Anju Poddar’s
journey over the years has led her across the world, from the US where she received a BE, all the way to the peak of Mount Kailash. She shares her cultural experiences and assimilated knowledge of the Indian traditions through a series of books that she has written over the past decade. Anju has authored seven books each of which covers a different aspect of our society.
Her first book, "A Journey to the Heavens", with a foreword by HH Dalai Lama is a detailed travel guide on Mansarovar and Mt. Kailash. "A Wedding in the House", is not only a guide on wedding planning but also a book that talks about the meaning of marriage. "Our festivals Our Traditions" promotes the importance of Hindu traditions and festivals. This book is a visual delight because each festival is depicted by a painting specially made for the book by senior artists. For example, the festival of Holi by M.F. Hussain. She is the coauthor of "Meals Menus & More", a book about menu planning using a diaspora of the delectable cuisines of India for various occasions from vrat ka khana to school tiffins and train travel. She has also coauthored with two friends, the latest of her books, "108 Shades of Divinity" which catalogues 108 places of worship of the diverse religions of India. Anju lives in Hyderabad with her husband Shri Vinod Poddar.
