Book Promotion in Jaipur-
I was in Jaipur a few days back, the purpose of the visit was dual to promote my book as well to attend the 3rd reunion of ex-students of sports college Lucknow.
But here I am talking about my media interaction to promote my debut book I am not Guilty-Kasab.
My friend Naval k Sharma from Jaipur to help me to invite the media, he had arranged the venue called Jawahar Kala Kendra's cafe and it's really good for quick and go.
Naval Bhai manage good media almost all Hindi one, in Jaipur if Rajasthan Patrika and Dainik Bhaskar cover then rest of the media is bonus, I know to get in Times is tough for marketing policy due to media net but bit surprised for DNA which was also not interested it should be after all I am unknown writer and I don't have any known celebrity to launched the book that day.
Amrita Morya editor of Dessert Trail I know her since long I told her to support me for my first book and she was right there not only to cover even for moral support thank you Amrita ji.
My interaction with media is quite interesting like Anurag Trivedi from Rajasthan Patrika asked me why your this book #Iamnotguilty #Kasab and forthcoming book Spot Fixing no ball 2 crore based on Pakistan I replied because my both the subject based on them.
Rakesh from Samachar Jagat and Anurag Bhardwaj from Satyagrah.com asked me how can Kasab was not guilty, I love Anurag's bouncers and finally, I have to accept that title is a marketing gimmick to sell the book Anurag has a vast knowledge of the different subject which is not very common in today's media.
Finally, Rakesh did not publish and said to Naval bhai I am not satisfied with the title as well answer from the writer but anyways his newspaper published the story from other sources.
I am eagerly waiting for Bhardwaj's Satyagrah write-up Emaran Shaikh of Daily news also published well.
By evening we had gone to Rajasthan Government Library Naval Ji look after there PR to and that day was Vivekanand Jayanti and there was a function after that I meet the library head He guide me how I can approach different Libraries of State's.
Dainik Bhaskar could not turn up so we reached their office and meet the feature editor Prerana and journalist Mamta and they told me to carry the story but they didn't.
Naval Ji was a bit upset that DNA not covering too I told him don't worry a day will come when not only DNA but also Times and all big media will after me to for the coverage so let's wait and watch my day will come soon.
Thank you Naval k Sharma for all your efforts.
Love you all the media yes media or no media.
