01:01So what he does in these 6 years, this is the story
01:04In the last part of the story, he goes to a mental asylum, where he meets this top notch Indian actress
01:10She is addicted to morphine
01:16Moron meets Stacey, the actress, and their love story is shown in the backdrop of the mental asylum
01:24Where there are many interesting characters and patients
01:27I stayed in these two mental asylums for 1.5 years to write this book
01:31The first was in Central Institute of Psychiatry, CIP, Ratchikaka
01:35It's a huge mental asylum, 220 acres, built in 1857
01:41The second was in IIMHH, Agra
01:44I haven't stayed in Agra mental asylum for a long time, I used to come and go there every day
01:50I used to write in the campus, but I stayed in CIP with the patients
01:54It was an interesting experience, I got to learn a lot

02:08It was a 6 year journey to write Lumsum Out of Madness
02:13When this novel came to the market, I understood that it has a huge implication
02:19Mental health and mental state is a very important topic
02:28People need to talk about it
02:30Suicide cases are increasing in Bangalore, Tulsubhash case
02:36Sushant Singh Rajput is a famous person in Bollywood
02:40There are many people in Bollywood who are facing suicide, mental illness, loneliness
02:47We have seen that it has increased since the COVID lockdown
02:53People are using their smartphones and social media more
02:58People are looking for escapism instead of real life
03:02This novel highlights all those topics
03:06I got the inspiration to write this novel from 2001-2003
03:18There were many Hollywood movies like American Beauty, American Pie, Superbad
03:27These movies were fun to watch, light hearted, entertaining
03:34People have stopped making such movies since the COVID lockdown
03:40No one is developing such a story structure
03:46I used to miss such movies, so I wanted to write a story for myself
03:51I must have watched these movies 50-60 times
03:58I was not able to watch such movies, so I decided to write a story for myself
