Thank you Sristhi Publishers, The Book Bakers, and Storyteller for the continued support.

The Statesman was the first English newspaper I read, or rather I was advised to read for a better command over English. To see my name and picture in the same paper for being a part of the Kolkata Crime Writers Festival at Storyteller Bookstore feels surreal. It’s equally wonderful to see both my books, ‘The Sanyasi who became a King’ and ‘Diary, Deceit and Death’ featured prominently in the article.
Baba was so excited that he immediately went out to grab a physical copy of the newspaper. I only wish Ma was still around to share this joy.
Heartfelt gratitude to my literary agent Suhail and The Book Bakers for being a part of my journey as an author. I’m grateful to my publishers – Arup Bose from Srishti Publishers & Distributors and Vishal Soni from Vishwakarma Publications for their continued support in all my bookish endeavours.
Thank you Amrita Di and Mayura for having me.

It was a thrilling experience at the Book launch of Bhaskar Som’s book ‘The Raja of Jongol Badi’ represented by Suhail’s literary agency, The Book Bakers and published by Om Books International at the Storyteller Bookstore on 17th May.. The panel discussion moderated by Souvik was engrossing as Anushila, Amritendu and I shared our journey as authors and book details while getting to delve deeper into Bhaskar Da’s book.
It was equally wonderful to see so many Kolkata TBB authors attending the event. Thank you for the warm welcome,Mayura and Cox Studios for the memento.

Diary, Deceit and Death:
The Sanyasi who became a King –
It’s going to help me improve my craft as an author.
And now a happy announcement to end the post. I’ve started working on the next book and it’s going to be a fresh detective thriller, although there’s going to be a major twist. Stay tuned to know more.
The fair was buzzing with people today. I went to sign copies of ‘Diary, Deceit Death’ in the Storyteller Stall and ‘The Sanyasi who became a King’ in the Sristhi Publishers Stall. A few friends had messaged that they would go tomorrow to pick up copies of my books, so I thought of keeping some signed for them. Besides it was the perfect time to meet Shouvik of Srishti Publishers & Distributors. Thank you Arup for the constant encouragement.
Signing copies at Storyteller Bookstore stall for the second time was a pleasure. Thank you Mayura for the support. A big thanks to Vishal Soni of Vishwakarma Publications and Uttam Patil for arranging this.
But it was a pleasant surprise when Basubhadra dropped in with her family to buy an author signed copy of ‘The Sanyasi who became a King’ for gifting. I know it’s her second copy of this book, so a tight hug to you, Rhea. After 33 years, Anupriya Banerjee Misra chose the book fair as the perfect venue for a reunion. Thank you for picking up both my books.
Suhail and team The Book Bakers , this wouldn’t have been possible without you. Thank you!
To those visiting the fair tomorrow, you can grab signed copies of my books at E-86 (The Sanyasi who became a King) and E-39 (Diary, Deceit and Death). Also, it’s the last day of the fair.
