Hello everyone,
          	
          	I wanted to take a moment to talk to you all honestly and openly. My novel, The Theory of Empty Apartment will be on hold for some time. This story is very close to my heart, and right now I feel that I need to step back from it instead of rushing chapters that don’t reflect the emotions, depth, and care it deserves. I believe some stories need silence before they can speak again, and this is one of those moments.
          	
          	Please know that this pause is not because I’ve given up on the novel or forgotten about it. It’s simply a temporary stop so that when I return, I can do justice to the characters, the atmosphere, and the meaning behind every word. I truly appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.
          	
          	On a brighter note ✨
          	My short novel When the Goddess Woke with Her Name will be continued. I’m still very connected to that story, and I’m excited to keep updating it and sharing its journey with you. Your support and reactions motivate me more than you know, and I can’t wait for you to read what comes next.
          	
          	Thank you for staying with me, for reading, voting, commenting, and believing in my stories even during pauses. Your support means more to me than words can explain. This isn’t a goodbye to The Theory of Empty Apartment—just a quiet pause before it finds its voice again.
          	
          	Take care, and I’ll see you soon in the next chapter

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

Hello everyone 
          
          I want to share something important and exciting with you all.
          
          I’ll soon be publishing a new book titled When the Goddess Woke With Her Name — a dark, mythological horror novella exploring divine rage, erased goddesses, and justice that doesn’t ask for permission.
          
          This story is intense, symbolic, and deeply rooted in themes of power, faith, and fear. It is not a retelling, but an original universe inspired by forgotten divine archetypes and the idea that some gods were silenced—just like some women.
          
          ✨ Alongside this book, I’ll also be publishing The Theory of the Empty Apartment — a very different story in tone, but equally unsettling. It explores isolation, psychological dread, and the quiet horror of absence. If you like stories that linger long after you close the app, this one is for you.
          
          Both works will be released here on Wattpad, chapter by chapter.
          
          ⚠ Please note:
          These stories are written for mature readers and deal with heavy themes. Content warnings will be provided.
          
          Thank you for reading, supporting, and trusting my stories.
          I hope you walk into these worlds with an open mind—and leave them changed.
          
          More details coming soon.
          Stay with me.

 ANNOUNCEMENT — PLEASE READ
          
          Hi everyone 
          
          I’m currently editing and refining my ongoing novel, The Theory of the Empty Apartment.
          This includes tightening scenes, improving pacing, and strengthening the psychological layers of the story—without changing its core mystery or direction.
          
          ️ What this means for you:
          
          Some chapters may be temporarily unavailable or slightly revised.
          
          The plot remains the same, but the experience will be sharper, darker, and more immersive.
          
          New chapters will resume soon, better than before
          
          This story means a lot to me, and I want it to be the best version possible for you—slow-burn tension, subtle clues, and an atmosphere that stays with you.
          
          Thank you for your patience, trust, and constant support.
          If you’re new here, now is the perfect time to add the story to your library so you don’t miss the updates
