I wrote about the rice-loving Bengali’s single-minded devotion to Luchi! For the @whetstone_mag South Asia Journal. Thrilled to see my byline in a publication I do admire! whetstonemagazine.com/south-asia-jou…
Another Bengal patachitra inspired work …in the spirit of the season.
Somehow the artist in me surfaces just when I should totally absolutely completely immerse myself in work. Tried my hands at Banglar patachitra….

When In Vogue Life Magazine got in touch showing interest in my art and asking me to write about it, I was a little reluctant. I am artist, I thought, at least not in a professional, invested-for-life, formally trained kind of way. But I wrote it anyway….
One of my personal favourites! For @scroll_in

Looking to get in touch with old families/residents of Varanasi/ Kashi for a story. Help connect please!
Just finished reading Knife by @SalmanRushdie At a time when I am wading through (barely) the sticky, sludgy waters of grief, I didn’t quite expect this book to bring me, of all things, comfort.
