‘Bound to be some tamasha’: Sonia Gandhi’s second social media clip ahead of memoir release

Ahead of the release of her memoir, 'Belonging: A Journey of Love,' on November 10, Congress party chairperson Sonia Gandhi took to Instagram and X to share a preview. In her second video post, she addressed concerns over inaccurate accounts of her life, stating that it was time she shared her own narrative. Reflecting on the forthcoming book's potential impact, she anticipated various reader reactions and acknowledged the controversy surrounding its launch, noting that "there's bound to be some tamasha when this book comes out."

The social media clip showcased Gandhi going through her memoir, contemplating which parts of her life story to share. As she began recounting her relationship with late husband Rajiv Gandhi, who was offered the prime minister's position against her opposition, she left the thought unfinished. The book, published by HarperCollins India, traces Gandhi's life from her Italian childhood to her life in India, covering her marriage, family tragedies, and political career.
