Abstract

This is the advanced generation, so the writers are more focused on writing about AI, robots and technology, alienation, and the gaming world. This research paper both critically examines and applauds the creative brilliance and thematic richness of Indian science fiction literature, while also offering a prism through which to perceive its artistic worth and cultural significance. It takes readers into speculative storytelling as it explores the many themes of Indian science fiction and the diverse worlds it creates. In this research, we will use thematic analysis, which is a qualitative research methodology, to analyse and interpret the themes, to ensure the themes are useful in connection with the research objectives, and to accurately capture the substance of the data. Researchers go over and revise the themes that have been found. In this research paper, we study new sub-themes and areas of the science fiction genre in the selected work of contemporary writers like Samit Basu, S.B. Divya, Gautam Bhatia, and Vandana Singh.
