Arundhati Yts -

Roy was born to a Kerala-born mother, Mary Roy, and a Bengali father, Rajnarayan Roy. Her parents' interfaith marriage was a rarity in India at the time, and this diverse background would later influence her writing. Roy grew up in Kerala and Delhi, and her early life was marked by a love for books and a keen interest in politics.
