New piece in The Manifest:
How “cute” ads could be quietly fuelling chronic disease.

Not an anti-advertising rant — but we probably need to think a little harder about what we’re normalising.

Paid ₹398 for a Mocha at Starbucks, Hyderabad Airport. It was so cold and badly made that I had to gulp it down not sip.

Hearty congratulations to #BanuMushtaq on winning the #BookerPrize2025! A luminous voice from the subcontinent, her storytelling about "survival and resilience" resonates far beyond borders. Here's to many more tales that move, challenge, and endure. #BookerPrize #BanuMushtaq

Imagine being so warped that you joke about rape scenes like they’re casting choices. Pran saying “only good-looking women preferred” isn’t just vile—it’s peak rape culture. And Prabhu Chawla’s question? Disgust in a suit. This isn’t nostalgia. It’s rot.

[A.L.Sharada @ALSharada]

@Laadli_PF Time to celebrate our Laadlis. A shout out to their parents who made it possible

India's women's roller derby team created history with the country's 1st medal @ the #WorldSkateGames2024 in Italy.
Led by #ShrutikaSarode, the team electrified the crowd with a commanding performance against China during a jaw-dropping women’s division bronze medal match.

@Laadli_PF @AzmiShabana Who could forget the powerful image of the young boy hurling a stone at the oppressor, the first spark of resistance? Shabana will always remain my favorite actress, deserving every accolade and award she has received.

[A.L.Sharada @ALSharada]

A true Warrior! More power to you!

Bravo @Phogat_Vinesh on beating the unbeaten Japanese Susaki to stage the biggest upset by an Indian @ the Olympics ever! Your exemplary courage, grit & determination even when attempts were made to drag you down have shown your mettle & done all of India proud.

@KiranManral So very true. Yet, it is so difficult to pull ourselves out of this mire of achievement society. Unfortunately, "me time" also becomes something that needs us to do something, achieve something :(

We need more such facilities to help transformed to confidently and fearlessly express their choices

Voice feminisation surgery for transwomen is a vital aspect of transitioning & more hospitals in metros are doing it. Recently, GT Hospital in Mumbai became the first govt institution to offer it free. Sumitra @mutinous101 & my story on how & why it’s a significant step forward

She made "Vagina", a taboo word, into a slogan of resistance. Happy Birthday

[Yögésh Leelā Pawār @powerofyogesh]

It takes extraordinary strength to go past the pain of abuse and use those feelings and emotions to support others in similar circumstances! Thank you & happy birthday!!

I think there is a need to improve the systems of hiring, screening and also training of the service providers on being good professionals. There is no other option. Be it UBER, OLA, UC OR JUST DIAL, the service is pits!

[Yögésh Leelā Pawār @powerofyogesh]

@urbancompany_UC What kind of scam are you running? 3rd time in a row following a booking its been a no-show. Worse! You don't cancel from your side for days & charge us? Eg. Your app here still says Abhay's arriving but when we spoke to him he said he's in his village in UP!

[A.L.Sharada @ALSharada]

Veeresalingam Pantulu's legacy of championing social reform and gender equality and his courage to challenge societal norms resonate with us. We @ Laadli honor his contributions by continuing to advocate for a more inclusive society. #VeeresalingamJayanti #SocialChange" #Laadli

On his 176th Jayanti, salutations to social reformer & writer K Veeresalingam. Despite stiff opposition, this father of Telugu Renaissance promoted women's education & widow remarriage & opposed dowry & child marriage. His 'Rajasekhara Charitramu' is called Telugu's 1st novel.

● Unity is meaningless without the accompaniment of women.
.....
● Education is fruitless without educated women.
&
● Agitation is incomplete without the strength of women....
