I am very interested in human-interest stories emerging from modern India. I get my inspiration and daily dose by reading the Hindustan Times.

Indian writers have appropriated English as an Indian language, and that gives a certain freshness to the way we write.

People don't just want a mindless flick with a superstar; they want to connect more deeply.

One does not question a miracle.

I am not into the unrealistic realm of magic realism where birds talk.

I did not go to any creative writing workshop; I did not major in literature. If I can write, anyone can write. All it needs is imagination.

Sometimes street knowledge can be as important as book knowledge.
