Niharika is a quiet observer in a world that values labels over understanding. Born with a mind that notices patterns, questions assumptions, and calculates outcomes, she moves through life like a careful strategist—always watching, always planning, always measuring herself against invisible standards.
From early encounters with teachers who dismiss her subtle brilliance in favor of her sister, to the silent games she invents to claim recognition and mastery, Niharika navigates classrooms, family, and society with a mix of precision, resilience, and quiet defiance. She studies not only lessons, but people—their moods, habits, and expectations—learning to bend them subtly without breaking herself.
The Curse of a Genius is a story of intelligence as both gift and burden. It explores how brilliance can isolate, how mislabeling can wound, and how the drive to be seen and acknowledged shapes a young mind. It is a portrait of growing up inside one’s own thoughts, where calculation, strategy, and self-discipline become survival tools in a world that rarely notices the quietly extraordinary.
