I love your narration so much. With this article, you've unmasked the self-righteous, self-proclaimed glitterati of Delhi. I can picture Deepika, perhaps a modernite. Oh, these people, sniper, would be offended if you compared its venom to their lethal one.
It's worth my time and energy. I love the piece. 🙌🏻❤️
this will be one of the most important essays in ochre sky for me… in my mind such stories are even more taboo than those about sexuality. Thank you for sharing it.
Loved the pace of this! The beautiful, glittering evening contrasted so sharply with the dirt that unfolded later. Left me with a yucky feeling! I guess she didn't know who she was up against!!
Wow. I am so sorry you had to go through that. But yes, we've all been there, making excuses for the other person, TRUSTING them because we are good people ourselves, and we cannot imagine that someone can be underhanded. I'm glad you found your way to justice, these stories do not always turn out so well. xo
Thanks Lani. Luckily this was early in my career so in a way I'm glad it happened then and not later. At least it helped me set up strong systems in place and ensure that a contract was always signed.
Thanks for sharing your learnings, Samira. The betrayal and the payback are both valuable.
Thank you Suruchi!

Thank you Anubha! I'm glad you enjoyed the essay. The said viper in question was not from Delhi but embodies all that is wrong with the world.
Such essential writing. Thank you for this, Samira.
Thank you Doel!
