      Shantanu Datta

      Freelance contributor

      A career writer, editor and communications specialist, Shantanu Datta has worked in several newspapers across different metropolitan cities in India, the last one being The Indian Express, New Delhi. A new immigrant to Canada, Shantanu likes to read, write, daydream about his first book, and is learning to cook (a process going on for the last several, ahem, years).
