We can change the way society views women today, by reinterpreting deeply-held modern religious beliefs, rather than attacking those beliefs … This is the crux of ‘Unbridled Shakti’, by India’s very own storyteller, Amish. In his first ever non-fiction book, the bestselling, Immortal Young Country, Timeless Civilisation, Amish helps you understand India like never before, through a series of sharp articles, nuanced speeches and intelligent debates. In the festive season, when India celebrates women as Shakti during Navaratri, Amish reminds us how the country needs to respect its women, and go back to the ancient principle of viewing men and women as equal.
Amish is an IIM (Kolkata) educated, banker turned award-winning author. The success of his debut book, The Immortals of Meluha (Book 1 of the Shiva Trilogy), encouraged him to give up a fourteen-year-old career in financial services to focus on writing. He is passionate about history, mythology and philosophy, finding beauty and meaning in all world religions.
His 7 books have sold over 5 million copies and been translated into 19 Indian & international languages. His Shiva Trilogy is the fastest-selling book series in Indian publishing history while his Ram Chandra Series is the second fastest-selling book series in Indian publishing history.
In 2019, Amish was appointed to a diplomatic role as Director , The Nehru Centre in London, India's premier cultural centre abroad.
Do you find yourself constantly complaining about about the state of the country that you live in? Or have expressed hopelessness for the future of India? . I would recommend you to pick up Immortal India by Amish not because he patronises our nation but because he is not shy to talk about real life issues that we face on daily basis living in India. . He provides a fresh and new perspective on issues such as corruption, politics, influence of western culture on youth and religion, backed by some serious research and knowledge. In process, it instills a sense of pride for the rich and timeless culture of our country and how this priceless civilization is losing its value due to lack of awareness and education. . I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and needless to say felt a sense of pride and hope for my country. I highly highly suggest everyone to pick a copy.
I haven't read the entire book as yet but I liked the idea of looking for alternative ways of bringing change than direct attacking the prevalent stereotypes
The views given are not substantiated enough. As far as I know, India used to be a society which valued women equally or more. Over a period of time and with so many attacks from Northern border front and assimilation of different culture have changed things over a longer period.

Women are empowered until the society brings up those who think otherwise. Amish has described so well about historical strong willed women that it is a short must read for me!
