Abstract

East-west encounter in the Indian writings has exhibited a significant area of concern. Gita Mehta's works “Karma Cola”, “Raj”, “A River Sutra” are the focus of this paper, where the novels will be analysed to explore the stereotypical assertion of the East by the West. Hence, the objective of the study is to break the stereotypes of India by capturing brief insights into the real-life in India. The study attempts to further take a mocking view of the Western belief which will help understand the representation of India from a western perception. Hence the primary focus of the research will be to evaluate the cultural representation of India critically.
