Answers
- I wouldn’t have written so many of them, had it not been easy (laughs).
- You have to train your mind to think like a child’s to be able to write that.
- It’s lovely to write for the youngsters because through your story, you can teach them the lessons of life.
- I was brought up in an era where there was, fortunately, no television and no electronic gadgets.
- The only way to entertain yourself was with books.
- 60 years back, there were lots of books that spoke about mythology so unknowingly.
- I learnt a lot about mythology, and it deepened my interest in the subject.
- Later, I read about mythology from different countries and different Ramayanas from our own country.
- So I had many versions in my mind. That’s when it struck me that these kind of stories should be written for young adults.
- In fact, it’s great for mothers too. Because a lot of stories are passed on to children by their mothers.

Answer:
The writer known for writing child-friendly, yet mature stories, talks about why mythology fascinates her; gradual inclination towards non-fiction, and her other side — the movie buff.
Award winning author and Padma Shri, Sudha Murthy’s latest book, The Upside Down King, is a collection of stories of Ram and Krishna — two most popular avatars of Vishnu. This is the third book in her series of books that focus on the untold stories in Indian mythology, the other two being — The Serpent’s Revenge: Unusual Tales from the Mahabharata and The Man from the Egg: Unusual Tales about the Trinity. In an interaction, the prolific writer, who launched her book at the Crossword Bookstores in Mumbai, who is also a philanthropist (she is the chairperson of the Infosys Foundation that supports education, healthcare, rural development, etc) spoke about mythology as a genre, writing for children and why she aspired to be a film journalist.
