The Hindu Lit for Life literature festival in Chennai was one of the liveliest and most attractive of my experience. It was heartening to find the written word so loved, discussed and celebrated.
A marvellous event.
With its combination of world literary figures, Indian luminaries and dynamic students, it hosts conversations that simply cannot be found anywhere else. A transformational event in a country that is going from strength to strength in terms of its literary scene!
I was delighted to be part of The Hindu Lit for Life 2014. This is one festival that is truly about books, writers and readers without any other bells and whistles. Almost stark in its simplicity, The Hindu Lit for Life is a refreshing change from the usual lit fest circuit. A festival that I actually look forward to!

As we mourn the passing away of veteran actor #RishiKapoor, let us remember that he would like to be remembered with a smile and not with tears. #TBT 2017 when he graced LFL. Laugh and enjoy...he would not have wanted it any other way!
