Modern-Day Fairy Tale (Book Review)


Book: The Bodyguard (Kindle edition)

Author: Ruchi Singh

Sold by: Amazon Asia-Pacific Holdings Private Limited

The Bodyguard is a modern-day fairy tale which has a good blend of suspense and romance. The plot though not very unusual is that of a rich and handsome guy falling for a not-so-rich and strong girl. What adds to this simple plot is the suspense that starts building right from the beginning.



Former army personnel Esha Sinha is appointed as bodyguard to the millionaire Vikramaditya Seth Jr.  They are both young and attracted to each other so no brownies for guessing the sizzling chemistry between the two. Seth Jr. needs security to as there is/are assassin(s) putting their soul and heart to kill him. Why? That’s the suspense and you definitely need to swipe the pages on Kindle book to know that.

While the romance element, nothing unusual could be interesting to read, the suspense and thrill that ropes all the characters under scanner.      

The plot has been nicely carved by the author Ruchi Singh and she successfully builds up each character as much as the suspense.  

Overall, The Bodyguard is an interesting read as it captures your interest with a good mix of plot, characters and the flow of the story.

Last but not the least, the cover image of the e-book is quite interesting, it screams for attention, won’t you agree?

My Rating: 4 stars

You Hired Smart Talent. But Are You Training Them Right?

Every year, organizations hire bright interns and freshers from top institutes. They come in with promise, potential, and the right intent. But somewhere between onboarding and execution, something quietly breaks. Not because they lack capability. But because they’re not really trained, properly. In many workplaces, especially in fast-paced functions like communications, freshers are given tasks, targets, and timelines, but not the depth required to execute them well. Take something as simple as media outreach.

Draupadi - Action Prevails Emotions

The woman of Kaliyuga…. before the Kaliyuga descended One of the few very clear memories I still have of my childhood is when my mother was feeding me lunch and we were happily chatting about Mahabharata. While talking, I said ‘when I grow up, I want to become Draupadi’. She yelled at me ‘ pagal ho gayi ho kya?, kuch bhi bak bak karti ho. Khana khao chup chap ’. I was taken aback by her sudden anger. Barely 7-8 years of age, I didn’t quite understand the reason for her annoyance, then. Today, after decades I certainly do. Indeed, I do understand, why a mother wouldn’t want her daughter to become Draupadi or even get closer to what she suffered. All said and done, she was the heroine of the one of the only two greatest epics of the country’s history – Mahabharata.
