Acerca del autor
Born to a versatile father, Ratan Kumar took to writing stories and poems since his childhood, though his aim in life was to be a vocalist. He learned singing and performed in music programmes. He also learned painting and acting and has won prizes in competitions. But he gave up everything for his love of music.
As a victim of circumstances, he could not settle permanently at any particular place. He worked in a private company in Hyderabad for a few months but he disliked service and joined a religious association. He could not adjust to the way of life there either. Therefore, he left the association and tried to concentrate on singing. To support himself, he temporarily worked in some private schools as a teacher. While travelling from place to place, he had lost most of his work done during his teens and early youth. Side Effects of Infatuation is his first published story book that consists of eleven stories.Â
