Excerpts from the candid chat:

What made you come up with this YouTube series titled 바카라˜Storytime With Sudha Amma바카라™? And what is the idea behind this whole show?

I always wrote books. I was never into digital. So, my daughter-in-law Aparna Krishnan and my son Rohan Murthy did some research and they found out that today바카라™s generation, if it is the digital media, right after they see the stories it will be etched in their mind. So, they came up with the idea of converting some of the stories into a digital form and it is the work of my daughter-in-law.

You바카라™ve written several books and they really sell like hotcakes and they바카라™re always filled with stories which are so very relatable. Are all the stories you write from personal experience or are any of them based on fiction?

No. It depends. For example, my foundation experiences are my own personal expenses. They are my own personal experiences and they are my foundation stories. Like 3000 speeches here, there, everywhere. The day I stopped drinking milk, the old man was God-wise and otherwise. These are all my personal true experiences. Whereas when I write for children, they are fictional.

So, in today바카라™s times, kids aren바카라™t getting much time to spend with their grandparents listening to their life stories. With this, are you trying to bring back the whole culture of grandparents telling stories with the show of yours?

Actually, today it바카라™s in reality, grandparents stay somewhere else. Houses have become small. It is difficult to live in a joint family. Both husband and wife are working. Everyone likes to have their own small family. So, the kind of interaction between grandparents and grandchildren has reduced due to so many reasons. Right now, every purpose of a story is to give a value-based story. Without telling you, you should do these things. You tell a story and if you are good, what happens? If you are bad, what happens? So, these stories are meant to teach you a good value system.

You바카라™ve been to so many places and you바카라™ve achieved so much in life. So, what is the one thing that keeps you so grounded?

It is love for learning I suppose. I love to learn every day, new things.

What바카라™s the secret behind your happiness? Any tips which you can give your readers or the people who are going to watch the show?

I바카라™m not greedy. That바카라™s the reason (laughs).

A film is being made about you and your husband. How do you feel about it? And have you by any chance met any directors per se?

I바카라™m not into that at all. I바카라™m happy with my books and my stories. I really do not know anything much about it.

What is your message to the kids when they watch this show? What should they look forward to?

Please enjoy the show. There are simple shows, there are simple stories. But each story has certain values.
