A Glimpse of My World of Words

Humor & Satire

Life at sea, and life on land — both offer plenty to laugh at, if you have the right eyes. Here you’ll find tales in verse and prose, often absurd, occasionally outrageous, but always rooted in truth. From Ministers in rhyme to Panditjis in Panama, humour has long been my way of storytelling.

Childhood Memories

The narrow lanes of Amritsar, the dreamy heights of Shimla, the simple joys of growing up before screens — my childhood is a well I often draw from. These memoirs, written during quiet lockdown days and family visits to Australia, are an ode to innocence and wonder.

Hindi Poetry

From childhood, poetry was my playground. What began as little verses for parental praise evolved into humorous poems in college, and eventually became a lifelong passion. I write humorous and romantic poetry, both in English and Hindi.

China Diary

I lived and worked in China for nearly a decade, witnessing a nation racing ahead with determination and humility. I wrote about the people, the progress, and the paradoxes — and found my words embraced by a country I once knew little about. This diary is a bridge across cultures.

Social Media Posts

From Sulekha’s golden era to the Facebook timelines, my blogs trace decades of lived moments — reflections from the sea, musings from the mountains, glimpses of everyday life, and stories spun around people, places, and purpose. These words have been my anchor and compass.

English Poetry

From childhood, poetry was my playground. What began as little verses for parental praise evolved into humorous poems in college, and eventually became a lifelong passion.

Pictures

Some stories don’t need words. These are glimpses of my travels, ships, ports, people, moments frozen in time — each with a story behind it. Welcome to the visual logbook of my journey.

Short Stories

Brief tales with vivid characters and surprising turns. These stories capture slices of life—sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant—always aiming to leave you with a thought, a smile, or a memory that lingers.

Novels & Books

My books have lived quiet lives — born with passion, released with hope, and sometimes returned unopened. Yet they carry the essence of everything I’ve seen and written. From “Main Bhi Bana Minister” to Pee at Sea series, this space brings together my published (and soon-to-be) works.
