Hugs are so underrated. Not the polite, half-hearted ones. I’m talking about those tight, real hugs- where your arms wrap around someone, and for a few seconds, both of you forget everything else. The noise fades. The chaos pauses. And all that remains is warmth. Yes, I am a hugger. Always have been. Even when…

कभी फिर मिलेंगे
चलो, कभी फिर मिलेंगे।किसी और ज़िंदगी,किसी और दुनिया में। जहाँ मेरी गुस्ताखियाँ कम हों,जहाँ मेरी नादानियाँ कम हों। जहाँ शायद मैं हो पाऊं थोड़ा और ज़िम्मेदार,जहाँ शायद मैं ले पाऊं इन कंधों पे और थोड़ी भार। जहाँ दोस्ती में कोई शर्त न रखी जाए,जहाँ सच्चा प्यार मिल पाए। जहाँ दिल में थोड़ी कम हो खटास,जहाँ…
To the World, With Love
I had this weird feeling on Monday mode,This might be my last day in this world’s abode. I had no regrets for the time I spent,My love for all was true, and I didn’t pretend. Only if I could have settled and secured my family,My soul could have parted and made a journey happily. Yet…

The lady at the shack
Well, I’m bad at remembering names, so I will simply call her Auntie. On my recent trip to Goa, she was working at Johnny’s Sand Dunes Shack right outside Hotel Goan Heritage on Calangute Beach. The very first morning when we went out for a walk, she greeted us with a big smile: “Aao sir,…
Bas ek din aur
Dil kehta hain is raat ki subha hi na ho,Kal is shareen mein rooh hi na ho.Mere liye kisi ki aankh mein aasu bhi na ho,Aur bicharne ke tarap ka ehsaas hi bhi na ho. Par dimag ki kashmakash hain kuch aur,kehta hain jee le,bas ek din aur. Kal shayad woh din tera ho,Shayad ho…
The Moments of Tranquillity
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…
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…
Dil
Dil apne liye hamesha hi pechide raste khojta hain, Kabhi ek raah to kabhi dusri pakadta hain. Galat raaste ko sahi maankar kabhi kabhi woh itna door chala jate hain, Ki wapas aana namumkin sa lagta hain. Aur kabhi kabhi us galti ko woh itna such maan lete hain, Ki galti ka ehsaas bhi nahi…
