Who This Author Is

Sonia Singh blends sharp observation with wry humor in narratives that probe fame, identity, and the unseen threads of public life. Her debut, Bollywood Confidential, mixes insider detail and personal doubt to explore ambition and the price of visibility within India’s movie world and its culture of image-making.

In Ghost, Interrupted Singh shifts to a more introspective, unsettling mode, tracking grief and memory through charged, atmospheric scenes. The novel leans on mood and fragmented perspective to examine how past lives linger in ordinary moments, and how personal hauntings shape present choices.
