I still remember spotting a tiny photo of a young Virat Kohli in the sports section of Navbharat Times when he must have been ten or eleven. There was something about that face—the confidence, the posture, the spark in the eyes—that made me think, “This boy will go far.” Watching him grow into one of the most consistent and focused players of this generation has been fascinating. So naturally, when I came across Think and Win Like Virat by Sfurti Sahare, I was curious. Would

When I first picked up The Secret is YOU, I didn’t expect much. The title sounds like something you’ve seen before — a familiar echo in the self-help space that often leans on broad inspiration. But surprisingly, this one turned out to be different. Not in a “this changed my life overnight” way, but in a quieter, more honest way that stayed with me longer than expected. The book is written by Namrata Agrawal, an MBA from NMIMS and a graduate of St. Xavier’s College, Kolkata.

Some books don’t just entertain — they stir something deep within. For those of us who believe that Indian mythology is not mythology but itihasa—our sacred Sanatan history—Sita and Ravana: The Last Battle is not just a retelling. It’s a revival. Inspired by Valmiki’s Adbhut Ramayana, Preetha Rajah Kannan’s latest offering doesn’t end with Ravana’s fall in Lanka. Instead, it dares to look beyond the traditional closure, revealing a threat even more formidable: Sahastra Ravana

There’s something about books that reveal the darker side of things we’ve grown up idolizing. Cricket, for instance, for most of us in India, is never just a sport. It’s emotion, memory, national pride, childhood nostalgia, and even identity. That’s precisely why The Game of Choices: Khaayega Ya Lagayega? by Anish Kumar's hits so hard. It doesn’t sit in the front row with the fans in blue. It pulls you behind the scenes, into the dark alleys of betting, manipulation, and mone

I received a review copy of Rewire Your Anxious Brain by Nick Trenton a couple of weeks ago, and it was on my list to get through by this week…TBH, I liked it. In today’s fast-paced professional world, anxiety seems to be something most of us are quietly dealing with—whether it’s from work pressure, personal struggles, or just the constant noise around us…and this book feels like a patient guide, helping you untangle what’s really happening inside your anxious mind, step by s
