A basic function of advertising is to create status anxiety in order to compel us to consume. How about a society based on love, respect and creativity, not consumerism and status? #Advertising#status#localeconomy
Literature is that which moves together with society and leads society towards true fulfillment and welfare by providing the inspiration to serve. The statement "Art for art's sake" is not acceptable; rather we should say, "Art for service and blessedness."

This is Aakashi & Shantanu Bhatt,
Another year … Another day in battle ..
As I pen this down, I sit here today juxtaposed between two worlds …
A world gone by, filled with happiness and togetherness and a world we are in today, torn apart from each other, fighting, and persevering against these fascist forces every second of every day …
Two days ago marked the 4th Father’s day when we remained separated from each other by this draconian regime .. and today marks the 4th year of your vitiated incarceration …. 5 years of you languishing in jail for a crime you did not commit.
As I walked through the overwhelming surge of nostalgic memories that washed over me yesterday while I reminisced the very many Father’s days we celebrated together, my mind wandered on to today, 20th of June, the day when our lives turned into an unending nightmare.
Memories of 20th June 2019 washed over me; how the court, subverted by this regime, even before starting the trial had already pre-decided the outcome. How the court blatantly disregarded due process and continued to carry out an ex-parte vitiated trial, not taking into account any evidence, disallowing us to bring in defence witnesses.
An absolute mockery of the justice system was made to protect the political duo and to ensure that your voice was silenced.
5 years on, we continue to face yet another vitiated trial, yet another attempt by this regime to silence you at any and every cost.
With every passing year, for each special day we remain separated, I write these posts in the hope that one day soon, you will read them from the comfort of our home ... These dark times a distant memory of the past.
So I sit down and pen my thoughts, all that we couldn’t say to you on the day …. words unsaid, moments unfelt, memories which we couldn’t make …
Dad, I hope you know that you have, and continue to be the only person Shan and I strive to be every single day of our lives.
You are our courage, the sane voice of reason in our hearts, our north star, our very heartbeat!
No words can truly justify how immensely proud we are for having you as our father...
Thank you for being the father we can only ever hope to deserve.
Today, as we mark the 4th year of your wrongful conviction, 5th year of your vindictive incarceration, I cannot help but wonder, if we as a family and we as a nation failed you.
You defended the voiceless, the thousands of victims of hate and violence, but when the time came to defend the defender, the very society you put your life on the line for, watched in deafening silence, paralysed in apathy, fear and in some cases greed.
You fought bravely, relentlessly, for over two decades, but we failed to protect you.
We failed you as a nation when we stood in silence, while an example was being made of an exemplary upright officer.
21 years down the line, we stand battered, bruised and bloodied, but your resolve to bring justice for the victims of the pogrom, to hold the people responsible for orchestrating the genocide remain absolute.
Today marks the 1750th day of your unjust incarceration ..
Our fight for justice continues ..
As you always say:
We will fight, we will resist, will we overcome … this I am certain!
