A letter to Maa

Published on अक्तुबर 22, 2008

Dear Mummyji,
I don’t remember, when I last wrote a letter with my pen and am not sure if I can write too as my handwriting is going from bad to worse, and I’m sure you won’t understand even a single syllable if I put down words in blue ink.
Any way, what’s more important is the [...]


My daughter’s first Rakhi with her father

Published on अगस्त 18, 2008

Dear Betu,
I know you hate reading long mails, but I feel that I should document this emotion so that at least for me, that this Rakhi Day gets documented into my history at least. It was one of the happiest days of my life. But something went missing. My hug and a kiss on your [...]


Folklores and spirituality

Published on जुलाई 24, 2008

Hi Apna,

Don’t be an escapist sis

Published on

Dear Betu,
I’m sorry, for having hurt you. The intention was not to hurt you, but to make realise, that you should not be an escapist. You miss somebody, but think about the members who miss him more. Your escapism will make them only feel that they’ve not lost him but others as well along with [...]


Women: Congratulations or consolation

Published on अप्रैल 28, 2008

Dear Mummyji,
I’d read most of your ramblings on “Women” on your blog. These past few days have been a realisation that the biggest enemy of a woman is a woman and not a man (as it is said). Some time back I’d read that a man’s best friend is a man (in Men are from [...]
