There is no other world I'd like to visit than Hogwarts. I'd certainly visit the room of requirements' hiding place and collect things Hogwarts student's didn't wish the professors to find out.

I once bought a bust of the Egyptian King Tutenkhamen. It was placed serenely in my living room facing the entrance. It just so happens, whenever we keep anything important near it, it vanishes without a trace. On the vey first day, my sister's stethoscope disappeared. I lost my Game of Thrones memorabilia key-chain. Old photos, box of sweets and countless little objects have since then vanished. Maybe someone nicks it or maybe we forget where we really kept our stuff. But nothing is ever found. We have stopped keeping valuable stuff near it.

I'm working on a sci-fi murder mystery. Its about the time when Delhi was gripped by the menace of the Monkey Man. You can find a sneak peek of the prologue in the print edition of my book. It was appreciated by the well acclaimed writer Mr. Marshall Gass as "...the opening was succinct and clear. It felt like Dan Brown at his desk. Congrats."

Whenever I observe or discover something interesting, like a fact in history, or an exotic scientific theory, my pen hands starts to itch. I like to weave a story around interesting facts and historical accounts.

I wrote some short story for one of the free story writing websites and one of them garnered more than a thousand views. I started getting emails with people telling me they liked the story and it made them forget their daily routine. It was loosely based on a guy trapped in an Earth like planet. That's where this novel began.
