Ghachar Ghochar is a psychological novel written in 2015 by the Kannada author Vivek Shanbhag and translated into English by Srinath Perur. Widely regarded as one of the finest contemporary Indian novels, it presents an intense family drama suffused with emotions such as love, jealousy, arrogance, pride, and sorrow. Consequently, the novel fulfils the reader’s aesthetic expectations by evoking a wide spectrum of emotions and aesthetic delight. Although the narrative is rich in multiple rasas, such as Śṛṅgāra, Hāsya, and Kāruṇa, the Adbhuta rasa (the Marvellous Sentiment) predominates. The present paper examines the Marvellous Sentiment in Ghachar Ghochar and analyses how the novel remains faithful to Bharata Muni’s classical Rasa Siddhānta in evoking a sense of wonder and astonishment in its readers.
