A book and a movie are different animals. You need a cinematic perspective to be involved in the motion pictures. And this is something I lack.

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

Writing helps me create a different world that I can escape to.

I don't care if my books don't sell abroad; we have a large enough market in our country. I write for Indian readers.

Writing was my route to creative expression, and I needed to write about the things that interested me.

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

I was a businessman for 16 years of my life, so when I started writing, I wanted to keep my literary identity separate.
