SmartMagz is a way that can change the way you experience your favourite magazines. SmartMagz are very different (both in its concept and the experience it provides) from the conventional PDF based eBooks that are available at present.
We are proud of bringing a smart book version of Achu’s Diary. This is first of its kind, integrating text, drawings, photos, audios, and videos inside a single self-contained book.
Achu’s Diary is a chronicle of a young boy living in the United States and his narrations to his grandfather in Kerala, India. There lives an Achu in each and every child, and there lives a Mutassan in every adult. This provides a good way to present the life to the coming generations.
This chronicle is aimed to be a dynamic one whereby we can publish more such experiences from more Achus and more grandpas. Look forward to the exciting journey ahead.
This book contains the anecdotes, some photos and some videos to give more details about the narration.
Just click on the videos to enjoy.

The stirrings of feelings right from those days when in his mother’s womb, thoughts, anxieties, opinions etc. he developed subsequently, mingled with his nostalgia for 350 years old illam where he was born, temples, ponds and sarppakavu nearby and the villages around are the reflected themes of his writings.
Achu dreams of India, its uniqueness of culture, values, rituals, traditions etc. He remembers the splendor of temple festivals with classical music, dance, other cultural events, pageant of decorated elephants, resonance of musical instruments, mesmerizing sounds of drums etc. which are unique to his motherland.
He equally cherishes and respects his foster motherland, USA, its system of education, freethinking, spirit of originality, adventure and developing self-confidence. These are inculcated in young minds from early school days to mould them into responsible world citizens.
These are all in this book.
