Campaign on school education and children in labour

• Health

While I was bed ridden, I was fortunate to have my family and close friends around me. But, there were always the unexpected visitors who would drop by, leaving a trail of hilariously awkward statements in their wake.

• Health

Life can change in an instant. One moment, you're walking in the most beautiful environment. The next, you find yourself immobilized with an severe ankle fracture, facing a challenging journey towards recovery. Healing from an ankle fracture is not just a physical process; it's a mental and emotional one. But wait, let’s start at the beginning.

• India
• Travel

Who doesn’t like to unwind after a long day with a glass of wine? I have always been a wine person and preferred international wines more than their Indian counterparts as many Indian wines tend to be fruitier. I had never visited India’s own Sula Vineyards until recently. I was looking for a place to escape for the weekend and came across its website. I thought to myself – why not? It would be fun to visit a winery for its beauty alone. I am so glad I went.

• Random Musings
• Travel

Be it while driving, or in any queues at the bank or the airport, we all have encountered the “me first” syndrome. I was recently travelling back to Mumbai from New Delhi. I entered the Delhi airport and stopped for microsecond to look for the Indigo counter, when someone behind me exclaimed “ excuse me !!!” (Three exclamation marks, I know, are redundant but they prove a point here - she was rude !!!)

• Coonoor
• Nature
• Travel

Tucked away amidst the lush greenery of the Nilgiri Hills in Tamil Nadu, India, lies a hidden gem that promises a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life – the Ralliah Dam in Coonoor. This picturesque dam, surrounded by breath-taking landscapes and enveloped in tranquillity, offers visitors a chance to connect with nature and experience the essence of calmness.

• New York
• Travel

There's a place on this planet where dreams are made, ambitions flourish, and diversity thrives like nowhere else. A place that has inspired countless artists, writers, and dreamers. That place is none other than the iconic New York City, the Big Apple, the Empire City, or simply "The City" for its residents.

• Abortion
• Health

My experience of working on abortion and women’s health and rights in India and South Africa. I had been freelancing for several years when personal reasons and the desire to learn more about health and development issues led me to signing up for a 9-to-5 job. From 2015 onwards, I started working full time with a global health communications and advocacy firm. I enjoyed working on and learning about different health issues and advocacy skills and tools. In 2017, I got an opportunity to manage a project on safe abortion in India and South Africa and this project fueled my passion for women’s rights and human rights.
