"'The Vault of Vishnu' is no different, just one difference that almost one half of the story is set in a land that I was not too familiar with -- China. I have made multiple trips (to China) in the last 18 months in order to find out what was the very unique connection between these two great lands which had so many things to share," said the 50-year-old author on Sunday during the launch of the book's cover.

"For authors like us, it is not the words that we worry about but whether we can get our readers to turn the page. I have really tried hard to make you all turn the pages of my new book effortlessly, and I hope it will be a very interesting read for you," he added.
