It brings me immense joy to learn that the ever-youthful and dashing film Kanwaljit Singh sir, has taken the time to read my book, "Wanderings in the Land of Mist: The Complete Story of Mussoorie." His feedback fills me with pride and ecstasy.

Sir's kind words, "A fine blend of information and heartbeat. A riveting read!" validate the effort and passion I poured into writing this book and also inspire me to continue writing.
Thank you Kanwaljit sir
