Publisher's summary

Thirty-four-year-old Ladoo, a simple middle-class divorcée from Rishikesh, wants only one thing from life - a baby. She eats gondh halwa, drinks badam milk, and takes folic acid to stop her ticking biological clock and become the world’s most fertile woman.

When an accidental meeting with a gynaecologist reveals that her ‘eggs are drying up’ and finding a sperm donor is her last chance of having a child, Ladoo races against time to find the right baby daddy, whose kundali matches her, while addressing her own mixed feelings about whether Mr. Right Donor can also be Mr. Right.

Along the way, Ladoo must figure out whether motherhood means marriage, whether being a single mother means loneliness, whether ‘my body, my rules’ applies to women, and whether doing something scandalous is outrageous or courageous.

"Finally! The woman-centric comedy we’ve been waiting for." (Kaneez Surka, comedian)

"This read encapsulates important social issues in fun, accessible writing. Can’t wait to see it made into a film." (Lisa Ray, actor and author)

"One of the funniest and most pertinent books of our time." (Anu Menon, actor and comedian)

"Witty and extremely relevant." (Maanvi Gagroo, actor)

"With this book, Meghna Pant proves that she’s funnier - and Sorabh Pant agrees - than her brother." (Atul Khatri, comedian)

"A hysterical family drama that should be read by every woman, and all men." (Abish Mathew, comedian and YouTuber)
