On this sacred day of Saraswati Puja, when we celebrate knowledge, speech, and learning—and on the birth anniversary of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, a symbol of courage, resistance, and unapologetic truth—I’m sharing a story that asks an uncomfortable question:
What happens when perfection becomes silence?
The Girl Who Spoke Incorrect Mantras is a short mythological horror inspired by Devi Matangi, the goddess who listens to broken words, leftover prayers, and voices pushed to the margins. It is a dark, symbolic story about language, devotion, and the power of speaking differently.
This is not a traditional retelling, but a fictional exploration of faith, freedom, and resistance—values that feel especially meaningful today.
Shubho Saraswati Puja
Remembering Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose
May knowledge be fearless, and voices—imperfect or not—never be silenced.
Happy reading
