🪔 It’s #diwali season & I cannot recommend enough the perfect gift of the season, a book I’ve had the great pleasure of publishing. In ‘Triveni’ the latest collection of poems by one of my dearest writers #Gulzar sa’ab are poems that will stay with you forever 🪔

This playbook is ready (almost ready). All thanks to Dibyajyoti Sarma + Red River
