In the team I am someone who feels I can help youngsters with what I have learned from my mistakes and always keep the team in great spirits. After cancer when I found out how many cancer patients there are in India, I learned that I belong to a much bigger group of people. I can imagine they may be lonely, confused, scared. So, I wanted to share my ups and downs. Guys, we are one team. I am thrilled that Random House India have joined me in giving shape to this book. I am thrilled also at the coincidence that they published Lance Armstrong\u2019s book. I can\u2019t wait to see this book become a reality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Random House India will publish In Different Form on 12th December 2012 in hardback and also special leather-bound edition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Delhi: Random House India is delighted to announce the acquisition of Yuvraj Singh\u2019s memoir In Different Form, to be published in December 2012.\u00a0 Open, candid and intimate it will be a remarkably personal account of his journey through cancer \u2013 from denial and acceptance, from his battle to defeat the disease to the struggles [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[51],"tags":[5784,5783,520],"class_list":["post-8396","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-out-of-box","tag-in-different-form","tag-random-house-india","tag-yuvraj-singh"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Random House India announces acquisition of Yuvraj Singh\u2019s memoir &#039;In Different Form&#039;
