'Chandrakanta' is Devkinandan Khatri's novel which is considered to be the first prose work in the modern Hindi language. This novel got popular to the extend that there came a TV serial based on it, with the same name. The story is a romantic fantasy about the prince and princess - Virendra Singh and Chandrakanta - of two rival kingdoms, with a lot of magic in it.

I found this article on the history of South Asian spec fic very interesting. Not an area I knew anything about and I'm curious to learn more.
Tagged book is one of the first few the author mentions (I think. Unless the Litsy database has led me astray.)
