About Neelam Kumar

Globally educated and widely travelled, Neelam is a Bestselling Author of 11 books.

Neelam Kumar holds a Masters degree in Journalism from the US, besides a Bachelors’ in Education, a Bachelors’ in English Literature and a P.G, in PR and Advertising. Trained in the art of writing bestsellers by India’s great litterateur and journalist, Mr Khushwant Singh (with whom she co-authored her bestseller “Our Favourite Indian Stories”) Neelam went on to write path-breaking books. Having succeeded in writing bestsellers, she is now open to writing books for others on a commercial basis.
On coming back to India from the U.S., after her Masters in Journalism, she was pained to see that despite the rising epidemic of cancer, there was no “motivational literature on cancer” in India. She decided to write one. "To Cancer with Love" (Hay house) soon became India’s first joyous book on cancer. Over the years, it has become a source of strength and positivity not only for the cancer-stricken and their caregivers, but also for those looking for hope and positivity amid life’s adversities.

"I am Invincible" is a book that will not only inspire or motivate its readers but will also keep one glued to it till its finish line. I am not a typical reader kind, a book needs to be very convincing to hold my concentration, all I have to say is that I read this book in one go. It's a book one should read and pass on to others.......it will never fail to motivate its readers.

This is an amazing book written by an amazing person...It is a must read .This book pulled at my heartstrings ...some of the stories left me in tears

Dr Shakuntala Kumar

When Neelam approached me to share my story with her for her book, I did. I have never shied from sharing my cancer experience or life experience in open with everyone. Never did I imagine she would make me a part of 13 amazing warrior stories, which she herself is with two victories over cancer. When I completed reading all of the stories, I felt I so humbled. I am usually a person who feels 'I am the best' and for me to humbled is not easy. Thank you Neelam for this Honor. This was much bigger than what I expected it to be..

Every generation looks down upon the next generation and has perceptions about them. Neelam and Rajeev with the help of their grandmom take this subject head-on to prove that if we open ourselves to possibilities a whole new and bright future opens up. We come to know why Gen Z's job hop, seems to work less as they focus on wellbeing, have short duration relationships and question authority . Through a process of taking inputs from Gen Z's and grandparents the authors have shown that helping each other helps them to understand the so-called generation gap and become a better person in the process. A book that throws light on multiple areas and will definitely make you think and be one a better person. Go grab a copy now.
