New Delhi [India], January 26: Tea is still a booming business in India because it never needed permission to exist. That’s the part most entrepreneurs miss. Tea doesn’t care about branding decks, pitch days, or lifestyle adjectives. It’s there at 6 a.m. in chipped cups, at railway platforms smelling like burnt milk, in offices where…

London [United Kingdom], January 24:  Emily Dickinson still feels modern because she never tried to be legible. That’s the part people keep circling without saying out loud. She didn’t smooth the edges. She didn’t explain herself. She didn’t care if you “got it,” and she definitely didn’t care if you liked her. “Tell all the…

New Delhi [India], January 24: Jaun Elia did not arrive in India quietly. He arrived amplified. Through a microphone that was not his. For most Indian readers under thirty-five, Jaun Elia did not come from libraries, serious Urdu study, or the long lineage of Progressive Writers. He came through Kumar Vishwas. That is not an…

For years, homes were treated like showroom checklists. Neutral sofa? Check. Minimal lighting? Check. A marble countertop nobody actually uses? Naturally. Somewhere along the way, living spaces became less about living and more about impressing people who don’t pay the EMIs. That era is quietly—and slightly smugly—ending.

In ordinary, civilian life, society has made a fairly clear judgment without ever holding a formal meeting about it. Guns are treated as dangerous, uncomfortable, and in need of constant control. Bows, arrows, and swords, meanwhile, live comfortably in museums, sports, hobbies, stories, and backyard conversations about “cool historical stuff.” This isn’t because people are…

Menswear didn’t collapse in 2026. It simply stopped asking for permission. Somewhere between oversized knits, thrifted denim, pearl necklaces worn without irony, and shoes that look like they were chosen for comfort rather than approval, Gen Z men have decided something radical: fashion is not a rulebook, it’s a language. And languages evolve when people…

New Delhi [India], January 24: Mirza Ghalib is treated like a relic. Framed. Sanitised. Quoted on calendars and WhatsApp forwards as if he were some polite uncle who happened to rhyme well. That version is convenient. It’s also false. The real Ghalib was argumentative, broke, vain, deeply insecure, intellectually arrogant, emotionally reckless, and almost permanently…

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 24: Once upon a time, the Indian holiday calendar revolved around one sacred event: the big annual trip. Planned months in advance, debated endlessly in family WhatsApp groups, negotiated around school schedules, office leaves, budget spreadsheets, and emotional blackmail. It was less a vacation and more a logistical operation. By 2026,…

London [United Kingdom], January 24:  People keep asking for comparisons because they want closure. A clean answer. Something they can screenshot and feel done with. International travel doesn’t work like that, and neither do credit cards once you leave your home currency and whatever consumer-protection fantasy you’re used to. So yes, this is listical. But…
