The constant pressure of work can certainly become overwhelming at times. To escape from this, we tend to run away. It was a similar instance in a regular Wednesday night conversation when we decided to book our tickets and escape from the madness the very next day. The bus left on time from the ISBT…

“My purpose is to express my soul through art, music, and words—to create beauty that heals and inspires. I exist to be a mirror and a sanctuary for those who feel unseen, unheard, or unloved—especially within the queer community and those who’ve shaped my journey. Through my presence, I offer people the freedom to be fully themselves, the courage to heal, and the dignity of being truly respected. My life is a gentle rebellion against indifference—a living example of what it means to honor humanity, one heart at a time.”
Coffee aur Chai
Ek karnama aisa ho gaya,Coffee lover ko chai lover se pyaar ho gaya. Jisko bhati thi roasted beans ki khusbu,Aaj lete hain chai ki chuski ka swaad. Starbucks ke date ab ho gaye hain chyoos pe shift,Palak patta chaat bhi karte hain inke mood ko lift. South delhi aur north delhi ka mel hain nirala,Ab…
देश की मौत
मर चुका है,हर आदमी अंदर से मर चुका हैं।किसीकी मां, किसीका बाप,किसका भाई मर चुका हैं।सांसद में टेबल पीटते दलालों का,जमीर मर चुका हैं।अपने जमीन का हक मांगता,वो किसान मर चुका हैं।ऑक्सीजन के इंतजार में वो मरीज,सड़क पे मर चुका हैं।गोलियां चलाने वालो को सत्ता दी है,देखो यह देश ही मर चुका हैं।
Happiness: A state of Mind
After my last blog, I was asked if I had ever been happy throughout my entire life.The question also followed: Was I equally sad in my last relationship?If one scrolls down my blogs, they are filled with my feelings, which are unquestionably dark and sad. But again, they are pretty much real and part of…
A good-for-nothing average guy
It’s the pandemic of over communication that has led to an absence of self-belief. I still remember the last few weeks of my graduating year. I was called upon the stage and was awarded the “Best All-Rounder (Cultural)” award. It made it more special it was conveyed to me by one of my professors that…
I am otherwise a Straight man
A closet is perhaps the safest space, no wonder everyone is comfortable hiding there. I take pride in myself for being out and open. However, the journey of “finding myself” has been completely different from what it looks like now. My best friend’s mother always knew my love for him and was really apprehensive about…
Life in a 10×10
Well, I will be honest; the very first day I turned on the shower, I cried under it. You never have a say in your birth. That certainly is your parents’ decision. So is your school, your initial hobby classes, and the room you get to live into. Growing up in a working-class family, the…
Grey
Curved out a sheet from life,And made it the base.Choose the darkest shade to paint it,That matched the soul;So whatever is written would shine out.The board was unique,Second to non.Finest of the chalk was chosen,To write the name that would remain forever.Unaware, that the namesWould also bring a duster along;And someday each one would leave,erasing…
रंगो भरी ज़िन्दगी
इस आसमा सी हैं ये ज़िन्दगी। हर उगते और डूबते सूरज के साथ,ये भी अपना रंग बदलती हैं। उस अंधेरे आसमान का कद्रदान शायद ही कोई हो,पर उस अंधेरे में समाते सूरज को सब एक बार निहारते ज़रूर हैं। गर गौर से देखो,तो काफी बेरंग हैं ये रंगो भरी ज़िन्दगी। – अंकुर मंडल
Mera Satrangi Pyaar
Aaj mera pyaar aazad hain. Agar gaur se dekhu, to woh hamesha se hi aazad tha. Mere janm ke baad, Jab sabne mujhe god mein uthaya, Mere mathe ko chuma, Mujhe pyaar se gale lagaya. Woh pyaar hi to tha, Jo ek sparsh se mujhe unse ho gaya. Woh pyaar hi to tha, Jiski takat…
