About this listen

Anant is a poignant modern-day tale inspired by Hermann Hesse’s Siddhartha, that chronicles the life of an atypical man, the unusual eponymous protagonist of the novella.

While people avoid facing the void and life’s big questions, Anant wants to delve deep into them and explore the unknown. Though his questions are much like everyone else’s, he seems to have this uncontrollable urge to find all the answers.

In his quest for ultimate meaning, Anant explores every path imaginable, only to find himself more lost and emptier than before. Disillusioned, he tries to conform, to live like everyone else. But destiny has other plans. Encounters with extraordinary individuals reignite his desire to transcend the illusions of the material world, escape the world of Maya and touch the infinite.

Will he succeed and achieve the impossible? Or will he give up and turn into yet another bitter, cynical and disillusioned man, like the many others who set out on the same path?

Anant is a fresh take on the classic masterpiece, a bold, fresh, pertinent lens on timeless struggles—one that speaks to the restless souls of our time.
