Business World (India) calls Selfie of Success "a literary triumph...a comprehensive snapshot of what success is." The Week (India) opines that the author "tries to present a comprehensive and distinct perspective of success in this book. And he is successful in this effort."[5] DNA India calls the book "an honest approach to an elusive pursuit in human life."[6] The Hindu said the "book gives equal focus on side effects of success — ego; sins of success — arrogance, pride, greed and envy with examples of real life stories."[7] Actor and producer, Mahesh Babu, recommended the book as part of the #ReadingIsGoodChallenge initiative, drawing parallels to the Maharshi film.[8] [9] [10]
