Akash beautifully accomplishes the purpose of writing this book. He takes you on one of his life's most important journey's. It was truly a pleasure to be a part of his journey. It is an exceptionally inspirational book, and it teaches you nothing is impossible; if you want something you can get it, you just have to believe in yourself.

Mr. Shukla successfully blends the pain of being short with the pains of a gruesome surgical procedure into a fascinating story of struggle, support and triumph. This book is a must read for anyone considering Cosmetic Leg Lengthening surgery.

Hello there, I am looking forward to reading the final version!

This will be very interesting to read! I would like to congratulate the Shukla family for coming out of this struggle gracefully. I can't wait to read the book!

Heya Akash! I didn't realize how much publicity you had on the book, that is very cool. It is a great website :-) and it must have taken you ages, the hard work paid off!!

Hey Akash, I think the website is amazing there is so much work that you have put in to it and it really shows. The book looks like it will be a huge hit and quite inspirational for others to read. I had to stop going through the site because I had to start doing some work. But well done. Its fantastic!!

I am looking forward to read about your painful and brave journey to a confident and cleaver you.It sounds amazing and well written.

I am speechless........I am waiting for the book very eagerly but i can't promise you that i will be able to finish it. I am very proud of you for going through such a thing and reliving it in Measure of a Man.

Website is GREAT!

Hey Akash... Amazing courage you have for going through all that and yet still having a smile on your face...Im just looking forward to reading the full version. Best wishes

Wow, I read the summary section of your website on your book, and was once again amazed how a young guy like you made a hard decision that ultimately changed your life. You know, not that many people have so much faith and confidence at that age. I know I sure didn't, and sometimes still don't. And not that many people think that they can overcome fear. I'm really proud of you Akash... I truly am. And this website is pretty impressive!

Hey, Awesome website!!

OMG ... I went to your site and I cried.. I had no idea what you actually went through... I would have come by with chocolates and other goodies the whole time!!!! I honestly can not wait for your book!!! My mom has been sent your website and you might be hearing from her as well... I honestly hold you close to my heart, and this story, wow, you are like a hero to me... I am sooo proud to call you a friend!!!! I miss you hun!!!

WOW - from what I've read so far, your book is really very well written. I can't wait to read it! Congrats on all your hard work little bro!

I just had a 1 hour lunch break and have spent 55 minutes of it viewing your site. Amazing- is all I can say. I only have 5 mins so I will keep it brief!! I think it is fantastic. You should be so so so proud of yourself, because I am so so so so so so so so proud of you!!!! The pictures and the documentary are amazing. You come across so well, very mature, and genuine. Really well done. Big hugs!!!! And I love you, as always

I am very impressed. I thought I'd have a quick look and I've been distracted for the last hour. You were very good on the TV interviews and the short and male documentary was really well done. I can just imagine flicking through the channels here and seeing your face (and legs) on our screens in the UK. Well done, I'm really proud of you.

Hey Akash, how are you? I checked out the link for your book that you posted the other day, pretty amazing stuff.
