Back to India 1987
Reborn in 1987 Mumbai, failed graduate Rajendra gains a system connecting him to a multiversal auction house. Starting with garlic and Bollywood tapes, he builds a dual empire: the shadowy MAKA syndicate, using divine theatrics to mask sci-fi tools, and the legitimate MANO conglomerate. As he trades Earth's spices and stories for cosmic wealth and blueprints, he navigates caste politics, corporate wars, and a crumbling Soviet Union, where a pragmatic army captain becomes his most dangerous ally. From back-alley smuggler to merchant-king bridging worlds, Rajendra must balance building a business dynasty with surviving the attention of interdimensional powers—all before the 20th century ends.
When Raj Verma, an exhausted young man fresh out of college, finally fulfills his late father’s last wish, fate rewards him in the most ridiculous way: by dropping a 400-liter water tank on his head.
His story should have ended there.
Instead, as his consciousness rewinds through every memory in seven brutal minutes, Raj wakes up in a completely different era — Mumbai, 1987 — inside the body of a stranger named Rajendra Shakuniya.
Confused, unprepared, and still mentally standing in 2025, Raj finds a glowing text-only virtual screen floating in front of him. Cheerful, playful, and utterly tone-deaf to his panic, the system greets him like an overexcited assistant:
“Good morning, Host! Let’s rule the world!”
In a world without smartphones, shortcuts, or safety nets… one young man from the future might become the most dangerous variable of 1987.
