“Notable Personalities” (An Achievers Inspiration) is a new book released on the theme of Bollywood penned down by author Niilesh A Raje. I liked the idea way the contents have been presented in this book. To cover the twelve personalities from varied backgrounds the author has divided the book into five different sections namely Writers, Actors, Lyricist, Singers and Villains to set the tone for easy reading. The motivating anecdotes in each of these articles reveals many facets of each of these personalities. Indeed a good read and inspiration for many.
