Those who love to read on their mobile devices mostly prefer Amazon’s Kindle or rely on Google Play books or Apple’s iBooks. Then there are plenty of e-books apps for Android and iOS devices. Juggernaut is the new kid in the block and is dedicated to the Indian audiences as well as writers. It has just launched its first application for Android, and has already created a lot of buzz with its association with film actress Sunny Leone, who debuts as an author on the platform.
Sunny Leone’s first book is titled Sweet Dreams, which will be released in seven parts. The book is priced at Rs 49.50. Juggernaut promises to launch each part at 10:00pm. The book has so far received 4 out of 5 ratings.
Besides Sunny Leone, authors like William Dalrymple and former McKinsey chief Rajat Gupta are a few top names to be part of the new publishing platform. Juggernaut aims to help more Indians read books as well as encourage them to write.
