About dreams and dreamers - An invite

"Dream - for they come true " is something I always believed in. Eternal dreamer is how I have always wanted to be known as for I dream with both my eyes open and close. One such dream was to be an editor of a magazine. I always wanted one day my sign to read as Editor for various reasons. One I have always been in love with the written word and two a magazine's editor as per was a dream job to be in. To just keep writing and reading , who wouldn't love such a job!

And as they say when you dare to dream the whole Universe conspires to make your dreams come true and it did happen. This dream was there in my eyes since I don't know when and finally this dream came true last month when one of my close friends Arti and me came together to start Writer's Ezine - an online magazine where we bring together poets, writers, photographers and story tellers.
 
We are looking at releasing our first issue in April 2014 and for that I would like to extend a warm invite to each one of you:
 
 
Looking forward to your best wishes as always and would love to see each one of you there!

Movie Review: If by Tathagata Ghosh – A Tender Portrait of Love, Loss, and Possibility

If , a 26-minute short film by acclaimed Bengali filmmaker Tathagata Ghosh, is a sensitive, evocative piece of storytelling that lingers long after the credits roll. Set against the everyday rhythm of life in Kolkata, the film delicately unpacks the story of a lesbian couple torn apart by the weight of societal expectations and dares to imagine a different future, one where a mother's love might just change everything.  What struck me first was the film’s raw, grounded realism. The characters feel like people we know, middle-class families navigating a complex world with quiet resilience. The world of If is filled with silences, glances, and stills, rather than heavy dialogue. Ghosh masterfully uses these moments to speak volumes, allowing viewers to sit with discomfort, interpret the unspoken, and feel deeply.

Book Review: The Story of Eve: Selected Poems by Zehra Nigah

Few voices in Urdu poetry have carried the weight of history, resistance, and deep personal introspection quite like Zehra Nigah. One of the first women to break into the traditionally male-dominated world of Urdu poetry, Nigah’s work stands as a testament to the power of words to illuminate, question, and challenge. The Story of Eve: Selected Poems, translated by Rakshanda Jalil, brings together some of her most powerful nazms and ghazals, showcasing both her literary elegance and her unflinching gaze at the human condition, particularly through the lens of gender, social injustice, and political turmoil.
