6th July 2018 7:36 AM Thane Railway Station I reached platform 10, short of breath, smiling at the same time, to see my 7:35 Thane - Nerul train still at the platform, a whole minute late – as if it was waiting for me. Running to catch a train at the age of 36 isn’t a wise … Continue reading The Observer
BLOG UPDATE | JANUARY 2021
Hello, hello, hello! Surprised to see me posting here after a span of 1.5 years? Me too. I can’t wait to see how crooked my grammar is going to be in the upcoming paragraphs. 2020 was a year everyone would like to forget, and it seems fitting there was not even a single post from … Continue reading BLOG UPDATE | JANUARY 2021
Blog update | June 2019
नमस्ते! Yes. Yes. I’m alive. Don’t act surprised now. You know the drill - my blog is generally dead for the first half of the year and it comes out alive once June arrives. So, how was life in the last ‘few’ (6) months that I didn’t pen a single word here? Definitely not as … Continue reading Blog update | June 2019

CHAPTER 07: REVERSAL | PROJECT CHRONOS
I landed in 1938, but it wasn't as smooth as expected. The machine had a rough landing, and it crashed into a tree. I was lucky enough to escape unhurt. The damage that Peter and his guards dealt to the machine was now becoming clear. It didn't land at the intended location either. Instead of … Continue reading CHAPTER 07: REVERSAL | PROJECT CHRONOS
CHAPTER 06: EPIPHANY | PROJECT CHRONOS
At that very instant I realised that I have made a mistake of disrespecting nature and her flow by taking things in my hands. I was terribly shook seeing the new timeline I have created by assassinating Hitler. But before I read the article, someone entered the room. I notice a lady in her late … Continue reading CHAPTER 06: EPIPHANY | PROJECT CHRONOS
CHAPTER 05: VOYAGE | PROJECT CHRONOS
At that very instant I realised I’ve disappeared from 1970 and that my most ambitious project of all time has become a success. I look around as I traverse through the time-space continuum.
