“Everyone always tells me they ‘grew up’ with me. I really hope they don’t stop growing up with me!” says an affable, smiling Ruskin Bond, as he reflects on the love he receives from readers across ages.
In a lively Facebook chat with The Quint, the beloved ‘Rusty’ writer sings an old Bollywood ditty for us – whilst promising to sing more “the next time”. He also expresses delight at being called ‘the Indian Bond’, telling us how he actually had an uncle called James Bond, who was nothing like the fictional spy!
