It was critically appreciated by some Indian reviewers, others noted that Tripathi's writing tended to lose focus at some parts of the story. Tripathi even changed his publisher and hosted a big launch for the book in Delhi. It had to be reprinted a number of times to keep up with the demand. Ultimately, when the book was published in February 2010, it went on to become a huge commercial success. It included posting a live-action video on YouTube, and making the first chapter of the book available as a free digital download, to entice readers. Ultimately when his agent decided to publish the book himself, Tripathi embarked on a promotional campaign. After finishing writing The Immortals of Meluha, Tripathi faced rejection from many publication houses. He decided to base his story on a radical idea that all Gods were once human beings it was their deeds in the human life that made them famous as Gods.

Tripathi had initially decided to write a book on the philosophy of evil, but was dissuaded by his family members, so he decided to write a book on Shiva, one of the Hindu Gods. Shiva decides to help the Meluhans in their war against the Chandravanshis, who had joined forces with a cursed Nagas however, during his journey and the fight that ensues, Shiva learns how his choices actually reflect who he aspires to be and how they lead to dire consequences.
