She made the announcement through an emotional Facebook post that included a video of her performing a Kannada film song at a recent event.

In her social media disclosure, Kamath offered poignant insights into her early parenting challenges: "Within 10 months of marriage, my son Nithin was born and my life dedicated to Nithin and family! 7 years later, Nikhil was born and it was such a struggle to bring them up because they were not normal kids! Everyday was a challenge".

She hinted at revealing intimate child-rearing details in her book, adding, "My sons must know what I used to feed them, how I brought them up and all. Please wait and watch to know everything!"

This personal revelation provides a rare window into the family dynamics behind India's largest retail brokerage firm. While no publication date has been specified, the memoir promises to move beyond a simple chronology of events, instead offering an emotional account of the sacrifices and struggles that preceded Zerodha's creation.
