Footprints in the sand.

Footprints in the Sand, by my former MBA Director and personal idol, is a motivating book consisting of strength, hope, and deeply bonding feelings. Being one of my favorite mentors, her life mirrors determination and positivity, making readers highly inspired to move ahead with confidence.

This book is an emotional rollercoaster! Written by my aunt, Dr. Padmaja Devi. It's a beautifully crafted story about our ancestors and their lives. I felt so privileged to be a part of this great and beautiful family history. The writing is amazing, and I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a good family saga. My most treasured sections were those devoted to my grandfather, whom I never met but heard so many great things about, and the 'lady lion' of our family, my grandmother. It is deeply moving to realize that the life we enjoy today is a direct reflection of their enduring legacy. It's a story that will stay with the readers and must be passed down to generations for sure! ❤️?

Beautifully Written Book!

This book beautifully captures our family’s story and history. It’s heartfelt, inspiring, and will serve as a wonderful keepsake for future generations to understand where they come from. Truly a treasure!

My dearest valiamma's book. Could know more about my ammoma, my valiammas, amma and whole family.

Loved reading it.

Enjoyed reading the book. Mainly as it's about our amma's childhood (though she has told me all these) reading it was totally a new experience and put me into tears many times.

Expecting more write ups from you dear chechi. Appreciate the effort taken behind ?

Padmaja Devi ma’am has been one of the most inspiring mentors in my academic journey. She is not only an exceptional leader but also one of my favorite mentors. Ma’am has always guided us with immense knowledge, wisdom, and enthusiasm, inspiring us to aim for the best. Beyond being a remarkable mentor and teacher, she is an individual filled with love and compassion, making every interaction with her truly meaningful.

On this proud journey of hers she has published her book and I am so happy to have been under her guidance. So happy for you ma'am.

Dr. Padmaja Devi was my director of MBA college, she was an amazing lady with full of enthusiasm and love. She always guides students in the most right way. She had always supported us and we all loved her so much. Each wording in her book will be powerful as she is.

My sister Adv. Padmaja Devi, has given our family a gift—a beautifully written, permanent record of who we are and where we come from through 'Footprints in the Sand'. It’s a book for us, but it’s also a book for anyone who believes that the stories of ordinary families are truly extraordinary.

This is a wonderful book; it took me on a rollercoaster of emotions and left me feeling deeply nostalgic. It powerfully portrays our elders—the people who built the foundation for the privileged lives we enjoy today. Their stories are a legacy our children, and future generations, absolutely need to know.

It's a good book; reading it gives me a rollercoaster of emotions. It also makes me nostalgic. The people in the book, our elders, the ones who made our lives this privileged, which should be known to our children and theirs.?

My aunt, Dr. Padmaja Devi, has beautifully encapsulated our family history into chapters for us to read. I had an amazing time reading and getting to know a lot more about my parents, my aunts and uncles and my distant relatives. My favorite part of the book was getting to know more about my best friend, my grandma. It's a beautiful personalised read with a lot of heart warming and simple real life stories, making you feel like you're part of the family.
