Tamil actor, dancer and director Prabhu Deva has released an audio book about his personal and professional life. Prabhu Deva's autobiography in the audio format, titled Take It Easy Policy, has been released on publishing house Notion Press's reading app Bynge.
"The audio series is an honest tell-all about his life, chronicling his professional and personal life. The series delves into him being raised as a normal kid in Chennai to entering superstardom as a choreographer and an actor. Prabhu Deva sports many hats— he is a choreographer, an actor, a director and a producer. He is best known for choreographing songs such as ‘Muqabla’, ‘Urvasi Urvasi’ and ‘Kay Sera Sera’," says a release by Notion Press.
The book also touches upon the milestones of Prabhu Deva's life as well as other incidents, such as his first salary or meeting the iconic Michael Jackson (Prabhu Deva has often been called India's Michael Jackson because of his inimitable dance moves). Other topics such as his silent nature, why he sports a beard, his entry into Bollywood, marriage and other aspects of his life are discussed— and all of this in his own voice.
