I was passionate about reading from an early age, and I would always be carrying a different book each week.

If there is one city apart from Mumbai where I would love to settle down, it has to be Chennai.

We don't need to dumb down our stuff. And it's important to know how far we can push readers.

I want my writing to reach people. I don't write for a market. I write from my heart, something that appeals to me. The marketing, segmenting etc., can be done by your publisher, not you.

I want to make sure that my writing grips the reader from the word 'go.'

I want to be remembered as a storyteller more than someone who had something meaningful to say.

There has to be a protagonist who has to overcome challenges, and there will be a race to finish.
