“Most people know about people who are successful but very few understand the journey that leads to success. Success is always good and bright but behind every success story there is a lot of struggle and pain. I think Varsha has done a tremendous job of essentially showcasing the journey behind success in her book. Everybody should read Wonder Girls.”
