As a kid my favorite hobby was to sneak peek into my cartoonist-writer father’s study. I loved the smell of ink and paint that hung in the room and started my own adventure-comics-series ‘Birdman’ at 10. Birdman became popular among my classmates and by 13 I was writing fiction regularly that would get published in magazines here and there. The teenagers’ magazine that I was editing since I was in grade 8, had reached a circulation of 4,000 by the time I was in grade 10, with some of the best writers contributing occasionally. I got noticed by the biggest publisher of Eastern India; Dey’s Publishing, and was given the offer to write a 400 page book for them. The first turning point came in my life with the publication of my first big book, ‘Nostradamus—The True Story’ at the age of 17. The book remained in the top 10 charts for 46 weeks! I was still in school then.

I started my career at a sprouting stage. I became a regular contributor of almost all of the best magazines of the market after this; remaining busy with both fiction as well as nonfiction writings. Between 1995 and 2000 I wrote three more books (thrillers); all of which became bestsellers. I ventured as a movie director and in 1998 when I directed my first mini series for Doordarshan, the no1 Asian television channel by popularity. This work for children was appreciated and I was hired by Channel 4 for their production, Gurubusters, featured under Equinox.

In 1999 I had a brainwave. I was studying the greeting card market of the 100 billion population India. I found out that the market was huge and was controlled by few players and largely dominated by English language greeting cards. I came to a decision that I will try out Indian language greeting cards for this enermous market. In 2000 I launched the world’s first Bengali language greeting cards that were out of stock in 7 days flat. My brand became the no1 selling Indian greeting card brand, and still reigns as the no. 1.

After working with National Geographic Channel as a journalist in 2005, for the X-Men series, and again with Channel 4, I focused fully into writing. I had become quite a sought after web content writer by the end of 2005, writing simultaneously for about 20 websites every month. From web content to sales pages; reviews to resume; books to ebooks—my name became known in the world of writing. I became a Wikipedia editor in 2005 and gained the friendship of people like Lee Bandoni (UK media tycoon & internet marketing guru), Gavin Tachibana, the Editor of Orkut.com (the popular community site of Google), Arfeen Khan (world famous management guru and writer) besides plenty of editors worldwide.

I have been preferred as a ghostwriter when it comes to writing the books of celebrities like Hollywood-Bollywood film stars to UK politicians. In 2006 I teamed up with the world famous UK media group Bandoni Media to start www.getmecontent.com; coordinated by me. The site www.getmecontent.com happens to be the most preferred and trusted site for people looking for web content, ghost writers, ebook/book writers, sales pages and related services and employs 25 of the finest chosen writers with vast experience. My other sites are www.copywriter.tk, and www.ghostwriters.tk.
