Character Interview: Akriti and Zayn


Tell us what When Our Worlds Collide is about?

Zayn: It’s about how I am the hot stud and this writer here falls head over heels in love with me.

Akriti: Grrr. Not at all. It is about a twenty three year old girl who is afraid to let anyone into her world. And then she meets  guy who forces her out of her shell…

What is the one thing that you love about yourselves?


Zayn: That I am smokin’ hot? No, jokes apart. I like how Zayn feels rootless because he was never allowed to settle down anywhere. I think a lot of children who have parents with transferable jobs would relate to that.

Akriti: I like the fact Akriti just pretends to be lost. She basically does not let anyone close to her because she knows the scars can be seen up close! She is so afraid of getting her heart broken, she plays it safe all the time.

What is your favorite book?


Akriti: It is hard to choose just one. I love reading.

Zayn: The Room on the Roof by Ruskin Bond.

Where do you see yourself in five years?


Akriti: Being a success, I guess.

Zayn: Settled.

Do you think we would read more about Akriti and Zayn’s adventures?


Akriti: More like misadventures. I am not too sure about that.

Zayn: I doubt we’d make it to another novel or novella. But, we just might be featured in short stories. Just keep a lookout for it!
