At 83, the inimitable Ruskin Bond, the man who wrote his first story when he was 16, shows no signs of slowing down. He has written over 500 short stories, essays and novels and is out with his new book 'Words from the Hills'. Speaking to NDTV, Mr Bond said, "I want to be born again as an Indian. The only difference between now and earlier is that earlier things happened and we didn't come to know of it, now with TV and digital media we know everything". The 83-year-old also shared his thoughts on TV news debates.
