Congratulations on the release of 'The Vision Palate'. What is the feedback from your friends and readers who have already read your book.
What kind of books inspire you as a writer? Who are your favorite authors?
I specially like cook books and some books based on biography. I love reading them. And I have some. My favourite authors are Chef Vikas Khanna and Dr APJ Abdul Kalam.
Why did you want to become a writer? Who inspired you to become a writer? What triggered you to come into writing?
Well I can't be a chef rest of my life. I loved writing when I was child, during my teens. My inspiration to write a cook book is Chef Vikas Khanna based in America. And also Dr APJ Abdul Kalam. People love cooking. I want to explore fusion cuisine and introduce it to home makers.
What are you doing to let readers know about your book?
A simple answer ‘strong word of mouth’. I believe in that and I personally been in some cookery shows on television to promote my book. And to some colleges as well.
