The Divine Call

-

When we are young we do not realise
That some of us are not so wise.
Whoever’s born will someday die,
And no one can answer the question why.
Death is the biggest fear of all.
Each wants to avoid this diving call.
So, use every moment as a cherishable one,
Fill your life with a lot of fun,
Make today a memorable day,

Or else, you will someday have to pay!

Habitat – My First Performance Venue

In 2016, although I had written extensively, I had never actually performed open-mic poetry. Writing had always been my primary form of expression, with speaking coming second. So, when I decided to take the stage for my first performance at The Habitat in Khar, I was nervous, especially doing it alone. I wanted to build my confidence, and this seemed like the only way to do it. Coincidentally, 2016 was also the year The Habitat was founded. It became the place where I made my debut as an artist. The Habitat quickly became a safe space where I forged friendships with fellow poets and artists. I still remember the moment that turned my life around—stepping onto that dimly lit stage, microphone in hand. It felt like opening a door I had been too afraid to touch before.  Some of the people I shared space with over there are Zoheb Khan, Bikram Bumrah, Kunal Jhawar, Navaldeep Singh, Jackie Thakkar, Simar Singh, Aranya Johar, Rakesh Tiwari, Ramneek Singh, Hussain Haidry, Kartikey Sehgal,...

Time is running out. At least, this is what the protestors who gathered at a public meeting at Real Party Hall at Colaba Arthur Bunder Road at 4 PM on Saturday, April 5 th , 2025, believe. The skyline of Colaba was built over time – stone by stone and voice by voice.   It is this very same skyline which is at threat owing to the danger of the construction of the newly proposed passenger jetty being constructed near Radio Club which will affect the flow of traffic, especially near the Radio Club stretch and the iconic view of the Gateway of India.   To voice their opposition, residents have launched an online petition against the project garnering over 3,000 signatures. A special WhatsApp group has also been formed to organise peaceful protests, which has already been joined by over 2,000 members.   The petition, known as ‘Save Colaba: Stop the Jetty Project’ proposes that the jetty project is a mammoth 2-acre structure that will be constructed in a space that has no room ...
