A post shared by ALAYA F (@alayaf)

Alaya shared how she and her friends thoroughly enjoyed reading Kabir's book and his life story, which is essential and relatable even today. Kabir said that he had dedicated his book to all the youngsters who want to make this world a better place. 
 
Alaya also said that he found his grandfather's life so bold and ahead of its times. Kabir chuckled how there was a time when he was as young as Alaya and a rebel of the family. 

Kabir also shared, "I survived enormous successes and downfalls including bankruptcy in America. But I rose from all that... For readers, they can learn from my life, what did he do wrong that I shouldn't repeat... It's okay to fail, but not to give up. I've learnt from my failures and hope others do too."

If that wasn't enough, Alaya who proved to be a stunning and articulate host, even tested Kabir’s  Millennial lingo, and guess what, Kabir fared pretty well at it! And the duo continued their heart-to-heart tête-à-tête exchanging notes. Alaya shared how she realised she was a part of a family that had such a novel history to which Kabir said, "It's your history too, Alaya!"

Stories I Must Tell: The Emotional Life of an Actor’ is published by Westland Publishers (an Amazon Company). Readily available in bookstores or online. While it has met with an overwhelming response Kabir Bedi is all set to publish his book in Italy in association with one of the biggest publishers there.

All in all, it was an evening well spent with the adorable grandfather-granddaughter duo!
