For him, history is not just a record of the past events, as he does not go by the official or popular version of history. With his meticulous attention to detail and relentless pursuit of knowledge, he delves deep into history and comes out with Truth which has been distorted, twisted and dictated by left-leaning historians and chroniclers of India's political and social history of a Hindu India. He has authored several books on subjects like history, literature and society. His book Living as Equals deals with the evolution of the caste system, boldly exposing its shortcomings in Hindu literature. His other works such as Harappa, Tamil Sangam, and Rig Veda continues to evoke the inquisitiveness of the reader, while paving the way for passing open judgments by the readers. He completed his education from Annamalai University, Chidambaram, Tamilnadu.
