Indian diaspora women writers have been performing a very important role in Indian English Literature. They have shown their solidarity across the borders and contributed in different forms of writings such as novels, autobiographies and short stories. Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni is one of them whose writing has explored various shades of immigrant experience. She belongs to a post-modern group of Indian writers in English. She concentrates more on her immigrant women protagonists, and attempts to exhibit their harsh and humiliating experiences. Her works reveal her special interest in the lives of displaced diasporic communities. From the perspective of diasporic concerns, Divakaruni delicately portrays how expatriate women, naturally, are endowed with the feminine abilities to relate simultaneously to two homes. The study is restricted only to explore and explicate the overall reflection of diasporic experience in the selected works by Divakaruni. The researcher selects some major works in order to make a profound and comprehensive critical study on her selected works with an emphasis on the diasporic concerns.
