The English  language scares him, but call it an irony of the education system that he can write only in English.Slightly introvert by nature, he believes in understanding rather than saying.

Music comes naturally to him, and if you were to believe his friends, they say that he is a far better singer than a writer. This is his first book, but not the last.
