Happy International Women’s Day 2025

Class 4 final exams just got over on the 5th and yesterday, the kid represented his school at an event celebrating Women’s Day. He gave a speech on ‘The most inspiring woman in my life – my mother’.

The speech

It was nothing short of an emotional moment for me to see the shy introvert grow into a confident speaker. 🧿

The certificate

This will always be my favourite Women’s Day ever.

8/2/25 – Day 3 of book signings at Kolkata Book Fair

The fair was buzzing with people today. I went to sign copies of ‘Diary, Deceit Death’ in the Storyteller Stall and ‘The Sanyasi who became a King’ in the Sristhi Publishers Stall. A few friends had messaged that they would go tomorrow to pick up copies of my books, so I thought of keeping some signed for them. Besides it was the perfect time to meet Shouvik of Srishti Publishers & Distributors. Thank you Arup for the constant encouragement.

Signing copies at Storyteller Bookstore stall for the second time was a pleasure. Thank you Mayura for the support. A big thanks to Vishal Soni of Vishwakarma Publications and Uttam Patil for arranging this.

But it was a pleasant surprise when Basubhadra dropped in with her family to buy an author signed copy of ‘The Sanyasi who became a King’ for gifting. I know it’s her second copy of this book, so a tight hug to you, Rhea. After 33 years, Anupriya Banerjee Misra chose the book fair as the perfect venue for a reunion. Thank you for picking up both my books.

Suhail and team The Book Bakers , this wouldn’t have been possible without you. Thank you!

To those visiting the fair tomorrow, you can grab signed copies of my books at E-86 (The Sanyasi who became a King) and E-39 (Diary, Deceit and Death). Also, it’s the last day of the fair.

Happy Saraswati Puja- 2025

The mandatory Saraswati Pujo rituals every year where the kid assists his Dadan in its preparation and during the puja. Since all the books are in front of the Goddess, it gives him the perfect excuse to spend the day with his cricket bat and ball. God save the house now.

Like every year, the kid’s books, books on writing (mine), medicine (husband’s) and Mathematics (Baba’s) occupy the major space in front and beside the Goddess. But this year, two new books have been added to this pile – books written by me. It gives me immense joy to see ‘Diary, Deceit and Death’ and ‘The Sanyasi who became a King’ here. May this be the beginning of many more books to come.

Happy Saraswati Pujo and Vasant Panchami to those who celebrate.
