विजयपत सिंघानिया म्हणजे भारतीय उद्योगसमूहातलं अग्रगण्य नाव. पण त्यांची ओळख फक्त रेमंड उद्योग समूहापुरती मर्यादित नाही. हा उद्योगपती ओळखला जातो त्याच्या अगम्य जिद्दीसाठी. मग ते हॉट एअर बलुनमधून ६९ हजार फुटांवरून उड्डाण घेणं असो वा छोट्या विमानातून केलेला विमान प्रवासाचा विक्रम असो. विजयपत आपल्या जीवनप्रवासातून नवा आदर्श घालून देतात. तर त्याच वेळी कौटुंबिक पातळीवर एका हतबल पित्याची कहाणीही ते सांगतात. आपल्या जीवनानुभवांवर कोणताही पडदा न टाकता अभिनिवेषहीन पद्धतीने मांडलेलं त्यांचं हे आत्मकथन म्हणूनच वाचकांवर मोहिनी टाकणारं ठरतं.
