A djinn is a spirit that can bewitch mortals. The story is told to us in the manner of a folk tale, as it is a modern day equivalent. Esha Rathore is a celebrity from the slums of Delhi, famous for her dancing. She falls in love with a dashing diplomat, A.J.Rao, who is a level 2.9 AI, human in all but body. Unfortunately, the Hamilton Acts are passed, forced by a reactionary USA, which outlaw high-level AIs. What then for the marriage? ( )
