Super narration marred by the songs

The songs are distracting. It would have been better to leave the performance to Girish Karnad’s superb voice.

A great book by the greatest icon of our times

An extremely inspiring book that fills your heart with a surge of hope, self-belief, incredible life-lessons and love for your motherland. What a great son of India was Dr Kalam. So selfless and unassuming and brilliant beyond amazement! It’s an honour to have lived when he inhabited this planet.
