"We didn't talk about food. I read up on my notes on the food bits for you,' exclaimed the indomitable Bachi Karkaria at the end of my interview of her on her latest book, Capture The Dream. Her biography of the late Captain C.P. Krishnan Nair, the founder of the Leela Group. Truth be told, this very readable book left me with so much food for thought that I forgot to ask Bachi about the role the Captain's mother's prawn pickle and his wife Leela's prawn curries played in shaping his rather eventful life. So WHAT did we talk about? For that you have to click and listen and at the end is a bonus, a masterclass on journalism by Bachi. This is part 1 of our chat Do click on like if you enjoyed the chat, share the episode, subscribe to the channel and above all, buy the book. #book #bookpodcast #amwriting bachikarkaria #captainnair #leelalace #bleedingmadras #leelahotels #finetlychoppedTV #radiofinelychopped #kerala #curry #hotel #besthotels #kalyankarmakar #finelychoppedpodcasts
