Radio channels did interviews before and after the launch too as well, covering my poetry’s in one and an interview with RJ Hrishikay in the other .
Ndtv covered the book release .
Few celebs helped me promote my book.
Parsis of face book whom I have never met in my life have given me such unconditional support that it further enhances my certainty that there is no community like us .
