I am the author of eight books, including six novels -- The Newsroom Mafia, Revenge of the Naked Princess, Chaddi Buddies, The Krishna-Christ Connexion, Golmaal In Goa and Army Girl Steals Civilian's Heart -- a self-help book How to Create Miracles in Our Daily Life and a book on true crime stories, Crime Patrol: The Most Thrilling Stories, co-authored with TV Superstar Annup Sonii.

My romance with books began in my early teens. But the first books I read were surprisingly not mushy romances or silly detective novels, but the great literary classics and 'heavy' books on philosophy, psychology and self-improvement.

I began reading thrillers and paperbacks much later in life. I always wanted to be a writer, but since publishing works of fiction was so difficult in a country like India, I chose what I thought was the second best option -- becoming a journalist.I have more than 30 years’ experience in journalism and communications.
