At the time when young college-going boys and girls used to find comfort in the cacophony of romance novels where without much of anyone’s surprise, the teen protagonist used to have unrealistic expectations, irrational decisions, and false promises destined to remain unfulfilled, Ajay K. Pandey took the whole literary world by storm through his debut novel, “You Are The Best Wife – A True Love Story”. Indeed! It was a true love story. The true love story of Ajay K. Pandey and his deceased wife, Bhavna. The story of seven years of love, care, affection, emotions, dreams and two years of togetherness, fondness, passion, responsibilities, despair, longingness, and God knows what else emotions he would have gone through when his last words to his beloved wife were, ‘You are the best wife.’ 
How much pain he would have gone through cannot be imagined even in the wildest dreams when you are unfortunately destined to see your beloved wife getting on the brink of mortality with each passing moment who has fallen sick with dengue and then been diagnosed with a rare blood infection? How much helpless you can find yourself when even the doctors are not sure how much time she has left with her? You want to talk a lot, but the uncertainty of time is not even allowing you to ask for forgiveness or appreciate her beauty. The helplessness, heartbreak, agony, despair, and loneliness that he had to encounter after her heavenly abode mixed with her sweet companionship, immense love for him, the beautiful moments spent with her marked the penning down of his debut novel which got published on 23rd November 2015 with Srishti Publishers.
The true emotions of a person for his beloved wife resonated very well with readers all around the country, and ‘You Are The Best Wife’ became the new talk of the town. It also started to top the bestselling charts and went on to be one of the few novels in the country that has sold more than half a million copies!
The success of the debut novel led Ajay K. Pandey to pen down another novel which also got commercial success. As his novels were ruling the bestselling charts in a country where authors often complain about
lack of book sales; Ajay K. Pandey got an advance of more than a sum of 10 Lakhs each for his two upcoming novels, ‘You Are The Best Friend’ and ‘An Unexpected Gift’ by Westland Publishers. He has been one of those few authors of the country whose every novel is eagerly awaited by readers all over the country. Ajay K. Pandey has published nine novels till now and every book has touched a minimum sales figure of 50,000 and has been a true literary inspiration.
Ajay K. Pandey who has a penchant for crafting romance genre novels is not very fond of screen adaptations of his work as he feels that the authors are not getting their due recognition. And perhaps this is why we are only left with the option to read his books to immerse in the tapestry of magic he weaves in his books. Ajay K. Pandey like all the great authors believes in writing his stuff unaware of the distractions and hullabaloo and tries to bring back the essence of love which is perhaps diminishing in the current generation.
