Runki talks about her growing interest in music, and she gives the entire credit to her grandmother and Guruji passionately candidly, which brings out her burning zest for life. She further talks about her learning experiences in music and about her events. The book is not just about Indian classical music but also about other Regional, Pop/Rock, and Contemporary music. According to Runki, the title of the book draws from a famous quote by Rock legend Richie Havens.
Once asked what the future of Rock music was, Richie, Havens famously replied, “The future of Rock belongs to 12-year-olds; and, in the future, it’ll belong to 8-year-olds and then to 4-year-old, and then we’ll have a world full of babies; because babies are pure, you know, just arrived, so to say. They have all the purity in them, and Rock music helps them stay that way as more and more young generations take to this music form.”
