Ganesha’s Temple has the potential to become India’s first fictional fantasy universe. It can be likened to Marvel’s Avengers, Harry Potter or Percy Jackson. There are high chances of the book being adapted into a big-budget production. The plot is appealing to children and young adults and will garner a good international fanbase. It is a mix of action, drama, fantasy and fun mixed with the mythological stories a lot of Indian kids have grown up with.
