It may sound very strange, but I love the freedom that writing a novel gives me. It is an unhindered experience. If I come after a bad day, I can decide that my protagonist will die on page 100 of my novel in a 350-page story.

There has to be a protagonist who has to overcome challenges, and there will be a race to finish.

I would imagine that anyone picking up a book written by me would expect a fast-paced story that requires minimal effort to turn the pages. The reader would also be looking for some out-of-the-ordinary revelations along the way. At the end of the day, I'm a writer who simply loves revealing stuff that is out-of-the-ordinary.

Our country has the oldest tradition of storytelling, and this was much before writing stories even became a norm.
Ashwin Sanghi
What is divine? It is simply that which man has not been able to understand. Once you do, it loses its divinity.
Ashwin Sanghi
I want to be remembered as a storyteller more than someone who had something meaningful to say.
