Both parts of  `Saat Janam Ke Baad’ discuss many social issues of royal families in India. The novel is an intense mystical romance novel based on the concept of reincarnation, centered on a karmic journey of the soul. It also explains the caste system and how it has been manipulated by the world

for its own selfish motives. The main character, Rajeshwari, is misunderstood as she is torn between her past birth love and romance as well as her love for her husband in her current birth. Chauhan socialized with those in attendance during the meet and greet. During the cocktail hour various singers took turns to keep the guests entertained. All of the singers were introduced by emcee Shailesh Shah, and mainly sang songs from previous eras. The event opened with the lamp lighting ceremony in which Chauhan, the speakers, the guest of honor, and others  came to the stage to light the diyas . The ceremony had a twist as the traditional diyas were not used but tea lights.
Vasu Pawar, master of ceremonies, then invited Bani Mukherjee to the dance floor for a Kathak performance. Continuing the launch, speakers who had read and analyzed the novel were welcomed to the stage to present their views during a book discussion. Each of the four speakers had a specific topic to present. 
Giving an introduction of Chauhan and her books was Aparna Hande’s focus. In a  powerpoint presentation, Hande gave an overview of Chauhan giving an insight into her background; how she founded Jagriti, a non-profit organization among others details.“Chauhan is a natural born writer,” said Hande.
Dr. Amrit Nehru then spoke about Kashmir and its presence in her novel. “It is a beautifully woven story,” said Nehru.
Dr. Parvin Syal, then addressed the caste system, explaining the way the system works, its history as well as its role in the novel. The caste system began as a task based classification which was later taken advantage of and turned into something individuals are born into. ``Chauhan has done a great thing by bringing various issues to the fore for reflection and to come up with possible solutions,’’ said Syal. Harshi Syal Gill, spoke about reincarnation and its presence in the novel. Gill explained how the reincarnation is a central theme of the novels. Additionally, how reincarnation is one of the many concepts in Hinduism but when it actually happens it is considered crazy. “This novel is a gallant attempt,” said Gill as this glimpse was one dimensional. 
Finally the most anticipated part of the evening came when Chauhan came to the stage to say a few words.  “I was hesitant and not comfortable to write this story,” said Chauhan. She explained how she felt prior to actually writing the novel and how it is based on a true story of an older woman and a younger man. 
Nehru then honored Chauhan by presenting her with a shawl. Additionally, all of the speakers were presented with  bouquets. 
Ranjun Chauhan was invited to the stage to introduce and welcome the Chief Guest of Honor, Rajshree Chapman. Ranjun Chauhan said a few words about Chapman’s career as a Bollywood actress and how she has always been a family friend.
“I am honored to be here and support Kamlesh,” said Chapman. “The heroine who still lives in the people’s hearts,” said Kamlesh Chauhan in return. In appreciation, Chapman was presented with a plaque and thanked for her support and presence.
The event came to an end with dinner being served and Kamlesh Chauhan thanking everyone for attending.
