This story is told straight from the heart. Anoushka Shankar, inheritor of her father's musical legacy, unfolds the pages of maestro's eventful life with an ebullient spontaneity, so characteristic of her. Intimate and seldom seen photographs from family albums, snatches from personal letters that tug at the heartstrings, anecdotal captions that arouse laughter here, pathos there.

Anoushka's honest revelation of the man who 'doesn't take himself too seriously' is devoid of honeyed phrases and ceremonial salutations.
