WP:BLP of a writer, with no strong claim to passing WP:AUTHOR and no evidence of the reliable source coverage needed to support it. The only potential claim of notability here is the assertion that her first book was a "bestseller" — but it fails to either source the fact or quantify what bestseller list it appeared on (i.e. making the Indian equivalent of the New York Times bestseller list would get her in the door here, while making India's Amazon sales list would not). And all we actually have for sourcing here is Goodreads, Amazon and a Q&A interview on an unreliable blog. As always, every writer who exists is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because her existence is nominally verified by promotional pages on Amazon or Goodreads; she must be the subject of media coverage about her for an article to become earned.
