What are you reading at the moment? What did you recently finish reading? What have you learnt from it?
I love Dan Brown and am just finishing The Lost Symbol. I am deeply interested in symbology and enigmatic codes.
 
The one book all leaders must read...
I feel that all leaders must read The Art of War by Sun Tzu
 
One book everyone in your sector should pick up...
I think The Road Ahead by Bill Gates is one book that everyone must read.  How I Play Golf by Tiger Woods is another that has truly inspired me.
 
What kind of books would you normally buy while travelling? 
I have a very eclectic taste in books.I would read anything from Glen Beck and Bill O’Rielly politics to Dan Brown to the Bihar School of Yoga.  I read a lot since I am on long flights very often and usually finish reading two to three books per flight.
 
Have you written any books? If not, do you plan to write in future?
I haven’t written any books so far, but I would definitely write someday. One of the books I write would most likely be a pictorial documentary of Roamware and the impact the company has had on the lives of billions of people.
 
The books you grew up with? What did you like most about it?
The books I grew up included most of the usual books/authors: Enid Blyton, Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, Amar Chitra Katha, Charles Dickens, TinTin and Asterix.
 
Your book shelf consists of....
I have thousands of books across a wide range of genres including anthropology, spiritualism, business, politics, chick lit, thrillers, pop fiction, art, photography, yoga and so on.
 
Where do you shop for books?
I usually shop for books on Amazon.com
 
Have your reading habits changed in the past four or five years? If so, how....
With frequent travel, my reading happens much more on planes
 
One book you cherish that you received as a gift... and who gave it to you. 
One book that I cherish is Conversations With God by Neale Donald Walsch. It was gifted to me by a very dear friend.
