Amrita (pronounced [əmrɪta]; Gujarati: અમૃતા), also spelled Amruta, is a 1965 Gujarati novel by Raghuveer Chaudhari. Although criticized for its highly Sanskritised language and lengthy metaphysical discussion, it is regarded as a landmark in the development of the experimental novel in modern Gujarati literature. It has been referred to as a reflective existentialist novel.
The story follows a love triangle between three characters, Amrita, Udayan and Aniket.[1]
