I was nominated by Indrasish Mukerjee, Rajiv Chatterjee and Ujjwal Kabra to list out 10 books that have influenced my life. spontaneously, Swami and Friends - RK Narayan (This is not a book for me. Its everything that i base my life on. Its my never ending well for insights and everything.) Malgudi Days - RK Narayan (He made me realize that the smallest tiniest details matter more than anything else. More than the story, the plot everything. His characters are people the whole world knows.) Five Point Someone - Chetan Bhagat (I dont read a lot. He made me read. And that mattered. It may be rubbish to the whole world. But I laughed throughout the book. Pleasures of being not well read.) Talking Songs/ Talking Movies-Javed Akhtar in conversation with Nasreen Munni Kabir William - Richmal Crompton (a series of books about a naughty boy named william. He could take the pants off tom sawyer. My entire school life i only read this.) My experiments with truth - MK Gandhi Fountain Head - Ayn Rand (im yet to complete it. I read this over a period of a year. Because every two lines sets you thinking and contemplating and asking a million questions.) Secret Seven - Enid Blyton (After this i could never read famous five, hardy boys or Nancy Drew because secret seven had seven characters and they had only five, two or one.) Mani Ratnam in conversation with Bharadwaj Rangan The making of sholay/ The making of lagaan TInkle Comics/ Amar Chitra Katha i now nominate Sudhir Rajasekharan, Nischalson Crusoe, Vivek Kakkad Raj Iyengar and Ravi Ramakrishna to pick their 10.
