First of all, Krish, I owe you an apology for replying almost a month after your update on Part 4! The truth is, I was quite literally occupied with reading Part 3 for the nth time in my life, and I have only just reached the end of yet another reread. Some stories, after all, never really grow old, no matter how many times one revisits them.

The sheer joy of knowing that this long-awaited journey is finally about to resume is, quite honestly, beyond words! Part 3 feels like a lifetime ago, and the announcement that Part 4 is finally in the making, with January as the much-anticipated beginning, has reignited an excitement that never truly faded.

Krish, I do want to say something about all the opinions, expectations, and theories that readers have been sharing. They are, of course, absolutely welcome, and there is nothing wrong with readers expressing how they would like the story to unfold. But, at the end of the day, what I have always cherished most is the story that emerges organically from your own heart, mind, and hands.

So, by all means, do read what your readers have to say, but please, please write what you feel, what you envision, and what you have always wanted to bring to life. Do not let the weight of collective expectations intrude upon your natural creative instincts or alter the organic course of your storytelling. There is something profoundly beautiful about the way you write when you allow the story to flow in its own, unrestrained rhythm. That very authenticity, that unmistakable spontaneity, is what drew me to your writing in the first place and what made me your fan. I fell in love with your storytelling, Krish, and I trust the storyteller in you.

And honestly, what more can I possibly say? Two more months feel almost interminable when all I want is to step back into this world again. I am beyond excited to witness the next chapter of Krish and Meera’s journey, to delve deeper into their universe, to discover the emotions, complexities, and revelations you have in store for them, and to lose myself once again in a world that has stayed with me long after Part 3 came to an end.

January, please hurry up! The anticipation is unreal, the excitement is through the roof, and I genuinely cannot wait for this beautiful journey to begin again. Here’s to Part 4, to Krish and Meera, and to the magic that only you can create!
